                                It is a common misconception among novice gardeners that all seeds must be soaked prior to planting for successful germination. The truth is, while some seeds benefit greatly from a pre-soaking treatment to speed up the process, do you have to soak all seeds? Absolutely not; for many, it is unnecessary and can even be harmful.
