Holy crap! the she cow, poured a ton of milk in that coffee WTF.more I know the dumber I feel
Its only the 15th. Don't lose hope. They may need to soak a while.So, some bad news. Seeds aren’t popping. None of them.
They are currently between two damp/little more then damp folded paper towels in a container I’ve used for poppin seeds for years now. It’s not air tight but light proof. So they have been sitting there since the 11th in a climate of 76-79. And nothing. Usually I’d see a little crack by now.
Any advice from here on forward? Any tricks or tips? I know not all were going to pop but none?
(I’m sure some of you will get a kick out of this)

I didn’t try scruffiness them. I pre soaked them for 12 hours and then right into paper towels. Not sure if I should do any scuffing when they are somewhat saturated.Have you tried scuffing the seed ?
Fulvic acid ?
Or carbonated water ?
That’s the filvic acid do? And how is it used?Have you tried scuffing the seed ?
Fulvic acid ?
Or carbonated water ?
Same question I asked naivecon, what’s the acid do and how do you go about using it?Gibberellic Acid
Try one teaspoon per liter of water.That’s the filvic acid do? And how is it used?
Thanks
I did a hydrogen peroxide/water soak before hand but I’m assuming for not long enough. Should I pull them back out and do another soak?Try one teaspoon per liter of water.
Gibberellic will work as well I think it's a little bit stronger then fulvic.
You could also try carbonated water with a little more oxygen. But I think you just got to let the seeds soak in a container first for a good day or two before you try paper towel.
You have to get that shell to soften up
I don't think that really matters, does it ?Do they stink?
I’m wondering if I should resort to that method or just try soaking them over night. I’m guessing you can’t soak for days on end or you will suffocate the seed. I don’t have any fulvic acid on hand at the moment. HmmmmI don't think that really matters, does it ?
I soak seeds in pH,d water with a tad bit of peroxide until tails pop,
I also have some seeds from the mid-70s, the peroxide trick did not work so I'm going to up my game with a type of acid.
You may not have soaked your seeds long enough @BeeRaasta but you may have to move up to the next step as well.
lol....stink or sinkDo they stink?
