Hi all, I am a strict hydro clone grower and have never started from seed befor.

Can someone be so kind and give me a step-by-step on how to germinate seeds.

the basic method has been the easiest for me
Just put them in a moist paper towel and drop it into a cup or jar with just a little bit of water in it in a dark place for a few days.
Usually 3 days is enough for the seeds to sprout.
then just drop them in some good soil between around half an inch deep maybe a little bit more with the root actually sticking somewhat up.

so, you want the white root to stick upward? I thaught it is supposed to be placed down into the hole, so that the white part grows down?

I use the same method. lay the seeds on kitchen paper, cover with another sheet and then soak them. Keep them wet for 2/3 days and they will crack. I like to plant as soon as they crack rather wait for a longer root. PLant with root down but it will find its own way up so don't worry too much, I've seen roots grow and then dive back down as the seed 'rights itself'. Soaking them softens the shell. Keep the tissue wet for 48 hours and they should open up.

Hope this helps in some way, honestly good quality seeds will just jump out of those shells for you!

First of start with two tea sacer's both the same size,then get some kithen roll and roll it aroundyour hand so you have a nice cusion.place this on one of the saucers and get a 1 ltr bottle add 1 drop of multithrive to the ltr of water then spray the tissue till it is nice and wetpoor off any excess water.put the other saucer on top of the first saucer like a clam,then put it into a plastic bag with a few small holes in check on them a couple of times a day after first day.forgot once you put the seeds on the tissue spay with a misster you want to be doing this at least every day don''t let them dry out put somewhere dark and warm should have sprouted within a max of 3 days but if any ahvent give them more time.this method is called the clam and has never let me down,just ph the water after adding the multithrive you want it around 5.0/5.5.the bag will help keep the moisture in but make sure you punture a few holes in it.This style has never let me down you will get the odd none viable seed but it has 100% sucess rate.
