the last 17 seeds ive tried to germinate have failed to spout

ive used the same method as the first ones which sprouted in 5 days

root riot cloneing cubes with bcuzz rot stim added

the only difference is i used a heated propogator as the airing cupboard is not warm in the summer

do seeds not sprout if its too hot it was 35+ in the propy

ive ripped open the cubes and theres no sign of life from any seed no tap root or anything popping out from the shell but i split a seed and it was a lovly white ball inside canot see why they not grown after 16 days

is it worth trying to germi theres seeds another way?

if so please advise

cheers buddy

Lower your temps a bit. You want about 25'C. Too high and moist and you could get mold.
Why are you using cloning cubes for seeds? Plain ol' potting soil is just fine. Go ahead and let them pop in a paper towel first so you can be sure they sprouted.
