Firstly, I  do let them soak over night in room temperature, reverse-osmosisd' water, next morning find the sinking ones(Hopefully, all) and "toss" them in my "Growing Medium:" which is.

 NEW ZELAND LONG FIBER SPHAGNUM MOSS!

It has anti-bacterial/anti-fungal agents in it

P.S.- APPARENTLY, it was used in the early years to pack wounds in soldiers because of this protection it had to offfer

So it got me thinking, considering I have a great supply of this (living) product, I decided to give it a whirl, and ouila!

I have my carnivorous plants implanted in my LFSP nursery and it seems to be doing wonderful

It is a win win as you can tell
The seeds are touching the moss, and getting whatever amount of water they need, as well as circulating air to prevent mold, and lastly, because they are not necessarily "Covered"  the t-5s give them what they need.

So far so good. all seeds seem to be germinating! 

Feel free to ask any question

p.s.   WHEN I NEED TO transplant them to their own pots, I can easily do so considering the moss is essentially living thread, I can simply wiggle the root out COMPLETELY attached, and the moss just takes ovr that vacant spot to restart my process

Nice work Brenden thank you for sharing.
Do you plant or berry  the seeds in the LFSP or just toss them on top and let nature do the work?

Toss the  haha I meant that  literally. As I spray the moss to keep its initial  moisture at desired level, the seeds just kind of bounce in place, I am kind of proud  of this find, haha, and I was SOOOOOO pumped to share something  solid with you guys!

I have done many other seeds in the long fiber spagnum moss. I had a tomato seed from a whopper sandwich, as well as lemon seeds, and fire bush, and last but not least my blue salvia. The second picture is of my hearty hybrid, in which I have no idea who the parents will be.
Oh, and a blackberry  seed from  a jelly jar hahaha
