Maybe we need a pole to find out whether there are more puckers than soakers. Somehow that sounds dirty and I don't even know why.

when i get done pucking its really soaked.:lol: yea Nelson a pole would be kewl.

TOKE OUT
 
Hey one of you mods make this into a pole if you know how o do it. I sure don't. this is why I could never be a mod. Too much a computer nincompoop.

Yeah, the more I read all over the more confused I get! lol Some say pellets, some say straight to soil, some say soak, others say no soak! Confusing!!!

I think Im leaning towards germing in paper towels, then straight to it's final resting place. Which is Lambert LM3 mix, same as Pro-Mix. I have to keep reminding myself....its just a plant, its just a plant, its just a plant! lol
 
atpmixx all those folks that are using all those way to germ are all smoking dope in the end . pick the one you like and go for it, you can always try something different if you like.

LOL, I feel ya. It may seem overwhelming at first, but these are viewpoints from everyone in THEIR process. Pick one and go with it. See how it works for you and tweak it as you go. Or if you realize it is not what you expected you can always try another method next time. Ever process with growing is a learning avenue that creates the big picture: a beautiful plant that wreaks amazing rewards :smoke:
 
Yeah, I figure Ill go with my gut. Just getting antsy because my beans are almost here (Herbies-AKR, they have arrived here in the USA as of yesterday). I have everything set up and ready to go. So I guess this is just my anticipation talking! lol
 
Everyone gets like that lol
Do you have any bag seeds to try the different methods with?
 
Bang on you have totally done it. My wife is a great artist and I was going to take one of her bud paintings and make it into 4 colour silk screened Tshirts just for the fun of it. I was trying to find something to write on it.

IT'S JUST A PLANT

Totally perfect I love it.

One thing you gotta give Barneys is how cool the seed packet looks. It is shaped like a pot seed. A good seed company but great marks for their seed packet. I got one up on my bedroom mirror cause I like it so much.

Cool I'd really like to see this too. And I'd say choices would be:
-Jiffy Pellets(the little pucks that pop up when you pour water on them)
-Party Cups, to transplant later
-Straight into final pot AFTER germing, whatever size it may be.
->>Also whether you:
-Soak them in water until they sprout, and plant them, or
-Germ into paper towel until sprout, and plant them, or
-Combo of both, and plant them, or
-Direct placement of dry seed into whatever above choice was to germ.

Something like this. My opinion.

Squid out.
