These 2 brothers are some of my longest & dearest friends. The brother to my left is retired & lives near the beach in Ventura Ca just a few miles north of LA & surfs every day.8) His brother, to my right, is a retired machinist from Area51. I have know them for over 25 years & I have tired & tried to get him to talk, but he still will not discuss what he worked on there. All I have been able to get out of him is that he reported to work at Las Vegas airport & flew in fake commercial airliners out to Groom Lake. He's a trippy dude.o_O

Not much happening here @redeyedfrog ..threw a ghost train haze (cheers ;) ) and a white rhino in paper towel tonite
Gifted one wonder woman seedling to a very gd friend who done me a favour on the weekend.

After I yanked a few slow starting seedlings I ended up with 1× Barneys Farm Critical Kush, 2× Boddhi Buddhas Hand, 2× WOS S. Africa Kwazulu, 3× Sensi Shiva Skunk, 1× TGA Chernobyl, 2× TGA Conspiracy Kush, 2× TGA Dr Who, 1× TGA Quantum Kush, 1× TGA Space Candy.

Funny enough the landrace sativas (Kwazulu) are the slowest of the mix. The leaves are very slim blades.

I cooked a quantum kush seedling earlier forgetting to pull them out of full sun at only 3 days. Replaced with another Boddhi

Regarding germinating I used to use the paper towel method too but last year I started planting straight into soil and it has been good, no issues whatsoever.

Your right with the way you do it..i just use paper towel more for the fact im.only.home a few days a week so it speeds things up for me...but having said that ive killed em before cos i let the taproot grow to long to put in soil properly

Had em in paper towel for 48 hrs last time but misjudged one sr71..it had a taproot 4x longer than any other seed out of 9 and i reckon thats why she didnt survive the transplant to soil..hell that could have been "the" pheno....

I've found if you soak the seeds in a jar of water, they will float at first, then gradually sink to the bottom, when they are saturated with water. The ones still floating 12 hours are likely bad seeds, but I leave them 24+ to be sure and then still plant them anyway, lol. I generally find they will sink in a few hours. After that there is nothing to do but plant them in most medium and leave them be. I have great success starting seedlings that way. Just popped 29 of 32 and then had 2 weak ones not make it. The method works great, at least for me. Popped these a couple weeks ago.
