Has anyone grown red huckleberry from seeds in here? Any recommendations for starting them properly? (pawb.social)

They grow natively, here, but not many native plant sellers seem to sell them, citing their difficulty in cultivating them.

I soaked 30 seeds for 24 hours, then planted them in a seed starter greenhouse with peat under a grow light.

I wouldn't bother with seeds tbh. Starting seeds is playing genetic lottery, and you might end up having weak plants.

I'd use wild occuring ones if I were you. The whole selection game has already been played there for you.

You can also create a "bandage" and keep it wet. That will cause roots to form there
