Apr 23: Germinating in Kannabia petri dish with thermometer and towels. It is a nice simple germination system.
I’ve always found just soaking seeds in water on a heating mat works great, but this germinator looks nice and easy too.
Amnesia Haze GO Fast should be a good grow. Starting two seeds to pick the better one.
Apr 27: transplanted sprouted seeds into starter soil in peat pots. I’ve never been a fan of germinating seeds using paper towels because I usually forget to keep them moist but not saturated. Also sprouting weed seeds in a glass of water is so easy and foolproof.
The Sproutly germination kit from Kannabia is a smartly designed simple device. A petri dish with an accurate thermometer so you can keep it at 22-24 C. The biggest tip for starting seeds, including things like peppers and tomatoes, is to get a heat mat - totally worth it.
The last video shows how I do seed priming with ethylene gas given off from a couple of apples. There was a scientific paper i saw in a news story somewhere that explains it. The gas helps promote or regulate the gene expression in the growing seedlings, but a key trick is that it should only be applied to the sprouted seeds just before they are exposed to light.
Been doing seed priming the last two years, and yes it works.
