After researching all the various ways to germinate — sand paper? I decided to do something that’s had 100% success for me for all other vegetables etc I’ve grown — it’s a bit weird itself. Rapid rooted in an AeroGarden.
Tap root popped out about 12 hours after putting in AG. I still have the light off per most of what I read about germinating cannabis though I find it odd. Once the seeds pop above surface level of the rapid rooter I’ll flip the light on until the root pops out of the bottom of the rapid rooter then I’ll transplant (probably soon since these autos grow fast).
