i remember that shit tore up your plants!No silica burn this time, I threw that shit out. Botanicare already includes silica in some of their products, so I didn't need it anyway- adding more probably contributed to the overdose last time.
Yeah I am into fem as well, but upon getting low you can make more beans if you have a male.Hey Bassman.......nice to see you pop in. I researched Peak Seeds before, mainly because they have a large presence over at ICMag and people love their stuff. But I'm mainly a feminized seed guy so I passed. But some day maybe.......
I still use the paper towel method, warm water, in towels and then into a baggie kept on top of the fridge. If your are gentle with them, they always seem to pop in 2-3 days, no problems. As soon as they are about 1/2 inch long, I put them into their pro-mix pots and water heavily again.
I got these ones all as freebies honestly, but not from seed-banks.Not necessarily........not sure if they are freebies, but I've found a lot of freebies are "older" seeds and often don't sprout. My rate on freebies sprouting is only about 70% or so.
Also, when you make your own seeds, they are F2's, not F1's which will lead to more variety in pheno's and often lesser quality. That's why if I was to do my own thing, I'd use mother plants (clones) to insure the quality remains.
