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.

Hello. I asked a question about twins a day ago. Gently dug down to find a root for each stem. Separation successful. My question now is - are they identical or not? I my mind they are, What do you think. Chuck.

33% germination rate...Breeder issue?
I got my seeds from the Seedsman and only 3 out of 9 survived. 1. Paper towel method til root appears about a half-inch. 2. Put in pre-soaked RootRiot plug, 3 out of 6 died. PH and watering are fine. 3. Then I tried Rockwool again, 3 died. Do you think this is normal?

Are S1 fem seeds better/worse than regular fem seeds?
I received a pack of freebie Violator Kush S1 seeds. I’ve been trying to do my research on my own but I’m stumped, are S1 seeds worth growing to smoke? Do they have lower thc content? There’s something about females growing pollen sacs to breed themselves? Very confused

Does anyone know if there are any places to trade seeds, or resources to find local growers who might want to trade? I ended up successfully albeit unintentionally harvesting 4 different plants full of feminized seeds that I'd like to trade for some different strains. Thanks!

Why has my harvest got seeds
OK so looking at my new harvest auto, all is well... However, I have found 1 seed in the whole harvest How could this be possible from 1 plant on its own? No males were present 100% the only plant that was near was my olive tree and that has fruited, surely it can't be olive?

Cold Temps, Seed-to-Soil
This seed has cracked out of the shell and been thrown in and out of soil. It has been experiencing 65 degree days and a 55 degree night. Will this hinder the seed from emerging or is it pretty tough to kill a seed? It's a Mephisto seed I tried to get the best genetics I could.
