Ok, so I had about 150 seeds that were givin to me from a friends recent harvest. I tried germinating about 130 of them and none sprouted. I do however have one that just sprouted yesterday from my girlfriend's sister's boyfriend's plants and I threw it into soil the tip of the leaf is turning a bit purple(very slightly) but I'm concerned. What light cycle should I be using and how moist should the soil be kept? Anything useful would help. Thx

130 seeds didnt sprout? :confused:

you're doing something wrong that is for sure, what temps are you trying to germinate them at?

How could 130 seeds not germinate? Crazy.
i tried germinating 25 outside (Cold around this time, 30-50 when the sun is out) left them for a week and nothing...

Moved a few in my grow box (Temps being 70-85) and they popped up in 2 days.

So make sure it is not too cold (Said something about purple, which is also a sign of it being too cold.)

That is why, lol. You need to place them on a moist paper towel on a plate, cover with another moist paper towel and then cover that with a plate of the same size. Keep em moist (not too wet) and in a dark place (a cupboard works well). In 2 to 5 days you will see the seeds pop and a root come out. Then you can put it in soil or other mediums. :peace:

if it was flourecent i would say 24 but i dont know that so i would say 14 . oh by the way those 130 seeds some strains do take as long as 2 weeks .if you going to get rid of them i'll take them off your hands . hydro better than dirt.

okay....i'm new here but to germinate seeds get a paper towell like bounty and soak it then wring it out until u can't get any water out and open the paper towel and put ur seeds in the middle and start folding it hotdog then hamburger style and put it in a DARK place , if you put it in light u probably won't get any seedlings sprout.....and in about a day you'll have a crack in about 2 days you'll have a root come out and in 3 you should be able to plant.

My grow room is under my stairs and the temp is always 85 degrees so its not a heat problem and I did germinate the proper way none sprouted though and now my seedling is dead. Soooo fucking depressing its ok though I was givin more seeds by a friend last night so I'm gonna try them out and see what happens. Maybe the paper towel was too wet I'll wring it out a little more this time. Like I mean I can grown everything else and its mother lol, I guess my skill just isnt thee right now =(
. I'll keep you all posted on my results. Peace and love

make sure the seeds are dark in color and dont crack or break when u apply some pressure to them with your fingers.
