Just got some new seeds from a close friend, Super Silver Haze and Bubba Kush. Planted them today...4 SSH and 2 BK, right in the soil like I have been doing with all my seeds. A seed does the same thing in the soil as in the paper towel.I actually think it's safer to plant right in soil skipping the whole paper towel germination method. Just make sure not to pack the soil down over seed. Place it rather than pack it. Excited about these strains and all i really need is one female to make a mother. So if all goes well with these seed thats makes us up to 7 strains, BGS1, BGS2, Bubba Kush, Hollands Hope, Strawberry Cough x Northern Lights, Super Silver Haze, and Northern Lights.
