Nice my buddy had not great rates with the popscotti, think he only got 2 to germ. I got 5 out of 6 of the monkey berries above soil. All my compound pink certz popped and are above soil as well.

Ya I picked up most of the compound grape gas crosses discounted from glo when he was still up and running- I got good deal on them. I'm pretty stoked for the monkey berries...have a great feeling about this strain, should have a few terpy phenos with the strawberries & cream crossed up to the grease monkey

How did this one end up for you? What kind of terps?
Hey guys, first post. Not trying to derail anyone. Trying for a side bar on my situation. Sorry but I’m a little upset and wanted to let you know what’s going on with my recent purchase of Exotic Genetix ; Next level . (Kushco OG x Scotty 2 Hotty)
I’ve popped 4 , and only one has popped a tail long enough to take to dirt. Two didn’t pop, and one just barely poked tail out.
All three of Another breeders gear; fire OG x Bubba popped right next to them. Has any one had problems with germ rates? I got two packs, and never this bad of germ rate in a while.
Sorry to be a bummer , but this is happening.
Always use the same germ process.

whats youre choice of germinating for seedliongs? i always use moist paper towel and bag and stuff it between my wifi router and modem and in two days all seeds have sprouted and strong tap root.
Plastic bag wet towel seed between plastic of bag and towel, so I can see seed . Hang vertically in warm dark basement upper 70’s , virtually everything pops. Saw an old Gardner do it this way, and he got great results. I never do it any other way now.
Just Checked again and in 2/4 now.The remaining might be slow to germ. But I put little faith in new seeds past 48 hrs. These are a new drop basically from exotic. I usually am ready to put into dirt at 36hrs. So far, three fire OG x bubba, and 1of 4 next level, exotic genetix, are in the dirt.
thanks for asking!

you can also use hydrogen peroxide as well helps keeop the seeds cleaned and also helps soften then seed caseing makin git easier for the root to burst out. plus keep em white
1to10 ratio for hydrogen peroxide?
I’ve tried it before but don’t remember any results. I start popping more stuff right away and move on if it doesn’t take in a day or two. I bought two packs of Next level, and just don’t want this kind of disappointment to continue.
Maybe I’m expecting to much, but I haven’t had any problems like this until now, it happens to be when I forked out the most I spent on beans in a while.

to be fair i do 50/50 and if its concentrate i do like three drops out of the h202 store bottle cause h202 is swtored better in a dark containor rather then the white one they usually come in. light degrades it. sodium percarbonate or whatyever powdered hydrogen peroxide is works the best for concentrates and is cheaper. and youre towel should be moist not soaked. also ive been told cinnamon helps seeds as it keeps bad things away fromthe seeds as well.

Monkey berries are moving. Fastest seed plants out of the other stuff I'm running my from rado and compound. Germinated these seed during the new moon...they just popped above soil around Sept 5 and here they are now

people tend to overthink germin' seeds....what has always worked for me is I was my hands throughly, grab some bounty paper towels wet them under my kitchen faucet, ring them out so they're not sopping wet but just a nice damp...throw seeds in...fold up wet paper towel and put into a large ziplock bag above my fridge, within 2-3 days tops I they have tails.

And contaminates can come from in you're plastic baggie which is why sprinkle cinnamon but there's other benefits can't remember.

That simplicity almost always works and used to be my default but I've lost a couple of packs of seeds that were pretty expensive doing it without hydrogen peroxide. The seeds must have been old or super thick shells but they would want to grow mold around them LONG before ever popping. Paper towels were not overly wet either and good temp and swapped a couple times to fresh paper towels, just almost no vigor to them. Now I always soak for a day then put in paper towels with a little hydrogen peroxide and they almost always pop. If they dont in a few days though I just manually crack them open with tweezers and I get 100% germination. Never had any of the slow growing ones in paper towels get mold or rot while using the peroxide so I just do it by default now, I dont measure or anything just a little squirt from the bottle into the water.

Contanminates from brand new plastic baggies in a box? Are you talking about PBA's from plastics? I don't know.. I never thought of that when popping seeds I mean they just basically crack in the paper towel, dont think it would be a huge concern, i wear vinyl gloves when handling seeds though...I understand not curing bud in low quality plastics...when curing larger amounts I use food safe 5 gal buckets with gamma seals, they work great for curing larger amounts. Otherwise I use large glass jars. Got some apples & bananas in one right now.

I get my seeds blessed by a Peruvian shaman during their once-a-milenium seedbearers ritual festival, under the solstice moon as mercury is in retrogade, then I sand with fine grit Himalayan whetstone but only at a 32.3° angle and under 45.32% humidity at 24.5°c, but I have to travel to at least 65° latitude to do it. Then I soak the beans in freshly milked yak semen for three and a half days under far red spectrum ultrasonic heatwave. Then I get Snoop Dogg to kiss them and send them to a special seed bank lab in Siberia for their ultra top secret 4th stage germination program.
Super simple. Super effective. Works every time.
