Right?! It's like wheres the reach around for this bent over action, cause thats gettin fucked in the ass lol. I mean I'll pay for a good cut. As long as I know its a good cut. But 1g for 1 cut is being alittle overprotective if you will.

Lol, I understand where he's coming from trying to jack up the price so no one will want to buy it. I think another reason why he wont let me get my hands on the clone is because he knows I'm like a cloning guru lol. I can get a gdp strain from him for a hell of alot cheaper, but I want a real OG cutting.

I'm a little curious how long do you wait until you reuse your hydroton. Since I just finished cropping the church I've noticed that the majority of the roots still contain some moisture and aren't being broken up very easily. I used to just let them sit for like a month before I cleaned it up lol.

I need to start doing that, I've noticed using rockwool or the rapid rooter cubes don't do it justice and it gets super stretched like a window plant. Or maybe I'm just not doing something right.

I always start in Rockwool or rapid rooters the stretch is because ur lights are too far. Every seed I pop in Rockwool cracks and goes hard. You just have to keep lights movin up and down alot

Paper towels = raped my seeds. It's why I went to Rockwool too many problems with poppin out after movin em from paper towel. So I crack em in a shot glass. When they sink you know they are takin on water If you see tap root transplant also u can do it sooner but it's nice knowing u got a viable one. This way I never handle the seed unless it has a hard husk and needs scuffing. Lol way to careful I know but bad things happened to me for a while and so I switched methods and this ones never failed once

I actually normally start them in a shot glass also. Then plant it in whatever medium I'm using. I prefer to use the shotglasses because you know if and when they pop open so you can transplant it. Rather then waiting 2 weeks to find out the seed wont sprout lol.

mt routine's like this:

shake the seeds in a match box with a little grip tape on the inside to ough up the shell (5-10 min)
soak in a shot glass untill they sink (24hr)
drop under the paper towel, tails full pop (24hr)
pull husk off top's if still on
move to grow medium, (usually soil) and plant 2.5 as deep as the seed is long w/ tail pointing down.

bit much but works great imo.

Lol stop handling em so much and u will get better germ rates. The first half of what u do is identical to me. I choose Rockwool because intend to overwater while young in soil. Any medium works if u shot glass em. 100% on my last ten beans all different strains.
