Indoor Simple question about temp

[swampman]

Ever Heard Of The FLATS ... homie....MARDI GRAS CENTRAL ....no fuggin way ...i am no longer around hro but I'm coming back soon College bro ...i was too old for college lol and i need My Boudin And Cracklins every morning

 

[swampman]

If those are fem seeds just toss them in the dirt ......
Some soak some papertowel ....they will crack regardless if the good ....just takes a few days ...shit some babies I just made didn't crack first time ....2nd try after a deep freeze them girls are above dirt in 3 days .......dont soak the soil but get it good and damp ...

swampman, what does deep freezing the seeds do that gives them a chance to pop again? I've had a lot of seeds in the past not pop and I figured I was just SOL! Please do share!

I once read some stuff provided from here...
Think of it like Nature ...Fall crops ...seeds drop ...snow comes seeds don't pop ....seeds get warm soil is damp ...Sun warms up....mmm. Seeds pop ITS SPRING TIME ...
I heard storing them does the same let them dry out ok for 3 weeks ...i got some seeds that were B seeds still tan kinda pale ...then there's those 7 week seeds that are A+ Bird egg patterns usually larger seeds ...
what swamp did was collect alot of seeds ...i took a couple of each soaked dropped trued to crack ..some did but weren't strong ...1 survived but was a male
Then I stuck then in the freezer for a few weeks ...took them out and I have about 90% cracking ...Only 1 batch my Creamy Dragons ..they were 5 week babies ...im having about 60% @n they holding helmets ...i tried 7 have 5 cracked ..4 DOA helmets ...so maybe they need longer slumber ..
U can also file em so say ..next I'm gonna add a drop of humic acid and give them a soak for a day ..

Well I don't think I am ready for starting a new grow thread YET, but very very soon. The fan was waiting for me when I got home, so I had to hook it up, without filter (maybe it will show up tomorrow) and without ducting. I put the vent sleeve real close to exhaust end and turned that puppy on with the light glaring. Waited 2 hrs later and took a peak. temp at 84 and humidity at 43, so tomorrow when I get ducting I think it will be just fine. :dance: So I couldn't wait any longer, I dropped one seed in some water, YEEEEHAAA. so now for more questions. I realized that if I am only going to do one seed now and if it takes 6 or 7 weeks, and all goes good enough I might do 2 seeds next time. simple math that leaves me sitting on 4 seeds for 6 or 7 weeks and then 2 seeds for an additional 6 to 7 weeks so I guess I need to put them in tupperware correct ? I read the thread about the rice and I will take my chances, so is best way to store them that long just put them in rice and tupperware in veg drawer in fridge ? second question once I see a lil pig tail come out of the seed do I need to do anything special or just start my tiered cup thing. I am going to try the JIY organic seed starting mix. I read that that is good stuff to start in. as always thanks for the help. and I LOVES me some Boudin. mmm mmm good. crawfish style. when I get the filter and ducting I will put pics up. along with drowning seed. I am going to be the biggest pain in the ass you guys ever seen. But maybe one day I can help someone out.

yea I think maybe I will grow more at a time or stagger in da future, BUT I have never grown a damn thing in my 53 yrs. So I wanna go slow and make sure I am doing it right. I know I will need bigger and better lights before that day gets here. So I am gonna grow slow and pick your brains before my ass gets in front of my head. dam I just hope I can wait that long before I have a anxiety attack.

OK I could not wait any more. My &&^^&*%$ filter didn't show up today. But anyway. I sank a seed (Northern Light fem) from Nirvana Thursday night and this morning you could just barley see a white tip sticking out one end. So I am worried.??? But I said to heck with it and put some Jiffy Organic Starter Mix in 2 different 16oz solo cups. I moistened it up with my Ph'ed rain water and put a new seed in one and the other one that was drowning in the second cup. now I have those 2 cups in my tent under the light. ??? is that correct way to get a germ from the soil ? and if so how long should I leave light on ? this is 2 of my 5 seeds and I am probably screwing up already. hope someone reads this and caould give a old fart some advice. I will put a picture here in just a lil while have to charge camera battery.

U can keep ur seeds in a dark spit until u see the heads pop up ..then introduce them to the lights ...ive dine both bro ....if the good and ready they will crack for ya ...
I just had a seed take 3 weeks to come up ..and now it's with a fem seed I was tired of waiting as well and now I got 2 in a cup unplanned

If u can afford around 300$ for a light id say grab a BLACKSTAR 240W ...FLOWERING. or the 6band ...
Its the best in tight space and easy with temps and electric ...its pricey but I wish I had that
