Well i soaked them in a a cup of water for 12 hours then did the paper towel for 36 hour til i had a good lil root put them in some pete pellets and they just didnt go from there. They was in the pete pellets for 3 days and wasnt seeing any progress so i peeked down on them and they was turning brown and the tap root had not grown any. I went ahead and but the back on the wet paper towel again but im sure it all over for these girls . Its getting chilly at night in my house but i had them on a heating pad. I know Im new in all but these Auto Pounder seeds just seemed really small an just didnt look right to me to start with. Just piss me off for $12 a seed and to loose them sucks. Just droped my free seed of WW, its not an auto but we will try again. Not going to use them pete pellets this time , going to get some seed starter soil this time. Just put a order in with Alibongo for a mix of 00 seeds auto pack and give them a try. Man, im just so excited to give this a try, spammed a bunch of nute companys for free samples and got a bunch of free nutes all ready to go. Not going to give-up tho, live an learn as they say.
