Here we go again? Germinated seed didn’t come up.

[LoveGrowingIt]

Damn that looks like my Gorilla fail a few months ago. The cotyledons in the seed head separated and just had a stump that looked like that.

Am I seeing that correctly?

I screen captured the image I used from one of your posts. It reminded me about orienting the seeds. This, of course, is when seeds are planted in soil without sprouting them first.

there is no such thing as hot soil

I have heard the word "hot" used to describe fertilizers ever since I was a kid, and that was a long time ago. I suspect it mostly means there's a high nitrogen content. I recall that chicken manure is especially hot, whereas cow manure is not.

First time I heard about hot soil was in here when I joined and everyone told me not to put my seeds in hot soil

Anybody here mention sprinkling a little of Great White when using the towel method? Brother n law use to use that and had promising results.

I've never used the towel method, straight to premoistened soil. If they come up, they come up, if not, another seed goes in their place.

Sun, I am almost to that point of skipping the paper towel......the last few seeds went in peroxide water for 12- 24 hrs and like you said, directly into the medium.....spray with a spray bottle so the seed doesn't get buried deeper....

i think it is weird how some guys have bad luck with the pt method and some like my self have good luck with the paper towel method although i swapped the paper towel for a coffee filter and i do add kelp extract in my water

if getting seeds from a seed bank/breeder than 99% of them are viable and would germinate naturally so if your not getting pretty much 100% germ rate than it’s human error, seeds need 3 things moisture, air, and heat,. no light is required and can actually work against you in germinating,.

And if they do it, doggy style, she will have a puppy!

New seed is up. Old seed still the same as last post, frozen in time.

I used the paper towel method for years, but recently planted them in either soil or Light Warrior after soaking in a 4:1 solution of 3% hydrogen peroxide and water for 24 hours. After planting, I spray them with a mixture of water and kelp. I also had them under 5% light at 18/6. That seemed to work well.

I’m a noob. I soak my seeds in a shot glass at room temp 12-24 hours or until they crack.

Into the soil.

It has worked for me

Four parts peroxide to one part water? If I didn’t know better, that’s what I would think from that!

Oops! I wrote that backwards. Sorry. It should be 4 parts water to 1 part peroxide.

Not true. From what I've seen, your grows are excellent. I love your profile picture, too.
