Depends on whether you have a fully matured seed...
When I make new seeds, I will take one and germ right away to test them for viability...
I usually wait until I see defined tiger striping on the seeds.... or a dark consistent color

fuck man! i just culled a moster male blue diesel plant (sannies) i would have given it to you if i knew your breeding seeds, you could have grown the male out to see if it was worthy of breeding, I'm only saying this because i hate killing male plants, i'd do it myself but i'm not set up for breeding. 9 out of 10 seeds turned out female...so far i'm lov'n the sannies gear.

If anyone is interested in male plants PM me and i'll let you know the next time a have some to give away...for free! no strings attached! no BS! i want nothing in return! this is my way of giving back i know somewhere down stream someone in medical need will beneifit form a seed stock produced in Hawaii

Well, I have the seeds soaking already. I guess I'll have to do a side by side comparison. I'll pop some more when the time is right. This should be fun

Guy's just went passed the airport again! They're still here! I saw the yellow shit stain followed my a red shit stain, both in tandem and were pulling into land....so let’s hope they're out of gas!

Anyone know how to get rid of termites? One of my girls uprooted itself and toppled over, but when I looked closer. It actually broke at the base of the plant because termites were eating the crap out of her. I hope its only one plant and they didnt spread to my others.

I hope that bigoted people don't try to punish the disabled people who use Medical Cannabis to medicate their illness's. They need to make it legal and regulated so it doesn't get sold to kids unlike the system they are trying to hold onto now.

Weird- never hear that problem before- haha... There is some local kine spray at ace I forget the name- but it has a bright green label and pink writing, (I think) it's an all natural formulation with mint oil and stuff... I've heard orange oils work too, perhaps just squeezing some rind around the area could work? I dunno I've never heard of termites being a problem, are you 100% sure? Maybe nematodes sound more likely, but have you actually seen the termites with your own eyes, or just the damage and suspected termites? Oh and sorry for your loss, no matter what the cause, you have my condolences... :(

Edit: I guess it's possible: http://www.thegardencentral.com/gardening-care/dealing-with-the-dreaded-termite-in-your-garden/ I really don't know anything about it, so perhaps someone else can be more helpful...

Bummer man... I just read somewhere you can use neem as a soil soak for termites, but it was just a random comment, and not some article or whatever. I guess as a last resort you could try it. Although I'd have to wonder if the oil would coat the roots and inhibit them from working. I'm trying to google and find some answers, but there isn't much info out there... Hopefully someone else here knows what to do...

termite damage is very possible.. killed me and kkday a few grow seasons ago. big time. major losses. we had to make sure they were all in pots and have plastic saucers under them so they wouldn't get into the soil. they were eating right through the grow bags. we put termite dust all over the ground, put plastic over that, and then did the pots/growbags on the plastic saucers deal. only way we could stop the problem.

What island is the worst island? I live on the Big Island and have 3 license to grow but currently have 23 plants out so if it was on Hawaii then I must cut 2 plants down. The 2 plants started to stretch last month and now are almost ready but if they are doing checks then both plants will be harvested.

Agreed, like any big city, the bigger it is, the more laws and regulations. I remember a long time ago I was munching some Jack n the box and drinking a single Steinlager (neither of which I'd ever touch again btw) on the bench by the statue of the Duke. Cops on bikes rolled up on me and took me in the station for drinking in public. When I explained it was perfectly legal on my island and didn't know I was breaking the law he laughed at me and said there's no way it was legal on any of the islands. Apparently he checked it out and found out I was speaking the truth and let me go with an apology and warning. It sucks how more people facilitate the need for more rules and regs, so I prefer to live on an island that's a little more laxed. Although I know it's only a matter of time, and we'll be soon catching up- but it's good while it lasts.

Has anyone experience the Tobacco Mosaic Virus in there plants? Did the plant survive? If it did survive how much did it affect yield? I know that at least one of my plants if not all have the virus, and was curious because the virus is not suppose to be as active in temperatures above 21C or 69.6F. Does anyone know of an effective way that we can suppress the symptoms of virus from affecting the plants? I was aware of the damages that TMV can cause to tomato's but I didnt realize that it could affect the cannabis plants in such a severe way.
