[tigerdope]

1st you should've used purified bottled water with enhancement minerals then when they sunk that's progress you should've left them like that and then you should use the paper trowel method with the bowl on top

Hello, Im very very new at growing. I have alway's been interested in growing, but never really had the urge to try. I put 1 Pure Kush seed in a glass of water at Room Temp. 24 hours later the seed sank. I gave it one more FULL day in the glass and then i moved it to the wet paper towel method. It has been in the paper towel for about 4 days now and still no root or crack? I was just wondering if this means the seed is dead? or does it just need a little more time? Someone told me it takes around 2-3 days. TOTAL. And my seed has been germinating for about 6 days total. 2 in the water cup, 4 in the paper towel. Any thoughts?

Hey dude i skip putting seeds in water and just put them straight into moist paper towel inna tin ontop of my light or boiler. Usually around 30 degrees C. Seeds sprout over night to a week.

Hi there...it depends on the seed but usually about 3-4 days to have a nice tail ....I usually wait until the tail is about an inch and or the leaves are pushing the seed off. You may have to much water and the seeds may have rotted...only need a damp paper towel and cover it so it won't dry out...

Just drop them into the moist soil as said above... seeds can take 10 days or more to pop.

you can leave a seed in a glass of water until U see a tap root emerge, sum tmes 48 hrs sumtimes longer , but I just drop em into a bit of seed raising mix & let nature do its stuff

I use the peroxide trick. Just popped 2 tap roots in 3 days.

Capful of hydrogen peroxide in 20oz of water. Wet paper towel with solution, fold in half over seeds. Put that in a baggie and in 2 or 3 days a viable seed will produce a taproot.

I looked it up out of curiosity and the peroxide helps deteriorate the outside layer of the seed and help the root poke through.

Also make sure you let the baggie breathe. Seeds need oxygen.
