Thank you so much!

We love this house. It’s where we are both most content I think. He’s doing the other end of the pool as soon as it cools. I’m super excited to create a fresh new chill area together. I design he creates.
 
I’m doing a nightshift tonight and I won’t be playing with a full deck tomorrow. I have a seed issue. I’m having no luck striking an auto.

Blue Cheese Special in dirt #1 Opened her eye a tiny bit then stalled.

I seriously don’t know what to do.

So it’s taking all of my power with a semi rational mind not to try and strike all my seeds today to prove to myself they’re all ruined. I have one job tomorrow when I’m manic and borderline batshit cRaZy, and that’s stay away from my seed container.

I have actual anxiety about it.

Some of my seeds have been in my fridge for over 2 years. Do seeds go off?

Yes, but it usually takes longer than 2 years, especially in the fridge.

Mate I live in Queensland, we have the highest melanoma rate in the world. Any warmer and I’d be in hell lol.
 
This proves that it happens to the best of us Tra! You're the 3rd person including me to have striking a seed beat them half way to insanity! My outdoor grow almost went with a single plant because I had 5 or 6 go roots up before one struck! Thankfully! It was Runtz Muffin, the best outdoor plant I ever grew! I'm looking forward to what's next even if it takes forever now!

Omg it’s so annoying!

And good seeds are hard to get here. I have this panic I’ll not be able to strike one again.

If these last two don’t strike, it will be my 4th failures.

What if they’re all cactus?!
 
And for those of you who are just gagging to know what I’m reading:-

The Borrowed Life of Frederick Fife by Anna Johnston

The Borrowed Life of Frederick Fife is a warm, life-affirming debut about a bizarre case of mistaken identity that allows a lonely old man one last chance to be part of a family.

I've been having the same problem. I put down 8 seeds in the past two months and only 4 have sprouted. Mine have been in the fridge over two years too...hm

Hi Schnookie :)

I hope it’s not a bad sign for things to come.

I have quite a few seeds in my fridge. I hate the thought of them not having a chance to sing

Yeah I got a bunch too. But I also made about 3 or 400 hundred from my grow last fall and those seeds haven't gone in the fridge yet. I also had the fridge seeds out last year when I moved so they had a period of heat for a day.

Maybe I should take some clones.

It’s nerve wracking

It's not too warm, is it?

80f is about as warm as you want them to be....
When I was having germination issues, I found that my seed warmer (stove) was keeping the seeds at 86f...so I started sitting them on the router, (apx. 76f) and haven't had a no-show since...

It could just be a coincidence, but it's happened 4 times now, so there
may be something to it..:hmmmm:

Good morning C Snooze

I’m just gonna google f to the proper centigrade measurement…

26 degrees and no. My Bloom Room sits around 26 degrees centigrade. I can’t remember having problems before at this time of year.

It’s a right nuisance is what it is!
 
Right I’m off to do a mental health walk then try and snooze. My day today should be grand. I have a day to myself and a plan! Snooze, yoga, swim, Netflix, lunch, Sunday Summary, wine 🍷, dinner, collapse in bed.

See you later.

And I quickly want to tell you a joke our wardie told me on the way out before I forget.

What do you call a porn star who loves fishing?
A master baiter

Lolling!
