have what I think are p. Incarnata seeds that I want to grow. I read that soaking them for 1 or 2 days and planting them very shallow is the way to go. I also read it could take months for them to germinate!

Anyone ever grown passionflower from seeds? How should I do it?

Yes but they took ages to sprout! About a month.
i just had them in potting soil outside and kept moist.
They never had any vigor to them so i planted in the ground where the grew somewhat then they both died a few years later and both looked shit from seedlings to half way up the fence.
I was lead to believe they grew fast but the two i grew were lophs in disguise lol.
maybe they had some soft or disease.....

Im keen to try again though.

Sow them in a 3gal pot. Cover lightly with grit (chicken grit, screened builder's sand, etc.). Put 'em outside in part shade and wait. Transplant when they have two-three sets of true leaves into 4" pots. Grow 'em up til they've fully rooted through the medium, then plant 'em out in a sunny spot. Easy, but slow to germ and bulk up. Once you get 'em to up to size they grow like the weeds they are.

I just ripped off a vine and put it in my aeroponic system. It took 2 weeks for it to sprout tiny little roots.

Before the aeroponic system i had i used this guide and it helped
