So recently my near-perfect germination rate for Mephisto has been crushed. So I use the recommended tech, damp paper/dvd case, wrapped & placed on my router - this has worked for my dozens of times without a failure. Between two grows I had moved my router vertical on an upper wall and needed a new source of gentle heat. So I used a ridged pet heater, pretty similar temps. But it didn't work, with everything else being the same, it just stopped being successful...over and over again (top row + bottom left + 2-3 more you can't see). Got some rubber bands and went back to the router...100% on the next two (bottom right).

...temp is a key factor obviously.

Temps are key. Paper towel is actually counter productive. Even the ones that germed dont look that great. Cup of water, darkness, and 80-85f temps. Nothing else needed. Drop of H202 is ok, but not a neccessity. Temps must be stable, no matter what method you use. Adding a paper towel and a dvd case makes things less comsistent, and paper towel often damages fine root hairs. Good luck, slow.
