Are my seeds done for?

Yes. Your seeds are done for, toss them in the trash.

I suggest you switch germination tactics. I currently ditched the grow plugs and been using the wet paper towel method, placed in a cabinet by fridge. Just this week I got 18/18 from different packs. 6 PBB f3 from Thug Pug, 6 Candy Fumez f2 from Alpine Valley Organics and 6 Moonbow 112 IX from Archive.

Goodluck to you.

This is the method right here I use and get 100% success rate. I put the seeds in ph 6.0 water in a water bottle in a drawer with no light. Do this for 24-48 hours.

Then in paper towel that’s damp not dripping wet. Put the seed in the towel then fold it then fold again and put it in a Tupperware or a zip lock bags for two days. When you check you’ll have nice seeds with a tap root in it.

Ditch the plugs. I’ve never used them. Sometimes I order just one seed packs from banks to see if I can get the genetics started and I usually do. Plus it helps save money in a pinch being a master germinator

your issue is YOU! not the seeds,.. you water too frequently, your light is too close,. this stuff didn’t happened without a human involved,..

Saying things that are objectively true a grower with a bit much ego, or maybe is lost in the shitstorm of bad info from the net, should not always be taken In a negative context, get what you give. Static is static, one thing is true in growing even after almost 25 years of daily cultivation, it’s that no matter how old you may be, or studied for that matter, is school is NEVER over. I learn stuff all the time from this site, and another thing that is certain, we wouldn’t be chiming in to throw subjective guest into a chaotic grow, it’s more than likely that it’s from experience. As folks sit with crispy well done plants come harvest we pay it forward here, there was a time we all were on our fourth grow. They can’t all be zingers.
it just a bit odd when i see folks ask for help, then for whatever reason think they know better all the sudden. We wouldn’t say shit if we didn’t know. Well, most of the seasoned folks anyways.

I'm trying to find Columbian red bud seeds. 1973 that was the best pot around.

I’m new here, but i wanted to say:

My uncle was talking about that Colombian red the other day. He said the same thing…was the best around back then. I was born in 1973, so i have never had the pleasure.

Wish i could find some of those seeds or some land race strains like Acapulco gold or some Thai stick. My uncle would be thrilled if i could grow some of those for him.

cheers!

I planted 6/6 seeds 10 days ago give or take expecting 1 or 2 to die, because we ALWAYS lose seeds.
Last grow we were able to keep 4/10 alive. Sadly it looks like this grow we're going to have 2/6 alive.

We treated them all in the same conditions. Placed them in an incubator, kept at 80/80. Two sprouted out the second day.
The rest hadn't moved by day 7 so we dug and inspected. There were some taproots alive and well and we re-set them, but I think we may have drowned them.

I put them in a carboard box to dry the bottoms hoping they'll grow down and pop up, but is that likely after 10 days of nothing?

We ALWAYS have bad luck with seeds dying in droves. We can grow beautiful plants, but oddly it's this one thing we can't figure out and it should be the simplest.

We once did the paper towel method and gently put them in moist soil.
We once placed the seeds a fingernail depth in a pre-wet, but not dripping, pot of soil.

Every. Time. We lose a majority of our seeds which are really expensive and we're thinking of switching to cloning our plants to make it easier, but I'd still like to know.

Does anyone think these seeds have any chance left?
My plants in their dome under a full spectrum low wattage SpiderFarmer LED.
Watered with distilled (dehumidifier) water at 6.4pH, 80RH, 80F and Photone to measure the light to 12 DLI like it should be at this stage.

Does anyone have any recommendations, tips, or a YouTube video that will help a simpleton get a high success rate with seeds? People in Discord are telling me they're getting 90%+ survival rate so it's obviously my fault.

So I'm new to growing, on my 2nd run but so far I have had idk like 95% germination out of like 30 ish seeds to date. Method is 250ml distilled water with a healthy squirt of hydrogen peroxide, all while the tent is upto temp and humidity I place the cups on a heat mat and within 24 hours they all or most all crack open. From there DAMP paper towels folded, into a dry baggie not zipped back on heat pad. Another 48 hours you should have a half inch to an inch tap root. From there plant into wet peat pods into humidity dome, on the heat mat, under about 200ppfd and DO NOT WATER until that peat pods is done dry!

Well I was 17 in 1973. I've been smoking for 50 years, and growing off, and on for 35 years. I would compare C red bud, to any other strain. Even today's strains, I'd probably pick C red bud over them.

Metalman1 · Jul 19, 2024

I think Columbian red bud, is like a strong White Widow, is my best analogy.

Looks like a grower deficiency.
