Germination kit? are they worth the money?

I am starting a grow soon and i was thinking about trying the germination kit off nirvana. I was wondering if anybody has used it before and does it work good? i want to make sure all my seeds get germinated because they are expensive.... here is the link to the kit...

Ive used it on 3 seeds, and all 3 were perfect sprouts. Im a newbie, so I am going to continue to use these as they obviously work. This way I dont screw anything up.

Main website for the product is germinationkit.com

Get two paper towels, and some water. Much cheaper. Or just throw 'em into the dirt and keep the dirt moist. I think we all forget sometimes that they are just seeds, and will germinate just like any other seed, unless you are using old or pre-mature seeds.

yes i am fermilliar with the paper towel method thats what i have done in the past to germinate my seeds but i am looking for a more reliable way to germinate with a 100% germination rate

Yea, papertowel way works great, always has for me, but have had a few that just didnt germinate. If youve got the $10 to spend, its worth it.

Yeah as said, if you have the extra money and it makes you feel better why not. But don't do it because you think you have to or else your seeds just wont germinate.

The money spent on that germination kit would be better spent going towards ventilation, or high quality nutrients. The paper towel method is as good as any. Unfortunately there is no such a thing as a 100% germination rate, blame natural selection on that one.

does this kit help it grow at all because i know it may helpr oots

just put them in 2 paper towels on a small plate wrap them in plastic wrap and throw them on the t.v.
always works

No clue. I like them tho. Only takes about 48 hours and you have a 1inch seedling ready to pot.

did u just push it down as far as u can with finger till u can still kinda see the seed?

yea y spend money when you could do it for free when ever you want at home?

Just got to any hardware store and buy the peat moss nurserys i just germed 24 and got 19 or them sprouted in 2 days

well when u pay 35 USD for 5 seeds u want 100%

any1 know how far u shud stick down?

Not far at all. Definitely not as deep as a finger. Your looking at 3millimetres deep. I used a tooth pick and made a very tiny hole. About twice as deep as the seed is thick (around 3mm). Dropped the seed in, used toothpick to push a little of the soil over it, covered the bowl I had them in, and put in a drawer.

u think a sealed jar is fine in my drawer


so i shud defintely push the seed down with like equal dirt over as side of seed?

those are a waiste. seeds will always germ. my seed took a week. i thought it might not work but it did. itsnot the way you germ. its weather or not the seed is even good! save your money and adress! order as little as possible to prevent weird activity with the post office.

i bought from local store for 9 dolars, better than 1 seed not working witch costs 7 dollars.... also i wanna see how it affects growth

there you go that works. lol same number of posts

if you scared of harming your seeds
germ them 1 at a time
but give them atlest 2 weeks to germ before haveing a hart attact. trust me it want take that long, but i have had it happen.

i put soil in a cup, then i put my seeds in, pushing them in with a pin so that they want flot when i water but if they do wait fore the water to settle then pussh them back under the skin of the soil, then i water and place in a window or on top of a tv of counter this works great.give it 5 days or untill your shure the soil is dry before you rewater. like i said try one at a time works 100% of the time its how mommynature does it
