 POOR GERMINATIONJul 22, 2011
By K. Fedale
THESE are apparently quite difficult to grow from seed. I have a decently green thumb and I only had 2 germinate and they were too spindly to survive.

 CAREFUL ABOUT PLANTING BLACKBERRY SEEDSJan 18, 2012
By Obsessive shopper
I think it's great that they're offering these seeds from thornless blackberries, but novice gardeners should really be cautioned about what they are getting.
These will not necessarily grow in your area, will not necessarily produce good fruit, and may not even be thornless. That's what happens when you plant blackberry seeds.
Most people plant blackberries as cuttings from a known cultivar. That way you know what kind of fruit you're going to get, how thorny the plants will be, and whether they will grow well in your climate. There are even some varieties now that are "primocane" so that they can grow berries on new branches (that's almost a requirement north of zone 5, because the old branches rarely make it through the winter).
These seeds should be fine if you live in prime blackberry country or are interested in experimenting to see if you can find the next great blackberry cultivar. In fact, this small investment -- if you are really lucky, could make you a lot of money if you end up with a thornless, hardy, productive bush.

Didnt germinateMar 21, 2012
By Mick
These are supposed to be pre-stratified which means they should germinate and grow with warm temps and moisture. 1 and a half weeks and no germination in soil or paper towels, not holding out much hope they ever will. waste of money
