BEST way to germinate seeds

hey everyone, I know there are several posts concerning this method, but I keep reading different shit, i'm a new grower and i would just like to know the most simple way but effective way to germinate my babies. Thanks a lot!:rasta:

just like most posts read: soak in water for a coupla hours, lay between wet paper towels, place in Open ziplock bag, lay on something warm, computer cabinet, TV, etc ... away from direct light ... mine usually pop in 24-40 hours ... :smokin:

Hello,

mrpibb1988 - Here is my method for germing seeds.

â?¢ place desired amount of seed into a glass of distilled water

â?¢ allow to soak until they sink - this could take up to 24 hours.

â?¢ take seeds place between the layers of a damp paper towel, not wet.

â?¢ place paper towel into a ziplock baggie, blow into the bag, and seal it, trapping the air into the bag.

â?¢ place the baggie in the center of a magazine, usually a centerfold bud shot for inspiration...lol

â?¢ I then place the mag onto the ballast of my hps light.

â?¢ after twelve hours I open the baggie and refill it with air, seal it, and put it back.

â?¢ after another twelve hours I check the seeds, at this point most of them are usually cracked, showing signs of their tap root.

â?¢ for those that are not yet cracked I put them back and check in on them once every 6-12 hours until they have all popped.

â?¢ this method may be to involved for some, or not enough for others, but it works consistently for me, giving close to a 100% germ rate. If a seed does not germ using this method I think it is because the seed is a dud, not that it was germed improperly.

Hope this helps.

Peace
