Ok, so i came home blacked out drunk 2 weeks ago with some friends and thought it would be a great idea to put ALL of my seeds in a cup of water. (I remember thinking...FUCK it they're just bag seed. I'm planning on ordering better seeds anyway)

I had a crazy work and school schedule that week so i didn't find the seeds till about 5 days later. 3 had sprouted i planted them and they are fine. but i took the rest out of the water and dried them off.

About 3 days ago i decided to see if i should throw them away or not. Tried to germ 4 of them and one sprouted a tail but it was a little brown. The others haven't done anything yet.

I don't know if it was from the soaking or not but the one that sprouted pushed itself out of the ground and had a brown spot on its tail. I carefully peeled the shell back and exposed the leaves. after a day i found it out of the ground again. this time i dipped it in some rooting hormone and put in in the ground again. (crossing my fingers)

Anybody think any of the seeds are still viable?? They were just bagseed but they were from a MM club in San Diego. ( I'm pretty sure they are a 50/50 Indica/Sativa) so i don't want to waste them if i don't have to (i have about 20 left)

Waste not...

Why spend money on something I already have. I'm going to try them out regardless.

I'm just asking what people think the chances of them still being viable are.

Throwing something away b/c it might be ruined is just plain wasteful; 'specially when its as easy as wetting a paper towel in order to find out.
