The Seed Collectors Thread

[TheLastWood]

I wouldn't let them touch but idk. I don't use desicant at all.

If you had all your vials in a tackle box, and had desicant in the tackle box outside of the vials it will have the same effect. Its nit goint to be more himid inside the vials than it will be inside the tackle box.

Haven't weigh'd the anesthesia, still pretty wet. Gonna be dank. Idk if it didn't like the 85* temps or if it normally dreads out but it did. I like it, remibds me of livers or cheese it didn't do it till the last week or two.

@cmt I ordered those glass vials to store my Beans in.. I foundem on ebay for dumb cheap.. i did it like ~2 weeks ago... There comin from China though and its takin forever to get here..
I cant believe im so fuckin excited to organize my collection its ridiculous!!!

1 question though, everything that I've read and also that I've seen so far in commercial seed package when shipped with silica gel says to me that that the two, seed and silica, should never touch.. However in the pictures of your collection you clearly dont follow these rules...
I was wondering if you think i would be wasting my time separating them with a piece of cotton?

some banks ship theres in those small vials that have cotton in them, which i've always liked, just a pain in the ass sometimes as the beans can get lost in the cotton balls, but other than that, i like the cotton personally...

and when you're all done with your's, why don't you come on over and help me organize my mess that i like to call my bean collection.. i've got plenty of bud to smoke us out the entire time..

Have any of you ever germed seeds in those rly thick absorbant paper towels? Only 3/6 dpd x br have germed so far, wondering if it has to do with the paper towels. There great for cleaning.

i've never used them, but i don't see why they would screw up germing seeds, unless maybe they have some sort of chemicals in them for cleaning??? just a thought..

Yah i know what u mean as soon as i saw cmt's setup i was like I gotta step my game up.. He had it organized by Reg/Fem then by Breeder and then each vial had a label with a # which i assume corresponded to a Master List. Its a simple system but Extremely Efficient... As of right now i just have mine in a Tupperware container with silica..
But as soon as my Vials get here, ima grab me a Tackle Box, a Label Maker and get to work.. and just like Dizzle whenever i start to do something i get super OCD so its gonna be one Fine lookin collection....
Yah i love it when they come in those lil 1.5ml vials with silica with the foam inserts, all my dinafems came like that...
Thx wood for the advice..

never really thought baout the chem factor....good call mang.....what i noticed with the thicker PTs is that if i dont get to the seed right away the taproot grows into the cloth shit....then i gotta perform battlfield surgery to extract the lil fucker....i like the shitty cheap thin stuff for germing, i just fold one sheet into a 2" x 4" peice and stick it in a baggie

i'm a printer by trade dizzle... but for my last grow, i went all crazy and went into the computers at work and printed up labels for all of the plants that i was growing...
for ex, it would say... mk ultra, indica dom, og kush/ affy.. 65 days...
i would love to see the look on someone's face when they find that file on the computer and try and figure out wtf it all means as i no longer work there...

Thx skunkie.no chems racer but I've noticed in the past, when I have 2 or 3 paper towels stacked up to keep strains seperated, the one on the bottom sometimes won't germ rite.

So iwas wonderin if there just to thick.

I usually use the crappy cheap ones that you could print newspaper on too.

Bounty is a reputable company so id doubt theres anything in there but Wood..
However they do use chlorine to bleach most paper towels, since the Quilted Quicker Picker Upper is so frickin Thick it might have more chlorine residue leftover than most of the thin paper towels would...(not really a concern)

 

[gudkarma]

i use those thick towels.

love them as i only need to wet them once & put it under an upside down bowl.

i DO like to leave the towel "krinkled" so air passes through it.

for some reason, i've had similar issue once with mold vs. the thick paper towel ...ever since i gave some breathing room never had the problem again.

i dunno why i do that to but i leave some air pockets as well....i guess it jus makes sense

 

[TheLastWood]

Thanks gud, that's a good idea. I have checked on em a few times, pretty much the only way to fuck up a germ is to drown em.

 

[jkahndb0]

you could always leave a straw inbetween the paper towels...

 

[Dizzle Frost]

thats to big, id worry about the tap root catchin to much air

 

[jkahndb0]

Yah good point, i was thinkin more coffee stirrer straw less Mc'd-s gigantor Straw though....
