Pre-Planting Treatments: Our trials showed Trifolium longipes to be a seed type that grows well without a cold treatment to stimulate germination. We saw no calculable benefit to a 90 day cool (38F) treatment but instead saw a decrease to 15% germination compared to the 17% germination when placed directly into the growth chamber (75F days and 50F nights).
