Check out post #2999I got one bridezilla to survive. Hopefully it will impress.
If not, I probably won't run the other tester packs for a while.
As far as my germination process goes, I recently sprouted a bunch of Cindy99 seeds for my outdoor crop and they are all doing just fine.
Just like the seeds I sprouted *before* bridezilla.
Zero problems.
In other words, it probably wasn't my fault that most of the bridezilla seeds wouldn't germinate.
Just sayin'...
I tested that first batch and got about 80 percent. It was only about 30 seeds I pulled and than gave the rest another week before I pulled em. Not sure what happened. Might have had something to do with them big peat pellets as I saw the rest you had in smaller root riots. Sent you some more yesterdayI thought you said I got the scabs since they were freebies.
First batch or something like that?
It's cool man. I don't want anything, but it's obvious that my process isn't flawed.
I had zero problems before trying to sprout my pack of BrideZilla and I've had zero problems since.
Nothing has changed.
PM or email?@ Heisen
did you get the pm i sent you?
Hey Heisen, do you think you will ever do a reverse auction like GPS sometime in the future, or sometype of loyalty points That would be pretty cool. Not that your prices are bad or anything, just a thoughtPM or email?

It's an odd thing but "fresh" seeds often won't sprout or will give problems that "older" seeds will not, (not years old, but months old seeds are the easiest to germinate). They are not fully viable until they have completely dried and they don't lose that moisture until after they have left the bud or the bud has itself dried completely. Also when you get fewer seeds on a plant, (like thirty) they often get thicker and that can make them harder to sprout using "normal" sprouting measures. So what works great to sprout most seeds can often fail when sprouting super fresh seeds or seeds that have a thicker hide.Yeah I thought of that, so I sprouted the cindys in peat, rapid rooters, and little cups of fancy stuff called "no damp off".
All three did fine.
(I've also had good luck with rock wool but didn't use it for this test.)
Maybe I had some contaminated equipment during the problem time???
It is possible since I lost a whole tray of lupine and dianthus to damping off around the same time.
Pretty sure that was a batch of soil that hadn't cooked long enough.
Anyhoo...
I am blown away that you sent me another pack!
Seriously.
It was a freebie and I wouldn't complain if you gave me leftovers off your floor.
I only mentioned this because it's important to be honest.
At first I was pretty sure the problem was on my end, but now I'm not sure.
Just wanted to give you a heads up and see if anyone else had issues.
I wonder what Heisen going to drop next ?

When I create seeds, I wait at least two months to sprout them and if they are the extra large seeds, that you often get when there are fewer seeds, I'll scratch them up and soak them in water for a couple days until they sink and then put them in paper towels.
Trying to sprout "fresh" seeds, especially ones that came off a plant with few seeds, directly to a growing medium can be problematic. Trying to grow any seed before it has a chance to completely and fully dry will either lead to complete failure or a plant that doesn't get off to as good a start as it should.
I wounder what Heisen going to drop next ?
I'd veg them out more if it was me. But it's your call because you know how much space you have.Ghost bastards are going along just fine. I'm trying to decide if i wanna just flip em now or actually veg em out. The flower tent is all smaller plants right now anyway but i feel like it's kind of a waste. I'm just running out of weed and really impatient to see these bitches flower lol.View attachment 4260View attachment 4261
You should get em asap. Pretty sure he paid to overnight them to me. Thanks H!Man seeing all you guys popping these beans is making me sad cause I haven't received anything yet but I did get shipping.
Fucking canada post...
