Northern_Ent 2025 Season Durban Poison Seed ‘priming’ with ethylene gas in dark. https://scitechdaily.com/accidental-discovery-how-a-whiff-of-an-unusual-chemical-transforms-seedlings-into-super-plants/ I tried this last year with tomatoes, peppers and cannabis. 😎 This is almost as big a tip for cannabis growers as “get a pH meter”. Looking forward to another outdoor season. I’ve wanted to grow Durban Poison ever since I first heard about it decades ago. Tough decisions every year as to what to grow for my domestic four, but I’ve always wanted to try this one. Apologies to other breeders and I’ll keep doing four different breeders each year, so maybe next year. Good luck to everyone, and go have some fun growing dope.

Northern_Ent April 26 Day 1: the Durban is a bit slower than the others to sprout, and im not sure this one will actually work. Few more days to decide. using soil blocking tool to start seeds this year mostly to avoid use of plastic. Worked great for tomatoes and okay for peppers but the soil is wetter than normal and the cannabis doesn’t seem to likr it. If not, I’ll start another DP in a few days.

@Northern_Ent, how does the ethylene gas get through the water to the seeds? Mostly my seeds germinate in a ceramic pot and 20-25° in between 24 hours.

@birdmountain, thanks and you’re welcome. I’d suggest trying the seed priming trick. It seemed to work last year. Good luck.
