I recently read somewhere that cinnamon is a natural fungicide.
These ichang papeda seeds looked shriveled up when I got them. They looked like they may have been harvested before they were ripe. But, Ive never seen these seeds before so I dont know.
After a short time a fungus or bacteria started to make them look fuzzy. So, I put some cinnamon powder on them.
The fuzziness went away but I thought they looked dead. The dark red-brown cinnamon didn't help the look.
Though I gave up on them I didn't throw them away. I noticed today that one of them had started to germinate.
It's a good day.
