Seed germination confusion

I bought some seeds from Nirvana seeds, Full Moon. They just won't grow and some times will not germinate. I had some random seeds I got from friends and i put them in some water and they germinate and are growing and show leaves in like 3 or 4 days. What the hell, why are seeds that i ordered not growing but random seeds i have acquired grow so easily. I am doing the same thing to both of them. I use cfl to start out then i use my hps, i start out with 2600k 200watt equivalent cfl lights. and I start them off with 12 on 12 off to get them to sex as soon as possible.

Oh and I have a hydroponic system DWC

Good question! I germinated 4 seeds 2 weeks ago and 2 never germinated and the other 2 roots poped out of seed, plant into soil waited 2 more weeks seeds never created flower. I was pissed. So i try again on a red dwarf, she better give me no problems! Hey did you happen to store those seeds before you tried to germinate? If so where were they stored?

I won't pay for seeds! How much are you out of in dollars?
Some seeds do pop easier than other! And some pop a
lot faster. I've seen some sprout in paper towel in a day and
a half then other seeds take a week?

I've heard mixed reviews of Nirvana's seeds and genetics. Personally I just popped 7/7 seeds from DinaFem. One was taking a long time and I needed 6 so I took the ugliest, most deformed seed and tried it. 3 days later it's got a taproot an inch long in the paper towel... FUCK!

I got northern lights and full moon, the full moon sounded really interesting. I paid like 45 bucks for the both of them, and no I didn't store them before i planted them. Do I need to store them before I plant them and how and where do i need to store them??? and I agree Nice Ass

Keyra Augustina I believe.. very nice. Google it up, just bring a towel...

And no, you shouldn't need to store seeds at all. A quality genetics provider wouldn't ship any seeds that wouldn't feasibly germinate at the point they ship them UNLESS it comes with a warning or disclaimer and special instructions.

Check this out.....I just place a Budda Seed: Red Dwarf Autoflower into germination yesterday. I'm so impatient, that I placed my paper towel in a black bag and placed it on top of my 250w Hood and the Root has popped out of the seed very quickly and nicely. I will leave on there until tomorrow night, then she should be ready to plant. I have already prepared her soil. I also have been storing my seeds in Mason Jars.

I just "store" mine in the little vial or small jewelry Ziploc bag they come in. My first order from the 'tude I got a crush-proof tin and they just stay in that in my nightstand drawer.
