Seed Germination

Well I'm starting! And so far I've had good success with two strains, and a third will simply NOT germinate. I used the same technique of a damp paper towel in a warm dark area... first 2 seeds for 3 days then a 3rd seed for another two days, now I've added a 4th to a separate container just in case, and still nothing after about 36 hours. My other seeds germinated in 18 hours and 24 hours. Should I just throw all 10 in water? I have room in my grow for 1 more plant and I REALLY want to try this strain - Orange Bud. Does it just take a week to germ? Also, now I have my first of the three functional seeds above the rockwool and starting to form its first leaves! This means if I do germ an Orange Bud in the next few days she will be a week behind the tallest seedling so far. That might cause issues with the light heights and flowering times (all in one room). Thanks for any tips/info. I have some pics so far but they are just of sprouts. I will begin a grow log on here when I get 3-4 sprouting with leaves.

Peace,

I've read that germination can take up to 10 days, but in my very limited experience, it seems like if it doesn't happen in 2-3 days... probably not going to happen. Just make sure that it's warm enough to kick off the germination. Maybe these little seeds need more of a boost? I would probably try to keep them around 85-90F and give them a few more days.

I used to love the paper towel method until it stopped being successful. I put them in a paper towel for one day and then just about before they crack I drop them in soil. Works everytime for me.

Some Seeds can take up to 12 days but most germinate within 48 hours. Just have patience

patience always pays for me try to check every 12- 24 hours with minimul movement or light !

i soak them for 24 hours and then frop then in the soil. I dont know why people have such troulble growing ganja. Its easy i used spring water, good seeds from GB, and good soil. NO nutes and my plants look very healthy

Thanks for your help guys, I'll leave the 4 OB seeds in their damp paper towels for another week before I give up. Meanwhile, my first SSH seed has broken free of its seed shell! Hell yessss so exciting lol. Other two are still trying to establish good rooting I think.
