Greenpoint seeds!!

[Bolt7881]

Hey guys wife is looking. For any seed supplier that carries anything with cake flaver that is 90 to 95% sativa she working on a strain she’s putting together we’ve had no luck so far finding. Any leads would be great we both think you all are some good great fun growers. And when we take that ride to co. To meet them dudes. Seriously our treat with a good atmosphere and fine eats we will get to know a few Fun people on the forum. ( yes the old guy and wife. Its our treat. ).

If I popped 15 seeds from the same breeder and every one of them kept dying, I think I'd take a pic. For science, at least. Especially if I was as mad as you seem to be.

For instance, look at these seedlings, they get a couple inches tall and then die.

I wasn't attacking you. Viability and lack of vigor are not common problems with their reg seeds, is all. That's why I asked for pics.

Yeah I know it’s just frustrating as hell wasted almost a whole month for the seedlings to keep dying

Here’s three, ones holding on and the other don’t wanna fully sprout and the biggest one, shit it’s the first one to actually grow some

And this is not my first rodeo I do the soak for 12 hrs then wet paper towel and and like quarter inch tap I use happy frog with a little h2o2 and ro water, I know what I’m doing and it’s nothing different than what I’m doing now

Very frustrating. The wife always does the germinating. She does it different. But always get them growing. We had three that definitely was not going to make it we tried a few things and they grew. When she gets back I’ll get her to share with you and hopefully one of the many things we did to get them going could be of help to you. One time we had to take tweezers and pull the outer shell off they wasn’t able to shed it. They was about to die It’s strange but most seem to have there own weird way of needing a little helping hand and some do just great.

We only use distilled water and it has been one of the beneficial things that always seems to work. We let our tap roots grow over an inch before we put in soil, and we soak our soil with distilled water at least one hour before planting. The distilled water adds nothing extra to the soil that could slow them down, due to the different types of soils. We watch them constantly for any signs of growth or problems. Depending some signs can be easy to read while others can be challenging. We use distilled to stay neutral from any added problems.

Couldn't look Helathyer my GPS Lady's... Day 9 here. The Sour Cookies (in the white cups) little behind but that's the Genetics nothing wrong here couple Days before i transplant them in Beer Cups. I am very Happy so Far.

Wow how many people take pictures of dead seedlings? You know what I’ll take a picture of one survivor if it’s alive I haven’t been home yet

Sounds like it sprouted just fine. After that its up to u. Ive never heard of someone sprouting 15 and not one lived. Thats all on you. Maybe you need to sharpen your skills on sprouting.

Looks to me the seeds sprouted just fine. You could have a pathogen in your soil or a pest.

Having a helmet on after sprouting is very common and something ive always seen for 30 yrs of growing.

If your gonna pull it off spritz it with water every few min for 30 min and the shell will soften up and will slide right off.

Could be damping off, about the only way I’ve lost any amount of seedlings, I have had them survive my foliar spray of clear Windex.

Exactly what i was thinking. Damp off is killing them

You've got it exactly backwards, friend.

LOL that post was musings that touched a nerve lol. I got answered when I posted on greenpoint forum, oopsie, my bad. anyhow as I get the facts, I just look forward like a weatherman. OK everyone knows the drama around Heisen vs. Gu.... now Heisen is working/partnering/ for/with Greenpoint correct? A previous post from GU (scroll back) stated "Heisen was doing the breeding for Greenpoint. Regular and fems" so I am just asking and musing about what is going on. Why i I post? Hey I am not a stockmarket insider, but IF Gu is not breeding any longer, then all those seed collectors/resellers will be watching what comes out of the changes. Greenpoint seeds state Gu and Greenpoint continue to breed seeds, Gu is not retiring nor did they sell to anyone, but that convo (I had last night with greenpoint forum) has been deleted. I am a customer at Greenpoint, I have/do grow their gear, and I think it is some of the best value on the seed market today. But when Gu and co. dwell in the world of media exposure, fandome and followers dote on every move their 'idols' make. It should be expected that questioning and 'rumours' will also proliferate. I associate all that is Greenpoint as Gu, I believe its called something like branding... The canna industry is all about growth, diversification, acquisition and change, right?

The way to eliminate seedlings from having helmets is to put them in the medium with the tap pointing up.

Lots of guys just plant the seed and don’t soak or paper towel them until they germinate

 

[hillbill]

Viva paper towel in a ziplock here.
However, truck farms put those seeds right in the ground.
However, most of their seeds aren’t $10 each either.

Soaking ore Paper Towel are not ideal. I planting the Seeds direct in the Medium ore in Rootcubes and 4-6 Days the Seedlings are breaking out. Why taking the Risk to Hurting the Roots.

 

[hillbill]

Minimal risk there.
