My Dinafem Critical+ germed but hasn't sprouted. It's been a full week (the 27th) since we started germing so I'm not holding my breath anymore.
Unless something happens I think I'm already down to the Super Haze and 4 bagseeds.
 
Still waiting on a couple of mine to pop, the Pink OG has made its way up but the big band and versace kush aren't showing any signs of life, which blows because the pink og is not guaranteed to be feminine...if nothing else pops up and the pinky turns out male...i may have to sadly drop out of the competition.
 
Damn that's life and death for ya, we never really kno if any seed will give life.
My Tahoe hasn't pop out:/ but my 3 king head band has, as for the bag seeds I aborted them.
So at the moment it looks like I will only be entering my 3khb
Sadly if she's isn't a she, I too will be dropping out
 
Had to order 300 additional watts of LED so that I don't get dwarfed in this competition ;) Chocolope is now also above the surface.

All three of my doctors are up and raring to go! Had to take of the seed hull from two of them but they are open and good to go. Will take a pic once I'm back at my house and the lights are on.
 
I've got 4 little mounds which are going to be a Pineapple Chunk and a Myster seed then 2 more bag seeds, these have got to be the slowest bunch of seeds to germ I've done. But then again I've gone out of my norm with planting straight in compost, I usually soak rockwool cubes in 6 pH water. So I'll have 6 total unless the others pop, really counting on the bag seed. I must be growing with the smallest LED at only 135 watts.

Happy Growing!!

Hope everyone is having a Wonderful 4th of July!!
 
I often have a seed or two that are taking forever to germ, ... usually I forget about them after 4-5 days because I have already planted the rest. They say they can take up to 14 days to germ. Once they germ though, unless I am away from home (like right now) they will sprout almost 100% of the time. I sure hope you guys get female! I got the one female for sure now hoping that the second feminized seed will germ as well!! I have been getting 50% ratio with Kenny's Mix regular seeds so far so I like to think I will get one female out of the 2!!!
 
Cup Update: Stupid Critical+ is a no show for yet another day. Other five are going strong. Thinking about moving my panel down. :idea:

might be a dud seed possibly.. but dont give up on her yet bro, ..

my violator kush and bagseed have all sprouted, one bagseed stretched out and whithered off, but the others are going well

one violator kush was also soaked in a gibberlic acid solution during germination, pretty keen to see the outcome of this gurl.. if it herms out ill use it to make some feminised seeds with the other kush plants.. if it stretched too much its getting pulled.. if it buds out of control, then mad..

the dude who sold me my light has agreed to send me new replacment components to repair the lights power supply too

Still a no go on the Critical+. I'll leave it in the cup but I think it is a goner. This would be the first time a seed has germed for me and hasn't sprouted.
I'm giving her until Sunday and then I'm calling it if I don't see anything. Hopefully the bagseeds won't fail and they'll be girls!

Super Haze & 4 bagseeds are rocking though.
 
The train wreck has germed! One has sprouted so far. I am home now so I can give them proper TLC.
 
So this being my first 12/12 from seed what can I expect to see happening? Will this be roughly the same as one of my nomal grows time wise, say roughly 90 to 110 days? I told you all I was a newbie...lol.
 
well I don't know about the party cup, but just as a way of growing, it's great, to me the growth seems a lot faster, except for the first couple weeks
 
Well I took notes from some comments already in this thread and I must say it helped. I never thought of using baggies as humidity domes, but I guess the last 4 of 6 have broken the surface after 2 days, I'll get pictures tomorrow when light is on.
 
Ok, So I couldn't wait until Sunday. I decided to gently dig up the Critical+ today to see what was going on.

Found the seed, The same way I left it, no change. The taproot was brown/black. While I was looking at it a tiny, thin, white, for lack of a better word, "worm" started moving on the taproot. It was TINY. White with a black head. Not a maggot from what I can tell. Anyway it looked like it was feeding on the taproot or something.

I tossed the entire cup. So it's official, The Critical+ is out before it started.

^^^ In Order: Group Shot, Bagseed #1, #2, #3, #4 & Super Haze.

#1 was still wearing her helmet so I took it off myself. The rest are all stretching like bandits. I lowered my panel closer to them.
(I was just gonna say I was gonna plant those stretchy stems lower, But I forgot we aren't replanting.)
