@Midge, grow a bunch out doors and have a wide selection of strains. Just sometimes the stuff you grow is better or worse then the stuff you buy. coin toss. I like government weed, mainly their edibles, as its tested for shit vs the aftermarket options. even if it the buds look a bit shity, peace of mind knowing the mold yeast and bacteria counts are in a safe level cuz god only knows whats happening to that bud, people do weird shit. mostly all cross contamination and bad handling practices. Nothing to crazy just don't need it if I can avoid it.

@Sciolistic_Steve, usually yes, though sometimes, decapitation or unnecessary damage occurs like it can with the paper towel method. We can only do our best and what we are most confident with I suppose. I always plant directly and use a jiffy with the webbing taken off. I find the holes that come preformed once the jiffy is hydrated are the perfect height for burying cannabis seeds :)

@Sciolistic_Steve, you can also bury a seed to shallow. I similarly wont make that mistake since a couple of mine couldn't lose the seed case and ended up dying in their helmets :/
