Yeah, but i wanna try somethin different than bag seeds! Since I made it this far, I figured i'd try some strains that are a lil different and then see how i make out! And what's up with using a lil bleach? I've heard that before...... but it don't sound too cool!

I wouldnt use any bleach . I have a strain that came from Vietnam back in the early 70s . I got then from an old stoner that had them in his freezer . Dated back to his last grow in 1999 . I got a few to pop and have been 90% female . So IMO old seeds well pop.

Also, I am noticing maybe like 6 or 7 pistils growing out of 1 calyax! is that a good or bad sign?

dont squeeze , just soak them for a couple hours then use a damp paper towel and a cd case . put it on top of you dvd player and check it everyday. dont let it dry out . In a couple days they should gem and you can plant

By the way greendude, I've be using an old direct tv reciever as a heating pad. I'm glad that using my head is helping me make smart decisions. I wasn't sure how good an idea it was till you just told me that. Have you seen my setup?
