Curing Seeds, What some people don't know.

Hey guys,
I was wondering if you know how to cure seeds?
I have a bunch of seeds I want to prepare for planting and I cant get them to germ.
I use the papertowel method with very good luck except for now.
I have let them sit in a pill bottle for two weeks. Lid open every now and then.
I do know that the one plant was picked 5 days to early.
But the others were picked correctly.
All the seeds I am trying to germ are brown strype looking seeds.
Almost looks like tiger strype.
What do I need to do to the other seeds I have before I waste more?
Pleese all the info you can give me the better.
No luck on the faq's.
Thanks guys.

try freezing them overnight first...this may help you

throw the seeds in a matchbox or some shit where you can scuff them up a bit.

let them sit for 2 months.

2 Months...Holy Crap.
So that is about the fastest I could replant them FDD. I looked for your thread on this issue to no avail.
What is the freezing for? Simulate winter?????
SOB, I cant belive I have to wait 2 MTHS. until I can plant. This was good tasting smoke.
Is there any way to speed up the drying??
This SUCKS!!!!!
Thanks guys.

I've read the same thing 2-3 months.

It's been researched that 2-3 month-old seeds will have a higher germ rate than fresh seeds, that's all. You may still get some to germ now. Try soaking them in a glass of distilled water overnight before putting into the paper towel. Keep the towel damp and warm for a week, and keep a close eye on them.

good info for future i love this site !
