Loving the PinballWizard quotes... Long Live the Germinator 3000. d
Thanx for dropping by Dlovejah, love the berry patch you got going in your neck o' the hood...:thumbsup:

Are you seeing any changes in your babies at all? Are they doing something inside the cubes or can you not tell? 4 days seems long enough for them to show the first few leaves.....at least on one of them since you know they cracked and have a taproot.
I'm afraid I don't understand your germinator thing at all so I skipped over it......always done my mine in rapid rooters so I'm sorry but I'm just not sure about your cubes......and whether or not they are a problem at all. Wish I could be more help......sorry. :(
One last question.......how wet are these cubes? The seedlings aren't overwatered are they?
not over watered in the cubes... I saw a thread that stinky did... and how she germs in a test tube in a dark warm place then when the tap root shows she drops them into cubes...so I thought I was doing something like that..I just wanted to try something different then the paper towels I've done in the past..But think I might have killed these beans some how...I opened the hole in each cube to see the beans.. the tap root is still exposed in each cube but they don't seem to be getting any longer. so I moved the seed up higher in the cubes hoping they will still sprout wish me luck, cuz I think I'm gonna need it with these ones...I hope I haven't let the Ganja Fairy down:sadcrying
and keep them warm.....even a regiular heating pad on low with a layer or two of towel between it and the seeds will help. Along with keeping them warmer; check and see if they need more water if place on top of heat......,mine seem to need watering more and I keep them on low heat during germination.
I'm keeping them over heat, a CFL... w/ a fan blowing on it the temps are between the high 70's low 80's throughout the day...got the cubes in a jiffy pot tray with the lid on loosely(didn't wanna pull out the larger propagation tray w/ humidome)...I'm staying on top of making sure the cubes don't dry out, and not get over watered...I modeled the GERMINATOR 3000 from stinky's post on germinating, in one of her threads & some tips from a Jorge Cervantes book...Maybe I left them in there too long..I dunno...starting to bum me out, that I might have ruined my chance at a good strain, the MK...as I do still have some more SNLxNH beans...I'll give these late bloomers a chance at life, but if something doesn't happen soon I'll be looking through the bean bag for some more....I can't say if I'll be using the GERMINATOR 3000 though, it could get an early retirement...lol...Quote:

As I try to decide if I'll give him another chance, let me ask what all of you out there in Cannaland think? Or is it user error...Hmmmm...

d4,
Love your McGyverish contraption...I have tried many ways...The tube was a med tube with fish meds...Worked well...then on to the vermiculite, this worked quite well..but the last method of using the rapid rooters, was the best way so far..Mandala Seeds technique suggested by Image Reaper has turned out to be the way to go, and I have had the best poppage rate in doing so...:thumbsup:
But keep on trying and you will eventually settle on a method that suits you fine...
Peace,
Treetops :D
Hey treetops thanx for the info bro...nice of you to pop in and visit hope to get a lil more action in this thread, but I either have some late bloomers, duds or I just plain fucked it up...hopefully not the latter...
D:jointsmile:
the husk on 2 of the SNLxNH is beginning to push through the surface of the cubes...hope they all will do the same...I'll give yall the news as it comes...
