So out of 7 stardawg IX, 6 popped, and 2 have died in the seedling stage....never had seedlings die before. Anyone want to take a guess as the cause? they were good one day, on their way out the next. Just rolled over and died.P1000084.JPG

on this example, the one to the right just folded over and died, the one to the left lived, but is on life support right now. I re-buried the one to the left since the stalk tapers down to almost nothing....still alive but very slow going right now. Only 2 strong seedlings right now out of 6.....probably my fault, but would like to know others thoughts. I have had seeds pop, and not push up out of the rooter, but never had them sprout up, look good, and suddenly die.

I'm not sure if I'm off base with this but wonder if it has to do with th age of seed and the storage conditions it was in before the customer gets it. I've bought packs from banks oversees that had shitty germ rates, then replaced though said packs at Denver cup straight from the breeders hands to get home and have everything pop every time. I'm going to start scuffing on my seeds just so maybe I can avoid the few die offs I have once in while. Especially when you're paying that kind of money for beans you expect everyone of them to be heads up and a fine specimen whether male or female.

as people mention before me... it does look like damp off...
are those seedlings under a clear dome? if so, that might be why...
 
The pic shown was under a dome when it happened. the other two that didn't make it were out of the dome and in the medium(coco). Packs were dated somewhere around 3/16, so they weren't very old. Always heard of damping off,but never experienced it like this, although my room is not nearly as dry as it is in winter. Humidity is definitely up, but i thought that was good for veg. Thanks for the replies, i'm chalking it up to shit happens. Have four more seeds to pop, only need to find one......
 
So I just pulled the trigger on a pack of Star OG (tahoe og x stardawg)

Got em for $125, it's the most I've ever spent on a pack but keep seeing people hype them up so figured I'd try.... Could have almost gotten 2 bodhi packs + freebies and testers for that price.

What's everyone think? I had the option for star cookies (girl scout cookies x stardawg) for that price but was told the star og should be a better yielder?

Hope I get some fire but I'm skeptical for what these packs go for, what does everyone think?

The cross sounds interesting, so we shall see what she brings.
