Method of germinating drosera and pings?

[carnivorousDan]

I have just received my seeds from Jakub Štěpán and am looking on starting them straight away. Any suggestions on the most successful way of germinating the seeds below-

Drosera burmanni

Drosera capensis

Drosera spataulata

P.Vulgaris

I read for the drosera it is best to use soaking peat moss with cling film over at around 22degrees

For the P.Vulgaris am i best to germinate the same way as leaf pulling?

Any help asap would be greatly appreciated.

You can even try germinating in just a glass of water, according to some people is even better, because you can , after a couple of weeks, take just the seeds germinated and repot them on the soil 
By the way, the method you described is fine too :)

The three Drosera should germinate readily just placed on the growing medium. As for P. Vulgaris, I believe a period of cold stratification is required before germination occurs.

Just to show how hardy and weedy the capensis can be - I probably had some seeds mix in when preparing the soil mix for a mini-bog in a glass container.

Some seeds germinated in pockets of air more them an inch deep.

A quote from the ICPS website;

 

 

The method that uses the least space in the refrigerator is to place the seeds in a small plastic bag with a few large pinches of damp peat. Keep the seed in coldest part of the refrigerator for 8 to 12 weeks.

You don't need to stratify these Drosera in the fridge. They germinate readily almost anywhere

I think he meant for the pinguicula
