I just fill a small planter with nutrimix hp put seed down 1/4 inch with pointy seed up, put under 18/6 light, a cmh 315 watt 3 ft above them and 3 to 4 days usually I am welcoming babies into the world, without ever having to handle them. Results are super fast growing babies. Cheers

Hello So I used to only do the soak and then paper towel method too...sometimes i had seeds that didn't seem to want to break shell until i started to put the heating pad under them. After increasing the temperature consistently, the difficult ones always would break through eventually. So possibly consider the temp of the container the paper towels are in . Most recently I tried sprouting directly in peat pods(jiffy pellets, cubes) and it worked so great, i didn't have to disturb roots when transferring them into the soil after they broke shell. Now I'm pretty sure that's going to be my main method for germination. If you choose jiffy pellets they keep a neutral ph, they're able to maintain a better internal temp, they stay moist for several days, and they have everything a seedling needs nutrition wise in the pellets for the first week+ of life. The seeds i put straight in broke the top in about 36 hours.. so a little longer but well worth it. 👍So I'd try that method for your last babies.

Прорастают семечки у меня все до одной! Даже семя, которым по 5-7 лет и они содержались в сухом темном месте, прорастают быстро! Третий день у меня - день посадки растения! 👌

I don't use the paper towel method I find it has easier chance to mess things up. I soak my seeds in a cap full of water for 12- 24 hrs in a warm place. Should see them cracking. Lower the water level to only covers half the seed and tap will start to push out. Then plant in medium. Recently I've just been adding a drop of hydrogen peroxide in the water and has done same as dropping the water level. Only done it 2x but successful both times.

Привет, бро! 👋 Проращивание. Без всяких замочек-заморочек и прочих хитростей. Беру семку, беру не прозрачный пакет зип-лок, беру два чистых ватных диска, смачиваю диски чистой минеральной водой, отжимаю чтоб они стали слегка влажными и с них не текла вода, кладу семечку между дисками, всё это дело помещаю в конверт зип-лок и дышу в него своим «углекислым» газом, после чего конверт закрываю и отправляю в сухое темное место с комнатной температурой воздуха 23-24С (в шкаф или в ящик тумбы, к примеру). Через 24 часа открываю пакет, достаю диски, смотрю не вылупилась ли она. Проверяю диски, если они уже хорошо подсохли, смачиваю и отжимаю их ещё раз, снова возвращаю диски с семенем в пакет ZIP и снова хорошо 2-3 раза полный выдох в пакет, закрываю его и отправляю снова в тёмное место! Ещё через 24 часа проверяю и вижу, что семечка проросла и показала корешок, значит пора садить! 👌 Я всегда пользуюсь этим методом и ещё ни разу семечка не задерживалась с проращиванием! Обычно ей хватает 1-2 суток, поэтому на 2 день или на 3 день можно уже садить! 👌 Удачи, брат! ✊😇

Hey Mate, how is it. Just tried the eazyplugs, have a look at my Diesel Auto Diary! Fastest, and safest germination I ever experienced. No watering, no paper towell... just the dry seed into a soaked plug. Have a look! Cheerz, OimRausch ✌️
