Im not a grower but what all of my friends/med growers are starting to think the best germ rates come from just planting the seed in rockwool or rapid rooter plugs in a tray w/ reservoir & humidity dome w/ a heat pad under the whole set up. Everyone has been getting near 100% or 0% depending on strain and where it came from.

The NL that I posted about below all surfaced in under 36 hours! She planted them all upside down though, lol.

It worked fine however. The only benefit to paper towel germinating from what I understand (and I look forward to knowing more) is knowing that the seeds are good.

More of a worry than a problem I bought some seeds from Nirvana Shop and I germinated them at least i think, this is my first grow ever and I am just nervous things wont go right . I've read and watched videos on how to germinate but I still dont think I did it properly. I went with the seeds submerged in water on wednesday 10/8/08 and 5 of the 5 popped I guess the next twenty or so hrs. The roots on all of them except one of them which was just a little bigger could of been no bigger that about 3mm long. I didn't think Rating: 5
