Oh dear, that’s bad luck. It might be the compost you are using ... I use Seed and Potting compost mixed with Vermiculite, and keep it slightly damp. Hope that works for you.

Thanks, I’ll try that. Do you germinate in a heated propagater?

You don't need the propagator. Just sprinkle the seeds over damp compost and mist everyday with good lighting. They should sprout in a week or so.

i have the same problem with most of the seeds I plant, Sheila. i've decided I don't send enough love when I sow them! I shall buy plugs in future.

No Andrea, just in my greenhouse which is unheated but gets quite warm in the sunshine.

Ok , thank you .
