Indoor Heavyweight Seed 1st Leg LAST PHOTO CALL

[Arthur]

Quick update, originally I dropped 2 fruit punch girls, 1 came up, the other was a no show, so on the 31st I dropped another, and it's never cracked. So I've got my entry, but seem to be running into a germ issue. I can't stand to look at an empty spot in the tent, so I dropped one of my 3 bears/sour livers crosses yesterday... it's split, and tail showing... that makes me 1 for 3 with the fruit punch and 10 for 10 with my meph gear, since December 17th.

At least this girl is coming along nicely.

We should at some point collect our results,
and give a germination % for all our seeds,
maybe even split it up by strain.
That could be good information for HW
and also other potential growers.

So far I am 0 out of 2 . 1 popped a tail and quit. The other one did not crack for my turbo buds. Trying one more from them now. Using paper towel method as usual.

Belated weekly update

I dropped 3 skunky monkey about 9 days ago. The first time I've ever dropped any seeds in a cup of water and had them sink to the bottom right off the bat. That had me a little bit worried. they didn't crack after 24 hours so I left them 36, that's my typical time with any seed. I then went directly into General Hydroponics Coco pre-charged with the general hydroponics Trio. Which is exactly what a general hydroponics rapid Rooter is, a pre-charge Coco plug.

Anyway after 7 days, I went looking around for the seeds and I didn't find a single one, what that means is they didn't even get a Taproot to help find them.

I've been debating how I'm going to start my next seeds I thought about abrading the outside and kind of an old-school way before dropping them but they sink right to the bottom so I don't believe permeability of water is an issue. This time around I'm going to go ahead and add in the paper towel method, I quit doing that a few years ago when some really vigorous seedlings would grow their Taproot into the paper towel and I would damage the Taproot removing them. But I figured using the paper towel will give me a chance to see if the Taproot will even emerge and I won't have to waste time if I don't see a tap.

So if that method doesn't work, I'm willing to try a little gibberilic acid. It's been known to help seeds start off that are bit old and I've used it in the past with some success. Looking at my heavyweight seeds package I don't see a date but there is a code.

Do we have a representative from @heavyweightseeds on board? always nice to have feedback from the vendor.

I've had one other time when I put down three seeds from the same company and have them not start, that was with Barney's Farm gear. At that time I bought them from the mug shop and I had some buds on another site the bought theirs from Herbie's and we all had some real significant germ failures, consequently I've never purchased any Barney's Farm stuff again.

So I dropped 3 seeds and I was very happy to see them still floating, I think that's going to be a very good sign compared to the others.
