Mandala's germination rap

I was looking into some Satori for my next grow and I read Mandala's bs about not pre-germinating seeds and using rock-wool insted etc. Read their link it's like rocket science.

Fuck these guys, too complicated. If I can't drop my seeds in some tissue for 24 hours and then pop the seedlings into my soil using the two step method then I'm not going to buy their fucking seeds. I can usually get the seed poped an sprouting from my soil within about 3 days using the two step method. Mandala wants me to stick my seed in some soil and wait around for a few weeks to see what will happen, fuck that mang, I don't have time to fucking pray over my seeds.

There are hundreds of strains that pre-germ just fine in paper towel. I'll just stick with those strains instead.

I did like what Mandala had to say about soil though.

So you're saying fuck them because they're suggesting a different germination method?
Whatever, you're missing out on some incredible values and rock-solid genetics - some of the best-priced beans on the market, IMO. And a seed is a seed - germinate them any way that you're familiar with, the result is the same. Speed Queen was the easiest, hardiest most trouble-free plant I've ever grown, and Satori is a top-notch sativa. For less than $30 usually!

I think they're just giving some good advice considering 90% of the people who order seeds to begin with couldn't grow a decent plant to save their life, let alone germ them in towels, gently place in soil while providing the correct moisture level in said soil and humidity in the surrounding environment. That being said, paper towels are my choice, if I'm not cloning.

Gentlemen,

I stand corrected and I apologize. Thanks for the correction, I'm looking forward to trying their Satori.
