100% germination today with the towel and new seeds from nirvana. Shit im so happy but wish i pulled the trigger with online ones before. Any one know where to get the killer old strains from. I love the L-3 and cloud 9 i grew years ago or some killer hash plant.

First let me say Aloha To all of you this is my first post. Ok so I have been on the water for the last few years so i had no where to grow. Now that Im back in the Islands and 100% legal again I wanted to grow. the thing is i have some old seeds from when i grew back in the mainland and some from friends here but they are a few years old. I have tried all the normal way to make them pop but they didn't. got any advice on what to do. oh And i ordered some new ones from the seed shop on here so I let you know if i get them i have got like four emails and im on step seven of there shipping thing so we will see.

How old are the seeds exactly? If they are kept in a cool, dark place I heard seeds can last for at least 2 years. They may take a while longer to pop or they may be duds. Good call on ordering a new batch.

hi, new the forum and impressed by the wealth of info! question--why do you use sandpaper in the bottle (germinating)? i'm assuming you're wanting to rub off the outer portion of the seed (shell)? i have germinated before with a few wet papertowels, but got 9 out of 15 to sprout. i'm a novice at best and have a ton to learn obviously. thx-
