Yes. I find it really helps my germination rate!
I keep them in water about 18hrs, then into a moist paper towel for 3 days. Plant the seed, taproot down and wait. Another 3-5 days and ta’da- 🌱

On older seeds, I'll always soak them in PH'd water for 24-48 hours. On newer seeds I'll soak em till they sink, usually 4-12 hours, and then do the typical paper towel method with a heating pad on old or new seeds.

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.

First Time GrowerI’m first time grower and would like some help on choosing my first seeds. I’m doing an indoor grow, LED lights, Soil Medium, prefer high yielding and high thc, feminised as well.
I’m planning on doing LST and using a SCROG to allow a higher yield.

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.

Seeds in 12/12Does keeping seedlings just the first week under a 12/12 light cycle can hurt them? I have some seeds that are not sprouting after 7 days, maybe it's because the outside temperature is too low so I decided to keep them in my growbox with my other flowering plants until they startSetup.

Cold Temps, Seed-to-SoilThis 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.Week 1

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!

Pre-soak seeds or start them directly in rockwool?Hi all, just wondering what everyone's personal preference is on this topic. I've tried directly into rockwool and went 6/8 and 2/4 with the duds never opening/showing tap root. Used minimal nutrient/pH'd water and treated rockwool properly.Week 1

Germ to soil Seed grabbing toolHey 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!Week 1
