This Is It

1st Q: what is the best way to have the seeds sprout? and how long does it usually take?
2nd Q: is this fine for now? im using three fluorecent lights, 23W 120VAC 60Hz 380mA.. looking for an hps light asap..

heres some poop pics and the funny story is i was going frolfing today and found a plant and i decided to plant it since i have the light for now just to see how it grows.. and yes i put it on a cardomain page so i can post the easy way haha









and the seeds have a lid dont worry...

putting seeds in wet papertowel(not soaked) for a couple of days works for me!

To germinate, you can soak the seeds in a cup of water over night, then "sandwich" them in damp paper towel, put them in a bowl and put the bowl away on a shelf. Check them daily and moisten the paper towels when necessary. They usually sprout in 1-5 days.

The flourescents should be fine during germination.

will this ensure them to be female?

Put you paper towels into a zip lock bag or tupperware. This way if you space out and forget about them (I have a few times) they won't dry out.

I do it this way, I place my paper damp paper towel into a zip lock baggie,
with the seeds sandwiched inside, start to zip it, than right before it closes, I blow it up. Than rather than the moisture evaporating, it is like (oh my god, I am gonna kill this spelling) a terrarium, and re-circulates the moisture. Usually ready in 2 days, oh yeah, keep it dark and warm too.
Peace

No, but there are ways to increase the likelihood of a female plant

^^^^^^^ BUMP @ THE TOP FOR PICS!

i quite like small rockwool cubes , i treat them in water of about 5 ph for a day drop the seed in the top coulpe days later gerination and then drop cube and all into pots , no need to handle the seedlings .

there are lots of ways.

1. Put seeds between 2 wet paper towel and put them between plates and leave them.
2. Put seeds between damp paper towels and put the paper towels in a zip lock bag and put them in a dark place. (I used this method, I also had them on top of my CRT monitor to keep them warm, i dunno if this helps at all but it did work).
3. Fill up a cup with water and just drop seeds in them and put the cup in a dark place.
4. Put the seed in a jiffy pot or cube and add water. (Also tried this method, works great. Had a sprout after 3 days.)
