its not a good idea to let the taproot get very long, it is Extremely sensitive to light and rough handling ... if it peeks out of the shell, thats good enough, get it into the soil (1/4" deep, loose soil) also, try to place the seed taproot 'Down', gravity helps it get oriented to the sun ... you will have less chance of problems like 'wilt-off', etc. that way ... enjoy your grow ! ... :smokin:

P.S ... just curious ... if you are new to just germinating a seed, why do you have 1,619 posts in here ?? ... (seems a bit odd) ...
the image reaper Reviewed by the image reaper on . Are my seeds just shit? Well I tried to germinate on two different ocassions and it's never been successful. I'm starting to wonder if these seeds are shit? I take one to two paper towls and wet them then I place the seeds on them and place another 1 paper towl on top of the seeds and wet that, then I place it in a plastic bag and leave only (---) that much open for air. I would place it in a air-tight glad box or something but I have no room and I'm trying to germinate them in private without anyone picking up a box Rating: 5
