Tonight I put the new babies to bed in a nice napkin on top of a warm bed. Hopefully in a couple of days I'll have 5 nice tap roots to transplant. Took some pictures, and will post them tomorrow.. I'm just to tired to reize the pictures tonight!

Plans are to grow them under FL until they are ready for bigger pots and vegging. Then they will go under a 600W MH and finish under a 600W HPS.

I'm stoked!!!

Laying in bed I had a bit of a thought to keep them warm while germing. I put them about 4 inches about my soldering iron base that gets pretty warm while on. Put them there last night it was pretty encouraging. probably kept the towling and water about 90-95ish (F). When I woke up this morning - they looked the same as when I put them to bed.

However this afternoon when I got home from work I checked them and found that all 5 seeds have cracked and are showing the tap roots. Some are even coming out just a smidge.

A few pics will be posted in a little bit!

pics as promised!

Came home from work today to find 2 of 5 seeds with nice long tap roots. The other three are still in the napkin and the two are now planted in cups in Fox Farms Happy Frog soil and under FL.

Hopefully by tomorrow I can plant the others!

Seed number 3 has gone to soil. 4 should be there by morning. 5 is cracked... can see the root inside... just doesn't want to quite peek out yet. Hopefully by tomorrow morning or afternooon.

Number 4 and 5 seeds have made no progress... still trying to germ them but I also added two new seeds to the napkin as well.

Still no progress on the 4 seeds in the napkin.... three seeds in the cups are starting to poke out of the soil with one a little over a half inch tall already. pics to follow later today.

Starting to have my doubts about two of the seeds in soil. Still haven't come up yet even though the one is doing great. I have lost hope on germing the last of the first round of seeds... though I'm still leaving them just in case. The latest two I added look to be on their way for soil late tonight or tomorrow for sure. I added 3 more seeds so I have a few plants going. The goal was 5, but we will see how it pans out. Here are some pics of the one seedling that is doing good. All pics are from today at various times.

Its looking good, they should all germinate some take a bit longer just make sure the seed never gets dried out. What I do when I germinate is I soak the seeds in water until they sink then i put them in soil. All the moisture the seed needs to start it will have absorbed so you do not have to really water the plant until it has sprouted, all you need to do is provide warmth. I have had 100% germination rate for a while using this method. Good luck.

Thanks for the tips and reading my thread... I'm open to any feedback and advice anyone has to offer.

I'm actually trying the water soaking method this tmie around and the two of them have sunk and are cracked. So I'm going to go put them in soil now based on what you said.
