One time in like 2nd grade we put lima beans from a bag in wet paper towels and after like a week they started sprouting and stuff and then we planted them.
I dunno how that's really related..it was cool though.
Maybe they're shy seeds.

was the paper towel dry or something?
I cant imagine a reason other than insuffiecient moisture and they dried and died.
yeah...ive never heard of that before....
they probly dry out and just wither back into the shell or somthing?
maybe too cold?
why are you changing where they are?...why dont you just pot them when they sprout?

Don't hope they were expensive seeds!:p
Just place them in a moist paper towel right away, and wait from there!:)
Fuck complicated!:D

was the paper towel too wet? You dont want them to be getting too much water when they're seeds

No, there is no such thing as to wet!!:p
Just try again, if you fail again, you were not meant to grow!!! lol
Just try again and again and again!!:D You will get there eventually!:)
Just go all the way with the paper towel in germination..!:)
But for some noobs, it's better to just throw the beans straight into the soil, as they sometimes mess it up, when they put the beans into the soil!:)

I have heard of this before, not personally, but I have heard of it.
I'm not sure why they do it, maybe the condition change from jar to paper towel, and they reacted to maybe germinate again :confused: I have no idea, shit.
After you see a white tail though, they should be getting planted in some soil and let veg. begin :thumbsup:
Sounds weird though, huh.

You must soak your seeds in water (Preferablly Distilled or RO) for 24 hours. Then you will place those seeds in several moistened folded papertowels. Once the taproot (Plumue) is 1/2 inch out of the shell (Testa) you will then put 3/4 Inch deep into loosely packed soil. Germination can take up to 3 weeks with some harder shelled seeds like African Sativas among others.

Niiiiice. First grow I ever did was Black Haze (Black Domina x sativa haze) and man...prepare for a skunky plant
Mine was a male and it still reeked. Tastey strain though

Everyone! Check your e-mail.
White Widow is a nice strain too, I've also had the pleasure of producing that as well. Skunky as well! I had to cut early due to the harsh smell, as I don't have a proper venting system right now, but potent as fuck! The best I've smoked yet.
Speaking of smoking...I have to attend to Mary Jane now. :pimp:
