first time ive ever had purchased seeds fail to germ. gc is sending me some gg4 autos as a replacement at least...going with another breeder most likely after this, unless the gg4 blows me away. doubtful .:WTF:
 
I’ll be popping everything tomorrow or Wednesday ... do I post here? Sorry I got myself involved in a few battles and it’s my first time competing !
OK guys and gals, we are down to approx 4 days before your germ pics are due. I'm going to tag in you guys that haven't submitted germ pics yet. If you were tagged and have already posted, please direct me to the page of your post ... Thank you for your cooperation! :headbang:

I recommend getting hydrogen peroxide 3% at the local pharmacy or dollar store and mixing 1 part water to 10 parts hydrogen peroxide. Get good quality paper towels and submerge them in water... with clean hands or better yet gloves squeeze out the majority of the water so it is wet but not dripping (when you lightly squeeze no water will come out, but not too dry). Wipe a container your using to germinate in down with 99% isopropanol alcohol. Unfold your paper and fold it into a square... put your seeds in the middle and fold over. Place your container on top of the pantry above your fridge. Once a day open the lid and lift the paper towel up to allow the seeds to air out and get fresh o2 for about 20 seconds. Within 24-72 hours all of your seeds will germ. I’ve never lost a seed with this method.

the only difference between our methods is the hydrogen peroxide. until this last batch of critical purple...ive had 100% success as well..with seeds of all types for many years. good advice though..why 10/1 hydrogen peroxide? interesting..

(last response. Dont want to jack this thread :) )

It helps prevent “damping off” & other pathogens taking hold and ruining your seeds.
Also PH the water after you add the peroxide
