Clear plastic wrap should be used to cover the pots. Germination can take up to ten days. After they have germinated move them into a cool, shaded place where the temperature stays around 70 degrees Fahrenheit.

When the seedlings reach maturity, you can transplant them. Take off the plastic wrap and transfer the seedlings to larger containers. Pour the potting mix into each container. Add gravel or pebbles to drain excess moisture. As necessary, you can add more potting material. Place the containers in indirect or sunny light. Mist the plants daily to prevent wilting.
