Well I have done quite a bit of research but as some of you may know this field is a bit unorthodox and some of the information found can be quite conflicting.

For instance, my experience has proven the paper towel method germinates them well, but when transplanting I have not the most delicate of hands so sometime they get decapitated. My solution would be just to germinate them very little.. maybe 1/8-1/4 inch.

Now I have no experience with Rapid Rooters but I have heard some reports of the leaves not making it out the top and root rot. I think these people probably put the seeds too far down or didn't use the proper amount of water but I would like to hear someone say they have done this success and that way I can avoid handling the seeds at all. I'm not really worried about knowing if they germ or not because they are some quality feminized seeds.

I have tried to do some research on germination on this forum but there is only one sticky with regards to how to build a box with a air pump and heat pad. I'm not looking to use either unless there is another benefit besides speed. If there is someplace else you would suggest looking besides maybe searching germination I would be glad to do my own research but I think I may have to go outside of this forum to do what your suggesting. Maybe the moderators should sticky another thread about germination.
