Re: Cannafan's Perpetual Grow - Where Everything Changes - Autos - Photos - Seeds & M
I put a drop on them and wait an hour or so. They usually have fallen off by then. For the first time ever, on the Hemp seeds experiment, I had one come up with the seed barely cracked open. I kept putting moisture on it, but it just wouldn't open up. I finally wetted it and used some sharp tweezers to pull it open. Unfortunately it appears the cotyledons inside had turned brownish yellow, it appears they may not make it. I'll have a pic later.
That one was of the group of three not presoaked and went directly to soil. The other two seeds never popped at all, I waited long enough and went digging. They were just sitting there with nothing going on, closed up tight.
I'm guessing you used the drop of water method? How often did you put drops of water on it & how long did it take for the shell to come off?
