hey there thanks for the tips you gave me well for germinating seeds, this is the only real tip i know of...just make sure everything is clean like 100% clean...i heard that these plants are really like babies and very vulnerable to get sick...so after you germinate them and you start sprouting, just make sure that all the tools your using and everything around is clean...if u have pets make sure their fur or dander doesnt get in your soil....are you growing indoor or outdoor? we are growing indoor
