Hi hope this goes well, I always put my seeds in a shot glass with distilled water cover the shot glass for 24 hours, then I proceed to set the seeds on a damp papertowel into a ziplock bag in between a square plate and square bowl in a warm dark place and usually the next day they are ready to start their life in a 6" pot with added promix hp. I make a small indentation in the top of the soil put taproot down as best as I can then slightly cover it like a dusting of the soil and then give them a little drink. The next day I saw and she had poked her little head. So first week was succesful. Now she can start on her journey to superdank rewards
