I´ll not waste any seeds by tests, so am curious to know if someone has experiences using coconut water to germinating pumpkin seeds. What solution in what stage?

One of the recent catalogs is promoting coconut shell grindings as the finest of all seed starting mediums. Guess that is one level up from a coconut water soak.....in which event I shall contine my kelp soak with H2O2 added for about two hours. This got me three and four days to emergence. Germination must have been just about instant or actually begun in the soak.

I would save the Coconut Water for a Pina Colada, and just go with the simple soak method. With your choice of addetives. There are as many methods to germinating as there is growing. Each has their own personal preference.
