THC Bomb Germinating problem...

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone else might have had a problem germinating some THC Bomb regulars?

I put 4 in a wet paper towel in a plastic bag on a constant heat source (not too hot, just warm). They initially all seemed to pop, but only 2 actually sprouted once they were put into soil (Light Warrior). Probably my fault for putting them in soil too soon... The two seedlings look ok, though a bit weak right now. I've got 2 freebie Grandaddy Purple Purple Dreams that popped around the same time and are growing rather well so far. It's been 12 days. I'm thinking I'll transplant them into bigger pots of FFOF in a few days, though they're barely a few inches tall yet, and barely have a second node started.

I also put two more THC Bombs to germ a few days ago, but they don't seem to be doing anything. Whereas one of my fresh bagseed popped after less than 24 hours.

I've got 4 more THC Bombs I'm holding on to for now. Any suggestions? They're all from Attitude (except the bagseed, of course) and came through the infamous Chicago sorting center (just as a matter of fact).

So you only have two fails? If your sure they popped then they should grow, no such thing as putting them in dirt too soon however the most likely reason they would fail after popped over a heat source is you didn't keep then wet enough...otherwise if you're not sure they popped 100 percent then is very possible it was just luck of the draw

I have THC Bomb growing now and had 9 out of 10 pop. I put the seeds directly into a germinating mixture though, as I think it is better for the plant not to be moved after sprouting.

I have had some issues with mine. got a 10 pack this summer am one for four, and the one went hermi one me... never had issues with any other seeds like this one. I was thinking since they were regs the stock might be old, the outer shells on mine were kinda peeling... weird.

Lol the outer shell wasn't peeling that was the hull...just means they weren't cleaned off as diligently before packaging

I just germed one THC bomb a couple of weeks ago but it was a femmed seed. It was over a year and a half old though and it seamed pretty vigorous. Much more vigorous than some fresh seeds I got called Em-dog. Those were a bitch and only got one plant out of 5 seeds. Ugh!

Sure enough, the transplant made a difference. They're all starting to grow again. So far, I'm 3 for 6 on the THC Bombs. Two didn't pop at all, one popped but shrivelled up and like a limp dick in a cold pool. Unfortunately, one of the three good ones is very much a runt, but it did sprout some new leaves, so maybe given time it'll catch up.

I may do fem seeds next time, just to eliminate the guess work... I've pollinated my females with the best looking male from my bagseed grows. Got some decent midgrade from the bagseed. This round I wanted to do a known strain. I'm crossing my fingers hoping to get at least 1 GDP Purple Dream and 1 THC Bomb female out of the 6 plants going on now. At this rate of growth, however, it may be a while before they're ready for flowering.

I put mine right in the dirt. 16 planted, 10 popped, and 7 are female. Leaves are long and thin so I hope it is something I did and can correct.
