100% germination rate from 1000 year old seed? Amazing! My seed collections don't stay that viable.

The trick is to use phytohormones to prime the seed [1]. It’s a relatively new technique that's plant specific so there aren’t any commercial products available to the general public AFAIK but we should see them hit the market in the next decade.
