Enjoying a nice cup of infused java with a tasty smokey smoke.
Didn't drop seeds last night. I wanted to fully warm up the pots. I turned on the lights full blast with no exhaust.
I'll probe the media later today and then try a little different method of germing seeds.
It's mainly because I'm gonna direct plant and I want to let the seeds soak in the tent.
I'll shake the seeds in a tube of sandpaper to take off the sheen and help quicken water absorption. It does seem to help quicken the germ and I think helmet head also. The shaking seems to roughen the edges where the seeds split slightly more there. I'm gonna set the cups in seedling starter box, set it in the tent and cover with a towel. I plant when I see a tin tail just barely showing. I'd rather not plant with a longer tail and stand a chance of damaging the root more. It never made much sense to me to take that chance. Especially, since we're only talking about 12-24 hrs. If you see a tiny tail, the chances it's gonna sprout are pretty damn good.
Plant 'em and water in a bit with some soluble BigFoot Mycos in it, cover with a cup and turn down the light. 24/0 until they all sprout and then 18/6 for veg.
