Grogu! One week in water germination and I have almost 100% germination. Now, as long as I don't kill them transferring them to the pot, I'll be good.

This is a filiformis that I have grown from seedbank seed. It is just under a year old.

How long did you have them in stratification and how long has it been since they have been sown. Sarr002 may be pretty old but RAS OP should be fresh.

4 weeks stratification, 8 weeks since they have been sown. In hindsight, I should have left them in the fridge longer. I usually stratify sarr seeds for 2-3 months, but I got impatient this time.

Sounds like they have a meeting with the outdoors this winter.

I tried Sarr 002 last year with no luck.
However, I did fridge strat Ras OP seeds for 6 weeks at 38 degrees F, sown two weeks ago, and noticed a few sprouts a couple days ago. This is the first success for Sarr seeds that I have stratified myself.

I've had luck with germination then, when the seedlings were almost established, I dropped the entire pot.

Interesting, how long ago was this? I tried and the whole pot got covered in algae within 2 months.

An update on germination:

Still stratifying Sarr 'Lynda Butt' OP

Tons of germination with FTS OP, along with some amazing maroon color inside the traps

The 10 G17 OP seeds got flooded with Distilled water by my clumsy hands, so a 0% chance I'll get anything from that

Drosera Binata Var. Multifida was a failure(no germination after 6 weeks of sowing)

Drosera Spatulata 'Fraser Island' took a while but I still got close to 100 percent germination

Mixed Capes were a failure, got 1 or 2 sprouts about 2 months later but I doubt those were Capes, probably just some other seeds that got mixed in.

EDIT: Forgot to add D. (Hercules x Self) x Big pink: Lotsa germination, awesome color.
