Some people soak seeds for 12-24 hours before the germinate them...

THIS is CRAZY.. in my opinion.. every once in a while you hear a story about a guy who forgot his seeds in the cup and DROWNED THEM... yikes

I put seeds directly in soaked rockwool cubes and get 99% germination...

I've used both paper towel & cup with water in it. I actually like the cup method better. At least in my opinion but everyone does there own thing.

I take a mason jar, fill it about a half of a centimeter and just add some seeds, then put the jar in a dark warm area. Usually my desk drawer :joint::peace::peace::peace:

Not really, the differance is you know what your growing. Also the seeds tend to be a little bit more successful :joint::peace::peace::peace:

my bag seed generally germs faster than sto' bought beans...... but the bud from ordered tends to have a pretty much guarantee on it to be better than bagseed because you know what you are getting, but that dosent necessarily mean that bagseed is no good gene pool either. just tends to be A LOT less good ones. but most are mediocre if raised right.

hey i am pretty sure any one of these methods will work, but i actually prefer the sponge method. Take a standard NEW!!! kitchen sponge and take a razor blade, cut the sponge length wise so that the sponge becomes thinner, but dont cut all the way through, 3/4 is enough.. Now place your seeds in the middle of the sponge and dampen the sponge. put in dark WARM place. Seeds wont germinate if its cold. I like this method because it lets in good amount of oxygen and tends not to drown my seeds.

okay ill try that. but still, where can u get reliable weed seeds:confused:
Out of your best sacks and off the net. Trust me, its safe to buy em of the net. But i would try and grow some seeds out of some sacks, so that way incase you mess up, they wont be 40-80$$$ seeds.
