A dream from a seed:

My father grew 12+ ft tall trees of marijuana in the 70's, before I was born. He just told me yesterday that he still has a bunch of the seeds from back then, that he saved. He basically said that seeds can be that old and still sprout with the right amount of moisture, so I got an idea. I am going to conduct an experiment to see how many I can successfully germinate and document everything..We are talking about seeds from the early 70's, so basically almost 40 years old in a few years..Does everyone think I am insane, or is there anyone here who thinks there is a chance they will grow, and I will have a very rare strain of weed for the times we live in now..Potency I care little about,(I know weed wasn't as potent back then). It is the fascinating fact that there is a miniscule chance it will work...What are your thoughts?

If you wanna take a trip in my Weed Time Machine, stay tuned for the documentary I will create to go along with time lapse photography of the plant..Maybe I will even write a book...Damn! they already did..Jurassic Park..I will call my book, Jurassic marijuana Time Capsule Park!!!

I am way to baked for you this afternoon.

Grow it! It's probably a pure sativa to grow that big.

Here's an old trick to increase viability:

Take some fine sandpaper (#400) roll it into a tube shape - with the abrasive side facing in - then put some seeds in - holding your fingers over each end - and then shake it for a while, in order to scuff the outside shell. This will allow the water to soak in better, and the seedling to crack the shell easier.

Giving them a little warmth will also increase their chances.

You may come up with the original Acapulco gold, or panama red. both killer strains

Hope it works!

Thanks a lot for giving me some input...I hope to have these going separate from my normal array of plants, as I am allowed to medicinally grow up to 12. Keep the dream alive people!!! It is getting better, and will only get even better..) : joint::j oint:

I am happy to say that I will be receiving the prehistoric seeds very soon..Does anyone have any suggestions on best grow methods for those older types of strains?
