Very good germination rate.

I have never been able to germinate oregano seeds, and I don't know if it was the temperature or the viability of the seeds. After trying for two years, this summer, I decided to try with oregano seeds from ATG. I put them on a wet paper towel in a ziplock bag to test the viability and they sprouted beautifully! Over 90% germination rate and it took 5 days to start germinating. Thanks for the amazing seeds!

Seeds Germinated in a Night

I was quite astonished that the Oregano seeds germinated within a night in my hydroponic setup. I have read many complaints online that oregano seeds are very hard to germinate in our weather but these seeds showed their true leaves in the 4th day. Now I got almost 40-50 oregano seedlings with their second set of true leaves in just 2 weeks. The seeds were delivered very fast and in a nice looking packet. Also the free samples were chosen sincerely. Thank you allthatgrows, I will definitely recommend these.

Germination Rate is Good

I bought oregano and thyme seeds from this site. I also tried to germinate oregano and thyme bought from other websites. But none of them grew. Maybe i was doing germination process wrong. So I thought germination rate of thyme and oregano is also very poor, because i had zero success rate with germinating rosemary. but seeds from this website showed very good germination rate around 40%. Both thyme and oregano germinated on the 3rd or the 4th day itself. First i tried with controlled setting with indoor lighting with LED bulb for 24 hours with optimum moisture level. germination was good. also tried germinating it in outdoor setting without plastic wrap or cover. i just spread the seeds on the soil and did not cover the seeds with soil or medium and routinely sprayed water on them to retain moisture and left it in the open sun .Both indoor and outdoor germination was good. So try germinting in dry winter months with mild hot sun and the germination will be good.
