 Now we need to get our or paper towel and wrap our seeds in them. Wet the paper towel and put it in the plastic bag. Make sure the plastic bag is sealed tight, and put it in the fridge. Your seeds should take about a month to germinate but check every few weeks and wet again if dry. Your seeds will start to have little white sprouts coming out of them soon enough thats when you know there ready for planting.

I do not understand what the white plastic bag does in the step 3 photos. Can you explain please? Thank you. Nice tutorial.

I believe the bag is to hold in the moisture. Otherwise your seeds are just sitting on a dry towel and will never germinate.
