ok.. new person steppin up...

i had like 16 seeds.. tried to germinate them... now they smell like shit... my partner told me they're rotten.. out of the 16.. 1 germinated and 2 are showing signs..

so i moved them from the others, and let the others try n germinate still... watever ones do germinate..

now the 3 i have.. i dont have soil at the moment.. but i bought liquid nutrients, a whole system for it (4 bottles for different growth periods).. i made a solution with water and the nutrients.. put the seeds in a paper towel.. saturated it with water.. then diped it a lil into the solution.. put it in a container and put it in my growbox.. so that this way, the seeds that were germinating can get nutrients for the next step.. ya kno?

is this wrong? ideas and opinions?
