I started germinating some seeds too. I did 2xbanana og x sour bubble,2xdouble barrel og and 2 fire og and so far after 24 hours the only ones that sent crack were the db og. I'll give it a couple days then I'll try 2 more.

As for the fire og and banana og x sour bubble they are in soil now waiting for my babies to sprout.
man, those banana og x sour bubbles sound way beyond bomb, i'm dying to see how they do for you wyte.. what breeder do they come from, dhs? or someone else??

Oo I'm burning to germ some more seeds.

I got 4 confidential cheese seedlings from rp. 1 had the embryo shit dry closed around its leaves and I couldn't get it off so its not gonna make it I think. Then I have 2 armageddon from homegrown, and 2 nl freebies. All seedlings.

I can't wait for my bubbas and jaffa cakes. The vortex mom is amazing.

K I just threw 16 more seeds into water.

5 killing kush - sannies
5 nycd x kolossus- sannies
6 sweet pink grapefruit x arcata trainwreck - riot seeds (fingers crossed)

I don't know they were given as freebies. It sounds too bomb that those had to get grown out ASAP.

I got big plans fir these new strains. Im thinking about trying some more db og because I don't think the 2 now are going to crack.

i'll have a bean once in awhile that i'll have a problem with, not to mention the zero for 5 that i got from alphakronik.. i was just wondering, and wasn't trying to offend wbw at all, i'd just like to know what all he does is all..
i know that sometimes a simple adjustment can make all of the difference in the world.

I've never had to scuff seeds up in a match box but I've heard of ppl that do.

Imo if you soak them in a cup of water for no more than 20 hours, and then wet a paper towel SQUEEZE OUT THE WATER then put the seeds in the wet paper towel and if they still don't crack then its the seeds fault. I put them in the paper towel and in a tuperware in the dark and that's more optimal conditions than in soil itself.

Some seeds are just duds, maybe didn't mature long enough, I always worry when I get a package in the mail and its warm when I grab it. Who knows how long it baked in the mail truck.

yeah i meant no harm, just wondering as well to see if i could help :)
 
I just dump them in a shot glass for 24 hours usually by this time they are cracked if not then after the 24 hours they go into paper towel in a zippo baggie on the back of my cable box. I only had 5-6 seeds out of say 200 not crack like this.

Hey cmt will u explain to me a bit your revegging experience? This plushberry, I think I may have left too much b ud on it, I didn't realise the new growth comes from the buds, and this thing is going to be (already is) a dense tangled mess of foliage. I have been steadily pruning the deformed leaves but I don't want to actually cut the new growths, such as the stems and many growth tips coming out.

I plan to fill my 25 site cloner with plushberry clones, take another 5 or 10 and refridgerate them just in case, and then flower the mother again, and select a new mother from one of my clones.

I'm worried the mother will be a ticking mold bomb with the amount of new growth.
 
I can live with 2 not terming I will start to worry after 5-6 did not crack but hopefully it does not go that far. I just checked on them and still nothing so I'm dumping two more to see what's up.

yup, i know exactly what ur talkin about...its the only shitty part of revegging, gettin it trimmed up. what you have to do is get a razor blade and shave all the buds off, once you get a few nodes of new growth just shave everything off the stem under those nodes. as the plant grows out, trim it up a little more to get the shape you want. the deformed leaves arent a big deal, you can let those stay...i always do...but getting the buds shaved off is the important thing...i ran in to mold cuz i left too many buds and didnt shave em off soon enough on my first reveg. and you have to cut a lot of the smaller new growth off to avoid that tangled mess that you mentioned.

what i do now, is leave a small branch or 2 at the bottom of my plant where not much light gets to it...those branches are very under developed when the plant is harvested and you dont run into the too much bud problem.

if any of that doesnt make sense let me know, im fuckin baked on some plushberry and dpd with some plushberry hash mixed in :)

Hehe I love my plushberry oil man. One of my fav hashes yet. The jack herer is more oily, but my plushberry oil came out full crumble.

Edit, so your saying once I get some good new growth tips, prune everything else? Including the buds that will keep shooting out new growth?

yup. you need to get rid of all that shit to allow some branches to bulk up...or else you'll just have a bunch skinny little twigs.

Right on bro thanks for the tips.

Man I'm still itching to pop some more beans. I may drop 5 more. I know it sounds like a lot but I was 1/5 on anestthesia and 0/5 on cali con gear.

If I get the same ratio even with the 16 I popped ill only have 3 or 4 females tops.

Just came back from posting a little package , i was suprised to hear the cashier say "whats in it" now i were nt expecting that - felt like all the lights had dimmed and a big spotlight was on me..:)
I aint the nervy type trust me but it just caught me off gaurd .
Anyway i responded with a cool "beads" "handmade" :) Now i get why sannies is like that. The cashier then told me you have state whats in side the package if its going out anywhere outside the E.U or it will be opened by customs..
