What do your dragon seed look like?

 

[pop22]

here's some Dragon's Blood seeds. I think I may have a couple more black Dragons, i'll look.

Thanks @pop22 i appreciate it here are my recent dragon seed. They look identical and are hard but just dont look like what i am used to. I think it comes back to genetics maybe?

JEM seed

 

[pop22]

yours seem to have more of a ridge on the edge than mine, but yes, its likely genetics. All I pay attention to is color to confirm ripeness.

And thru testing I'll say don't toss ANY seed unless your swimming in them...lol. I've had a 35-50% germ rate with seeds that weren't ripe. great for outdoor/guerilla grows as you toss a handful to soak and plant the sprouts! So I only toss green or soft seeds.

update:
All 6 black dragon above soil! 4 of 5 Stone Dragon, one of 4 White Jem, and the odd girl out... the one Girl Scout cookies auto. I expect, or hope at least to see a couple more White Jem. Blue Dragon will probably be a few more days as they were only soaked a couple hours then direct to soil.

See that is usually what i go by as well. The color of the seed and they are different than the rest that i have grown. They dont show that strip pattern that the rest do that i have grown. I know that they were on the plant for at least 4 weeks so i know that they should germ. There is only one way to find out and that is test them. I have a few months before i can grow these out cause the baby is about to be born but i will be cracking them first.

Interesting on the germ rates that you had on the whites, i am curious what generation they were and who they are. once you grow them i may be able to ID them.

Pop, all the blue dragon seeds I have seem to have a real thick husk.. Some took 72 hrs to crack in water

Funny, the photo period version will crack in less than 24 hours! and you never know by looking at them. I've had some tiny seeds from some canna i thought would never sprout.

I'm sprouting another cross I made last summer. Female Seeds Critical 2.0 x Dragon's Blood. Just a mention will document in another thread.
