Aaahh...i'm on my second try on 24k seed from Mephisto.Maybe not a coincidence...Thank ya do you got a heater vent? Those work well too. I'm actually perfect for about the last 28 or so. The only few that hasnt germinated for me in a year was an old stock freebie that was told was old stock. A plant hermied on me said what the heck and I tried 11seeds and I got one to actually grow. And then mephisto 24 carat i only got 1 out of 3 to germ. And at that time a few others contacted me and said they had problems with theirs as well.
