This grow is from 2 year old seeds i got from good weed i bought (great price) when i was low on spending money, sealed all seeds in air tight container as soon as i found them. Soaked 8 seeds overnight in filtered water on 10-3. 10-4 put seeds on a small plate between a folded paper towel moistened with filtered water. 7 Seeds had good root growth by 10-6. I used 3 parts Miracle Grow Spagnum peat moss, 2 parts M.G. perlite, 1 part Sta-Green (Lowe's) vermiculite as a rooting medium. I have used this many times and it promotes rapid growth. On 10-6 I planted 7 sprouts in 12oz. foam cups with holes poked in bottom. All broke the surface by 10-9 and took off. 6 23watt cfls, as light for seedlings, for the first ten days.
