Red_eyed_optimist So my germination process starts off with a mix of DISTILLED WATER(250ml) and Rhizotonic xp(1ml) split into 2 cups with a seed placed in each and put somewhere dark. I keep them in the water for about 10-12hrs and make sure they sink...the Rhizotonic xp is used to soften the shell. Next they're placed in folded paper towels soaked down with the same water/Rhizo mix and put in zip lock bags and placed in a warm dark place(my new 2x2x3 tent). 36hrs later...they were ready to be planted. 24hrs after putting them in soil and watered with a little RECHARGE they popped out and are on there way.
