Stratification: which fungicide?

It's suggested to add a fungicide when using stratification to prepare seeds. Just wondering which fungicide others are using & what would be recommended.
Cheers

Hi drac0,
i recently stratified some apple seeds using a coir seed raising mix, i have also heard,of people,using sphagnum moss for this. These substrates have their own anti fungal properties. I forgot,about them in my fridge and checked them by chance a month or so later, the coir held the moisture, there was no fungal outbreak and all seeds had germinated.
I'll leave it for,others to suggest chemical antifungal agents.
cheers,
Jabobo

Fongarid is the best for seeds and cuttings
