any number of reasons why germination doesnt work. Germination needs darkness, so any light will disrupt it. it needs humidity, fluctuations can sometimes disrupt that. it needs a stable temperature, so when day turns to night and back again all those criteria fluctuate that's why it's often easier to control everything in your kitchen then bring them outside once you are sure it's germinated. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Too bad bro :-(. I put the seeds to germinate for about 10 hours in a glass of water in the dark. Then between two damp cloths, and in an airtight box. As soon as you put them in, a cap directly above them that the humidity is nice stays high 👍. But it can also be genetic dependent. Let it grow, you will do it perfectly 👌👍🌱💪🏻

hmm I've always had great results with seedsman and fast buds. never had one of their seeds fail to germ. I never plant directly in the pots or any starter plugs to germ. I always put some slightly warm water in a shot glass and soak them for 24 hours or until they sink. by the end of soaking they usually either have small roots popping out or are at least cracked open. from the soaking, they go into a damp paper towel that I put in an unsealed ziplock bag and then I place that bag on my cable box because it stays slightly warm which helps the seeds germinate faster. once the have a tail around 1cm long I plant them in their pots and they usually pop through in another 2-3 days. I've had a 100% success rate with this process with about 30 seeds from several different breeders now. good luck with germinating in the future! of you have any other questions or wanna chat, feel free to dm me.
