compared to my last germination which took over a week, the germination i just made took just over 48 hours.
my previous method was what I call noobish. heres how it went. I put the seed in the planter and left it outside for a week. finally it came up after about a week, maybe longer.
my most recent germination was with bag seed again, and was an experiment. In 4 pak planter 1, I put four seeds in miracle grow potting soil.
in 4 pak planter two i put three seeds, each one folded in a small 1/2 inch tear of paper towel. the crease was put on the bottom so the seedling could grow up. both planters were placed equidistantly from a 10w CFL. gave each seed a squirt of water to keep the medium moist.
in just over two days, the three of the seedlings in planter one have sprouted. Just about a half a day behind are the paper towel seedlings.
interesting to me... interesting to you?
the next part of the experiment is if the seeds in planter 2 will have problems rooting.
