I'm doing both Paper Towel and Glass of Water methods of germination.
Paper Towel = 3x Grapefruit Auto
Glass of Water = 2x LSD-25 Auto
After 24 hours I will take the LSD-25's out of the water and put them in soil.
After I see a tail on the grapefruits then I will put them in soil.
I will update after they germinate
UPDATE:
15th December: After 24hrs all seeds using both methods had germinated with little tails protruding out so I planted them in soil and put them in a seed starter germination dome with a heat mat set to 76f degrees. The soil I'm using in the starter pots is a 50/50 mix of Fox Farm Ocean Forest and Hydrofarm Lightwarrior soilless seed starter mix. I put them about 1 cm deep with a little bottled water I had prewarmed on the heat map.
17th December: They have now sprung out of the soil and they all look pretty healthy to me. I am going to keep them in this humidity dome for a few days to make sure they are good and healthy for the first stage of life before I transplant them to the 5 gal fabric bags full of Ocean Forest I have waiting for them.
18th December: They were getting a little stretchy so I decided to use my 200 LED at %50 to give the seedlings ~16k LUX and I removed the little florescent that came with the germination dome. Just for reference, the florescent provided about 10k LUX from my test. So this should stop the seedlings from stretching and having the more powerful LED at only %50 will help warm up the tent without the need for exhaust.
19th December: Just took a couple of pictures.
21st December: Day 4 - Added a pic and removed the dome to prepare seedlings for transplant. I have to transplant early since they are autos. (3x Grapefruits left and 2x LSD-25s right)
