A friend purchased 10 BB seeds and 10 NLxC99 from Joeyweed through a reputable seed bank.
I don't know what a satisfying germination rate is but for BB it was 7/10 that popped.
1 died shortly after planting and another one the other day, he's down to 5 now. The rest are extremly slow to grow. It seems like the seed cover itself was not breaking lose when they sprouted. Almost stuck on. A few needed some feather TLC to get the shell of the seed off the leaf. Once he did this they begin to do a lot better. All this under a MH light in styrofoam cups with perlite before he transfers them to hempy buckets.
What's strange is all 10 NLxC99's popped and all 10 are doing great. They are over twice as tall as the BB's.
Is BB this finicky? Should the seedbank(HD) do anything on their part?
