Hi Cassie, I know very little, but I do know that they must be soaked before planting and placed in a sealed container in a very warm situation to germinate. The seeds if they're fresh can take anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months, hope that helps you a bit

good information John...On a side note I was just reading an artical how they "succeeded in germinating a date seed nearly 2,000" Here is a link to the story...I found it very interesting..
