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.

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

Hi folks! I have a question about the Sensi Star strain from Paradise Seeds.
Paradise Seeds Sensi Star is out of stock on the official site and big shops, but I found it in the local shop. Is it discontinued or just OOS? Any recent grow reports? Worried about old stock, fakes/repacked seeds, poor germination, or weaker modern batches.
