Sexy packaging and good crosses

Is it just me or do you guys keep the baggies and breederware afterwards and hold it like Charlie and his ticket to the chocolate factory ? :)

yea that would describe me pretty good. :cool:

Always a good sign :)

Today is day 5 since 26 beanz went into germination mode. To date 8 have popped. I am using a heated mat to keep the temps are 76 Deg F and am getting concerned at this point why I am not seeing more above ground activity. I typically see sprouts within 48 hrs using this method. With 100% success typically.

I am not sure why they arent moving faster as the beans were big and fat and very healthy looking. But I havent given up hope on the remainder. I hope to see more in the next few days. :)

I will keep an eye out and will post once I get a final germination count.

Did u pre soak until they break or have u just put them straight into a medium ?

I did a 24 hour soak, then into medium. Like I said I get typically 100% using this method. And the heater mat with 76 D seems to work real well. So I am a tad baffled at this point. :(

 

[jumpincactus]

Well I just peeked in and there are 3 more above ground. So that makes 11 total so far. :D

I used to use the same method but now I just keep em in the glass until then suckered pop if this takes longer than 2 days I change the water maybe speak with the breeder and find out about the germ times and if any of these have needed a little scuff to get em going some of these suckers have real hard shells

Hopefully we will hear from DG in the next couple of dayz. @DigitalGenetics

Got up this am and found 2 more have popped up for a total of 13. So far that is a 50% germ rate. But I will keep hoping the rest make it up. I havent given up yet. :D

It's that weak t5 fixture You gotta squeeze like 32 bulbs in that there tent :cool:.

You can fit 2 of these in there (47 x 24.5 x 3 inches) 160k lumens total.

Ahhh grasshoppa, hasnt the Master taught you anything yet? LOL When germinating it isnt about lux, lumens or PAR/PPFD ..........it is about temperature and moisture!!! It isnt until they break dirt that light becomes a factor. They are roasting at a comfy 76 deg like chestnuts by an open fire.

Seeds after a winter in the forest scruff work their way down into the soil and forest detritus and are perfectly happy in the dark.. So I am not sure I understand your comment. Or are you just attempting to get me in trouble with the boss lady spending more $$$$ on my op. :( She really believes departing me from my hard earned cash is her sole responsibility. :cry: And she does a damn good job I might add!!!

PS when taking your link this is what the site says, remember the devil is in the details slacker!!!!! :p

Hey guys I see there cracking now some need a extra day in the water to crack :)

 

[DigitalGenetics]

I usually leave the beans in water for 48-72 hours then put them in the medium :)

 

[jumpincactus]

They keep coming up. I'm thinking your beans were so healthy the shells must be extra thick. No worries!!!

That's what I was thinking :)

 

[jumpincactus]

Hey Farmers, been a few since last post. To preface if anyone else runs any of these genetics I would recommend doing a light surface scuff of the seed shell as these beans are very fat and healthy and I reckon this will help.

Or as the breeder recommends allow to soak for a tad longer before they are put to grow medium.

My final tallies are as follows,

" The WiFi Connection" 7 out of 13

" SnowBerry Blue" 8 out of 13

Other than soaking longer or scuffing I am not sure what to attribute this poor rate to as I typically get a 100% rate. Not hating by any means I am just scratching my head on this one. The remaining seeds just sort of disintegrated upon trying to handle them at all.

I will post up some veg pics once I get them upotted to larger shoes.

At the end of the day, I appreciate the opportunity to check out this gene pool and look forward to the rest of the run right up to a smoke report!!!!
