Germination
Place the seeds on the surface of the growing mix. Mix inoculum in a half cup of water, and use all of the water to water the seeds. Cover the seeds with a very thin layer of soil, as to just bury the seeds, then lightly moisten top soil with a spritz bottle (plain water), as to not disturb the seeds below. Place the container in the fridge for 4-6 weeks, and then bring them to room temperature to germinate. Water when needed, to keep the soil consistently moist.
Once big enough to handle, and grow in a sunny location.
These seeds can also be planted in the location that they are to be grown, best during the wet season. Rake the soil, and sprinkle seeds. Water them in, and make sure to keep the location consistently moist until the plants begin to grow. Once established they are drought tolerant.
