Looking for Brahea Edulis
So some reason I am having a helluva time finding B. Edulis in shippable sizes here in the U.S. BC seems to have them but unless you live in California and want something with like 3 ft of trunk seems you are out of luck.

Cleaning Phoenix Dactylifera Seeds
I have tried multiple times to germinate true date palm seeds in the past and have had all of them grow mold. The reason being more than likely I left too much flesh on the seeds and maybe more water retention in my mix. So my question is what is the best method of removing the flesh on the seeds ...
