Greetings,

My first grow, on the cheap. I've aquired an old PC case in which I'm generating seedlings and I plan to move them outdoors for most of the veg/flower stages.

As I've got nothing to smoke until I harvest, I've got a bit of time on my hands (probably too much) so I guess I'll continue this grow log to keep myself occupied (and the plants a bit safer

Germination Technique
As these are bag seeds over the last year or so, I'm not expecting a lot. I've got plenty of pale green seeds which I didn't even bother with.

I've taken a few of the better seeds (ie.about 6 or so brown colour with patterns/speckles) and placed them in a small jar of water. Placing the jar in a dark space, I've waited about 16-36 hours for them to sink.

Most sunk, great I thought. We're on track. I then chose two methods for germinating; the paper towel method and a direct plant.

Paper towel germination
Dampening the paper towels as per the countless guides, I used a tea spoon to remove the sunken seeds from the jar of water and dropped them directly onto the paper towel. I then folded the towel over, removed excess moisture and placed in a small plastic bag.

I then placed the plastic bag on top of a computer, which I actually think was too hot for it - very warm to the touch, much hotter than a fridge or hot water service. Nontheless, I kept the towels damp and waited a day or so (checking every 6 or so hours) for my taproot.

I only managed to get a couple of seeds to open and the tap root was barely visible (still curled up, about 1-2mm out of the shell). I figured this is all I needed to do, so I decided to go ahead with planting with all the seeds anyway.
