Just wanted to share my experience with recent germination. First time I just put them in substrate. I was a nervous wreck for some reason even though I always felt bad handling a wet seed exposing the tap root to light and possible contamination. Any how, here's 9/9 seeds planted 20 days ago. All popped up:)20140805_064924.jpg20140805_064158.jpg 20140805_063923.jpg

Nice :) I'm actually exactly 9 out of 9 germed too with planting directly into medium. Had to kill 2 herms but their replacements just popped up this morning.

WTG! :clap: I never soak seeds. I just wet them and plant them. And get damn near 100% germ rate :weed: Last year was 20/20 :bigjoint:

They look very healthy :leaf:

Good Luck :peace:
Well that's 38/38 directly in medium. Starting to see a trend...

That's great man. Nothing like replacing an addiction like alcoholism with something productive ;) Congratulations and keep it up!

Thanks everybody for your positivity. I've never kept a journal considering all my last grows we're in Chicago, Illinois....started my first grow about ten years ago. I grew Paradise seeds: Magic Bud, it was the cheapest 5 pack of any feminine seed at the time through Dr. Chronic. Turned out to be a Great strain, I had a lot if fun with that STEALTH operation:) I'm looking forward to using regular seeds this time and having a space to start playing with breeding.

If that photo of the seeds is visible, those are all fem's I had ordered when I was living in a shoebox with no space for popping regular seeds. Now my place is about two shoebox':) any input on which strains (from photo)to pop next I would appreciate. Thanks again for your support and friendliness....I'm gonna need it soon enough like Cassinf-O mentioned:) Talk about Troubleshooting!
