Yes, you want it to eventually sink (become saturated and loosen the outer shell). But until then they should float. Normally about 18-24h it takes.

Pollination question! Help please!
I have two tents side by side. Both have inline fans installed with filters. 6 female plants, 1 male, how likely is it for pollen to wind up in with my girls if I keep the male in a separate grow tent? I want to selectively pollinate branches so I still have good bud too.

Seeing as I see nothing to make me think male or female yet , apart from more leaves after leaves, should I presume this plant isn’t an auto flower as were at week 5? I know the bag the seed was found in was a good smoke lol , will the seed be a female or could it go either way?

Will males revert back to veg if daylight is increased by only minutes daily?
I'm flowering a male to create new genetics/seeds. I flower the males outside early spring (US - Michigan). Will more than 12hrs sunlight affect the males like it does females? Could I leave them outside without them reverting back to vegetative as the day hours increase?

2 different strains in my first grow?
Hey guys -- getting ready to start my first grow (3'x3' tent, LED, soil) and I'd like to shoot for 4 plants. I have seeds for two different strains. I'd like to go 2 of each, but I'm wondering if that's too much complexity for my first time. Any advice would be appreciated!

2 in 1 pot?
Thanks for the tip, I am trying just a pinch of cinnamon near the seed. My question is I have a late Girl Scout Cookies about 5 days to pop I think. Should I do them both in one pot and train them together or separate pots? I’m doing 15 liter pots. GSC Auto Zamnesia
