seeds-germination Saving seed from dried pods

I once read that you wanna soak Tepins in a mild acid before trying to germinate them.  The idea was that they have a tougher outer shell so they can withstand being in a bird´s gut.  It sounded like BS to me, but by all accounts, Tepin seeds are supposedly among the hardest to germinate.  I´ll be giving it a go next season, though.... got some Tepin seeds from Windchicken.  Can´t wait to see how that goes...

Great thread , I like science , but based on real experiences/experiments , not hypothetical mumbojumbo. My Guajillos are all from dried pods imported from Mexico.
