Thank you useful seeds.

I suggest not letting them go a few days in the towels. I would bet the farm that most will be cracked and have tails in the 24hour range.

Cheers :)

I feel like people start in paper towels because they’re too impatient to just wait for the results, they have to see them pop open almost on the minute. In which case, nobody is going to let their seeds dry out in media. Dudes be staring at their rooter/Rockwool/solo cup lol

I used to use the paper towel method and it worked fine. Now I see better results letting them swim for 24 hours and then putting them into peat pellets in a humidity dome. 1-2 days later they're usually praying, although some can take up to 10 days before breaking soil.

I just do it the way Mephisto Genetics Autoflower germ tek says. They may be off on their method but I just went with it cuz it was what that particular breeder does and it’s always worked for me. Used to drop in cup of water for a day then into paper towel but now I just put in paper towel.

I used to weigh it everytime I used it but now I go with 1or 2 scoops depending on how many plants im growing... Dammit Jim!!! There's the problem!!! Im thinking that I have a million plants going right now and its only those two!!!
I wish they would sell this in a powder form!!! It would solve the problem of overfeeding in my opinion... It seems like it's too much when the pellets are solid... And it takes way longer to break down... And I dont know why,but cal mag is a MUST!!! Apparently what's in it isn't enough??? People also say to add silicon,but it says on the package that it has that in it too... Im starting to feel like I'm being led astray...

I would recommend talking to @homebrewer if you have questions regarding nutrition. He is actually the one who turned me on to Dynagro, he has ran many comparisons over the last ten years of Dynagro vs AN Connoisseur, Dynagro vs General Hydroponics, his most recent grow was Dynagro Vs MC, and it was the only one I seen that truly held it’s own against DG. He can probably explain better what MC contains and what else to run with it, and he is crazy analytical.

here’s a link to his DG vs MC thread as well.

Mega Crop vs Dyna-Gro comparison grow

In your experience, are there any shortcomings to a FP only grow in coco that incorporating bloom into might address? I think I even seen a video where the owner of DG said that for cannabis he recommends FP and Protekt from seed to harvest. I might have to try both with the same pheno side by...

Okay deal I’ll check on them this evening and see what we have. Worries me starting good seeds straight into dirt cuz if it gets too dry, those things shrivel up like raisins and die

my process for germination, is I start them out in a rapid rooter. I soak the rapid rooters in a mix of PH’d water and 1/8 tsp recharge. I put the seed right out of the pack into the riot rooter. Then I take a small piece off of the bottom of the riot rooter to cover the hole I put the seed in. Then, I take my seedling tray, I fill up the bottom tray with 1/4” of the recharge water from earlier, and the cells that I’m putting the rooters into, i fill up with 1/2” perlite, and set the plug on top. The perlite wicks the water into the plug, without getting it too wet. I then place the seedling tray onto a heat mat connected to a controller, and i take the temperature probe, and place it into an extra rapid rooter, and set that in the tray. I set the temp to 80 degrees Fahrenheit, and set the tray in my tent about 32” from the light, without the dome on, and within a couple days, they pop up to say hi. I’ve had 100% germ rate with this method so far, and its super simple. Once they sprout, i dig a rapid rooter sized hole in a 1gal full of my grow medium (70 coco/30 perlite), sprinkle a little recharge powder in the hole and bury the plug in the medium, with just a little bit of the plug sticking up above the grow medium. I attached some pictures for reference in case you’re interested in trying this method, ironically the seeds in the pictures are Useful’s Orange Cookies x Choc D.

I run foliage pro start to finish in varying ml/gal. It kills. This round I’m doing best of both worlds. FP until third week of flower. Then mega crop bud explosion for three. Then water all the way out. Regular MC is too much N for flower as the above review kind of shows. Both still look amazing.
