do NOT pre-soak your seeds ... place DRY seeds, into 75-degree, pre-moistened soil, and don't overwater ... this whole 'pre-soaking and wet paper towels' thing has killed more seedlings from Pythium Wilt, than anything else, I can think of ... I know you won't take MY word on it, so here's a thorough explanation from Mike, of Mandala Seeds ... like my signature says: 'imitate nature' ... good luck ... :smokin:

Germination
the image reaper Reviewed by the image reaper on . soaking seeds 24 hours before germination i just got some really good seeds from california..i would be so upset if i ruined the grow in any way. i was just curious if you guys soak the seeds in water or just throw em right in a wet paper towel and into the zip lock. i personally have never soaked my seeds pre-germination, but if you guys say its worth it, i'll definitely give it a try.
