Trouble Germinating Pigeon Peas

gardencat999 · July 8, 2016

Does anyone here grow pigeon peas?

I got some in a trade last year, but I haven't been able to germinate a single one. I guess the seeds may not be viable, but the seeds haven't molded or gone mushy like beans usually do when they are dead.

For germinating seeds, I put them in a tupperware container with moist paper towels, and I put the container somewhere warm (usually on top of the fridge).

Am I just doing something wrong? Any insight would be helpful!
