The greatest thread of germination knowledge can start here with this so have at it and share what works, what doesn't and what you've never tried....

ThOughts ideas and suggestions please have at it.....

Think gonna do what works for me the paper towel method. ..... keep yaposted

I've never used papertowels, but it's obviously very popular for a reason. Moist rapid rooter does the trick every time. I grow in dwc so the rooter is its final destination anyway, no point in adding another step.

Rapid Rooters work the best for me.

Hey man if you got confidence in what you do . I couldn't devote the attention, it would dry out on me , life is so crazy , something usually came up and bc I have a stealth grow, I need that extra time .

I use the rapid rooter, I squeeze it out , place it in a humity dome until I see it break the surface , remove the dome . Works great . I also place perilite between the tray and tray liner with a mix water and kelp . It helps with humidity,but dosent soak the cubes .
It's just what I do good luck.

Once they germinate in the RR, I put them in this.

I soak my seeds for 18-24 hours then straight to my growing medium

I put the seeds in a moist coffee filter and into an open sandwich baggie. Then I put it all into a tortilla warmer with a CFL light bulb in a desk lamp over it for heat.

Then when I see a good taproot I plant it in a 16 ounce party cup full of ocean forest with about 20% perlite added watered in with good runoff. I also use a cut off pop bottle top without the cap to help protect them while they sprout. Little personal red cup with dome.

It's my ghetto propogator.

Yeah ive seen the paper towel method in a sandwich bag hung in the grow room so the roots grow vertically. Probably gonna try that next myself.

The thing about the coffee filter is that the taproot does not stick at all. You have to be careful it doesn't roll off.

Tip came from the breeder at CH9 seeds.

Plop the seed in a shot glass and put in a warm, dark place. If the seed is good, it cracks within a few hours. If it's old, it could take a few days.

Stop using paper towels years ago. To me it's just bad practice and only use the soil if growing in soil and jiffy pellets if doing hydro
