I know HD just plants his seeds as the cut and paste I offered suggests. Well maybe he doesn't do it exactly that way but he has mentioned that he put's 'em in dirt and has had a really good rate of success. I'll do the dirt thing next time as my success rate in germin' last time with paper towels was crap.

Just thinking Marc .............I do sometimes you know

I did once when I first started growing do everything I have described above and a whole pack of ten seeds refused to germinate. However I did send off for them from a magazine ad, so I think it was the seeds themselves that were duds rather than my methods.
Anyway know I always use seeds that I have been given from friends or I stick to buying Sensi seeds, they come in packs of sixteen and usually all germinate fine, occasionally though there might be the odd one that refuses to go.
