Article: Talk with your local gardening center about ordering bamboo seeds. Getting bamboo seeds can sometimes be a challenge because they must be quarantined for a period if they come from outside the United States. If you get a crop of seeds, make sure to plant them as soon as possible to increase their viability.  It's also a good idea to order more seeds than you actually intend to plant. This will increase your odds of growing mature plants, even if some seeds fail. Only buy seeds from a seller who can provide documentation showing that they follow all quarantine procedures established by the government. Fill up a shallow glass container up with water that is right around 85° F (30° C). Place your seeds into the water and let them sit undisturbed for between 12-24 hours. This kickstarts the germination process for your seeds and increases the odds of planting success.  Use a food thermometer to verify that the temperature doesn't get too hot or it could cook your seeds and ruin the possibility of planting. If you don't have a container handy, you can also place the seeds in a bag and fill it with water. Place the container in a warm spot to keep the temperature from dropping too quickly. It also helps to cover the container to keep the heat trapped longer. Use a wooden skewer to create a small hole in the top of each pellet. Then, place 1 seed in the center of the pellet. Use your finger to push the pellet down into the peat enough so that it is fully covered.

Purchase bamboo seeds from a reputable seller. Soak your bamboo seeds in water for 1 full day. Plant a single seed in the center of each peat pellet.
Article: Add ¾ cup (51 g) of French roast or another dark roast coffee beans and 5 green cardamom pods to a coffee grinder. Pulse the mixture until it's finely ground, which should take approximately 15 seconds.  You can find green cardamom pods at Asian grocery stores, spice markets, and many general grocery stores. Online retailers also sell it. If you don't have a coffee grinder, you can use your blender to grind the coffee mixture. Once the coffee beans and cardamom are ground together, add the mixture to the filter of a drip coffee maker. Next, fill the top of the coffee machine with water and brew the coffee according to the manufacturer's instructions. When the coffee is brewed, transfer it to a large heatproof pitcher. Let it sit out until it reaches room temperature, which should take about 30 to 60 minutes. Once the coffee reaches room temperature, place the pitcher in the refrigerator. Allow it to chill for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
