To update the theme ... Unfortunately my Cephalotus failed and now are dead!
But new hope is rising! After about four months and thirty seeds, this is the result:

They are now in a plastic box with transparent cover. I think the other seeds will not grow.
Is it already time to begin gradually to remove the lid, or to put them in a terrarium? I am open to any ideas and suggestions.
Thank you!

That does not seem like a very high germination rate. I get 90%+ germination from fresh seed, but it can take several months for them to appear so it would be worth waiting a while longer.
