I now use this method...which Image Reaper passed along to me from Mike Mandala heres his method which I now use with 100% results so far...I do use the rapid rooters and a cap for PVC pipe...add a little water (5.8 ph).

This is Mikes Mandala's method...

For an optimal germination result the seeds should be planted DIRECTLY into the substrate. We clearly advise against using pre-germination methods or soaking. Please do not place the seeds into a glass of water or in moist paper tissues. Fresh and healthy seeds prefer a nurturing and airy substrate to germinate in â?? just as mother nature has meant it to be. Cannabis is a plant species originating from semi-arid and temperate biotopes and the vast majority of modern cannabis hybrids contain a substantial percentage of these genetics. Cannabis seeds are not adapted to swampy wetlands, but they are suited for germinating in well drained soil/substrate. In nature they rot if they fall into a puddle of water...and there are no paper tissues lying around either. Taking into account these botanical facts, it is quite logical that by creating germination conditions that are similar to those of the natural habitat one can expect the best results.

Good luck,

Treetops Reviewed by Treetops on . What Paper Towel Brand Do You Use? Ive been having a terrible time germinating seeds as of late. Ive used the paper towel method, but I believe the cheap towels dry faster. What brand of paper towel do you use? I heard a sponge work good too. Comments? :rasta: Rating: 5
