Does CKS stand for crop king seeds???? If so you may wanna go to the seed and strainreview section and read any of the crop king threads.
About to leave for work, but I dropped my beans in a small glass of water. I'll check them when I get home from work. If they're cracked they're going straight into my jiffy pots. It's getting it to, and past the seedling stage that scares me, once that's done, I've got the rest under control.
Thanks! I'm gonna spend some time reading up after work tonight.
Leave them in the shot glass for 3 days? That seems like a long time to drown my seeds. I paid more than I really wanted to, so I would like to at least get a few sprouts.
Wow! Looks like you've definitely got some practice with this lol.
Plant the seeds in soil. Let nature work FOR you. Ive nevr used the jiffy products but plenty of peeps seem to lke them.
That's true. But isn't the purpose of all those things designed to create an atmosphere that is as close to nature as possible? Paper towels are hardly a replacement for good soil.
Isn't that what you're doing by putting them in a glass filled with water? Germinating in a puddle?
I've already stated my dislike for using paper towels as there's always a risk of damaging the root if it sticks to the towel. But I always soak for 24 hours just to soften the shell, I've found they usually pop there heads out the soil a few days earlier than if they hadn't been.
It makes perfect sense. I wasn't busting your chops brother - I understand different methods work for different people. I was just making a point. Personally I use rapid rooters.
