Last September I bought around 150 Monkey Puzzle seeds. These were pretty easy to germinate, all I did was:-
1 – soak them in water for 24 hours
2 – Planted them about 1 cm deep in John Innes number 2 soil in 7 cm pots
3 – watered them occasionally
Around 140 of them have germinated and are growing very happily, here are some pictures that were taken around 9 months after first putting them into soil: -
