I thought I'd go over my theory on why this works (based on the success the real researchers have shown as my own experiment is still underway). The goals of the research projects centered around using lasers to overcome adverse conditions in the initial stages. One of the best was meant to...

The experiments I read about used 10 milliwatt, red lasers for an average of 20-40 seconds depending on the size of the seed. According to my calculations, a typical 5 mw, made in China hand held laser can be used for 40-60 seconds depending on the thickness of the seeds outer covering and how...

Wow this thread woke up. I had some work issues so I took a bit of a forum break there. The goals aren't just about germination - the studies pointed to all around benefits in the test plants, especially in growth and bloom. The study that was able to germinate seeds without water after laser...

I want to stress that although the results are interesting and so far match up with my expectations based on prior experiments using other plant species, I can't call it "conclusive" at this stage without further testing. For starters, two types of species control is needed - one of random...

Day 4 Comparison: Three of the four irradiated seeds have already outgrown the humidity domes. The difference between the two seed groups is amazing. It will be interesting to see if the output maintains itself through the entire growth and bloom cycle.

Laser treating four of the seeds on wet paper towels Laser treated one seed off the paper towel to see if heat would be an issue (measured surface temp of seed before and after using probe - a 4 degree change was measured after 40 seconds of irradiation). Laser treated and soak germinated...

Build a commercial sized incinerator into your home and use it as your grow chamber. Security alarm setup to trigger the incinerator if anyone enters the outer room without a code and rfid chip on their person. EzPz (I looked into large gun safes a while back with the intention of modifying one...

I'll come back and add the photos once I edit the EXIF data to insure privacy. I germinated 8 seeds and used the laser treatment on half of them. For once, I have 100 percent germination success using the plate and paper towel method for 6 of them and the soak method for 2. The lab experiments...

Good luck and I know how you feel. I've been plotting a poppy grow and small lab operation to create my own opiate compounds for fun and to save money on expensive Rx's. I think my project is probably a hundred times easier to pull off than setting up an acid lab but then again, there's always...

A large number of studies have been performed in the agricultural sector with using lasers to pre-treat various types of seeds for germination. The goals and findings include: - germination of seeds during periods of extended drought - elimination of parasites and bacteria - a "kick start"...
