That is awesome!! I've read this with some plants... I know that Elderberry takes over a year at least. Also I had an interesting experience with some MJ this past summer. I traded seeds with someone and the ones I got took a lot longer to sprout than the ones I've been using. I came to realize that these were CBD medicinal plants!! And that the longer sprouting time and slower growth were part of the plant's makeup. Your sprouts feel like love!! Good job for your patience. Ps I love your seed/gardener's catalog. I followed and resteemed you so I can refer back to the catalog.
Thanks for the warning :) I actually just put some elderberry seeds out a few weeks ago. I had collected them two seasons ago, so they are a little older too. I will be patient with them :) Very interesting about MJ vs CBD... it seems that nature is always open to trying things in new ways and see what works :) Thanks for the compliments about the seed catalog! It has been a fun project and very educational for us!
