Yes, I just put 7 new seeds into a cup of water, going to let sit for 12 hours, and set them in a paper towel.
Going to put them in some small little things.
Would the 130 CFL watts be to much for 2 or 3 seedlings? (If they germinate)
For the cup germination method, how long is it before the seed is supposed to sink?
I read if the seed is useable, it will sink and dead seeds will float.
If they float, is there still a chance of germination?

3 of the 7 seeds sank to the bottum, I took them all out and placed them into a wet paper towel, next to my play station to keep it warmer.
Hope these suckers germinate!!

Waiting to get perfect lighting and more experience to make sure the baby grows to produce bud for months. llol

This is how my babies looking today
lotss of canopy lolI put a sheet of foil right ontop of the CFLs to reflect more of the lighting down. as you can see in the first picture.
When these seeds finally germinate, Im going to veg them for a week, and flip them to flower.
By then, Ill have my new grow room set up
4ftx5ft 6ft high. 2x4s as the outline, and a tarp to cover in the 2x4s.
Making my own grow tent for a total of 100$.
Including a 400 watt HPS.

Im going to get one of the two I posted a link about... Probably the second one, since the guy said the firrst one was 50 pounds.... (old basketball court light) hahaha
Im going to Home Depot in a bit to go get some more bug stuff to try to keep the one out side safer. Also going to go see if i can get the light socket adapter things and some Y splitters. wanna see if i can add atleast four more lights.

my gf when i first started out trying to get away from cfls got a 600w batwing off ebay for 120. came with mh/hps bulbs and a switchable digitial ballast batwing reflector.
i have 4 1k aircooled hoods
but atm im running that 600 and shes still working beautifully almost 2 years later.
screw the ghetto floodlight setup and mag ballast
just shop on ebay a bit
check out my journal you can see the light
