I don't care for those peat pellets but other then that it sounds like you have good conditions for starting them. They usually sprout within about 10 days when fresh. I soak the seeds for several hours in warm water before planting then barely cover them with soil. I keep the soil moist until they sprout. Once they are up and the seed coat has dropped I let the soil dry a little between waterings. I have better luck without bottom heat as lomg as the room is comfortably warm. You might want to try just starting them in a good potting mix instead of the pellets.

Thanks for the advice!
Do you think the sprout is dead?

blutarski I sent you an email through GW.

I've been trying my luck at growing Adenium from seed as well, but having trouble at a different stage of thier growth. I get about 90% success of the seeds germinating and sprouting to the point were they've got three to four leaves. After that they don't seem to grow anymore, and start to fall over at the soil line and then slowly wither away. Below the soil the root/base of the caudex seems to shrivel up as if it isn't getting enough water, but I've been keeping it watered about 2-3 times a week. I live in Central Florida, so we've got the heat they like and I grow mine outdoors.

My theory is that I'm over watering after they sprout the first leaves, and may be causing root rot.

What do yall think?
