Most of those will cross polinate with each other.

Some people soak seeds in tea, others just in water for a while. Some place them in moist paper towels an place some warm. I just put them in my rockwool or perlite which has been soaked and place them on a heat pad.

Once they have sprouts put them under light.

Good Luck.

I soaked half of mine in water for ~24 hours and didn't soak the other half. The half I soaked are definitely sprouting more quickly. Keep the soil moist, spray it with a spray bottle when it gets dry, and keep it as close to 85-86 degrees Fahrenheit (30 Celsius). You should use something with a dome to retain moisture, and I would recommend a heating mat hooked up to a thermostat with the probe in the soil to maintain the temperature. Also, don't use a potting mix with a lot of fertilizers, they will burn the seedlings. Use a seed starting mix that is fine and loose.
