Morus nigra, commonly known as Black Mulberry, can be germinated using the stratification method. Start by soaking the seeds in water for 24 hours, and then place them in a container of moist soil. Store the container in a refrigerator for 60-90 days. After the stratification period is complete, remove the container from the refrigerator and place it in a warm, sunny area. Ensure that the soil is kept moist and that the temperature is between 70-75�F. The seeds should start to germinate within 2-4 weeks.
Some of plants may have very have specific germination requirements that may not be covered in these general instructions.
Many seeds require pre-treatment before sowing which we try to list here when we can, but this information may not be present here. Germination times and germination temperatures are to be a guide only. Many factors can DRASTICALLY affect this.
It's always a good idea to research the specific germination requirements from multiple sources for each plant before attempting to grow them from seed.
