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.

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.

Germination Failure?
How long to give dormant seeds before deciding germination failure? Recently aquired seeds , two were soaked , paper toweled , only one germinated to date. They are older seeds. The ungerminated one has turned dark brown ? How long do I wait before deciding its an unviable seed?

How many seeds floated?
I'm curious as to what people's experiences have been when placing their seeds in a cup of spring water as per Crop King Seeds germination policy. How many sunk and how many floated when you first put them in?

Gefärbte Stellen an den Pads. Schlimm oder Harmlos?
Hallo, ich benutze Pads mit einem Seedbooster. Mir fällt auf das sie weiße bis grüne Stellen aufweisen. Kann mir jemand sagen ob es den Samen schadet oder sogar Schimmel sein könnte?

Cómo veo que mi planta entre en la flora?
Siempre conté las semanas de floración, aparte de cuando aparecen las plagas, creo que es por eso que nunca obtengo brotes muy densos, porque cosecho antes del momento adecuado. No hago la cosecha aparte de observar la coloración de los morteros. Semillas Regulares Googletraducto

Any suggestion for fast flowering strains yet THC powerful and not sleepy
For my next session, I will have little time available. With 15 days of vegetation and around 50 days for flowering : SOG and maybe with lst + fim + scrog. What powerful strains would you advise ? Do I have to go autoflowering ?

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?

Unknown Intruder alert(?)
I have 5 Green Crack Autos. A random plant popped up in one of my houseplants, no clue as to what sort of seed it is. Will it cause a problem being in the same tent as the autos? Can the random one alter the autos depending on its sex? Or Can the autos affect the random?

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?

Germ to soil Seed grabbing tool
Hey guys, so I really fucked up last time and dropped the seed down the drain. Thankfully it was a free seed but still. If there any super fragile tool you guys use to grab the seed? Sounds like a dumb question but I don’t wanna damage the seed. Thanks guys!

Why Won't The Seed Bank Talk to Me?
So I've reached-out to a Seed-Bank, out west, (BC?) a few times now, their page reads; "Send Us an E-Mail", so we have ... Nothing! We want seeds, strains & I don't get it, are they weirded out? Is it a legality thing? Not sure what the deal is, Canada's Legal Right!?

Triplets in autoflower seed ?
Hey guys, I've germinated one Lemon AK Auto seed from Fast Buds and I've noticed two root taps coming out. Next day one fell off, but I planted it anyways and now I have one extra small plant. Today I've noticed that THIRD plant is emerging from the same seed. What would you do ?
