• So I got some bird seeds that came 5 to a pack . I am having difficulty getting them to sprout. I watch some of you get 1/4 sprouts. I can only get them to bust and show white then they stop. I have done the paper towel method with only being damp and in a dark place inside a container. I just got a clone dome and have 5 more in there with a…

    • Thanks for the question! What are you planting them in? I’m wondering if they start ok and then get some stem rot at the base due to moist conditions. They are very sensitive at that point with no ‘woody type stem’ defense

      • Once it starts to show any root at all, into the solo cup it goes.

        • It sounds like you’re using too much water and you’re drowning them before they can get going! I use the cotton pad method as described here use a spray bottle on mist setting and spray each cotton pad three times and then place the seeds on the pad and cover with another pad and spray the top one time and spray the inside of a ziplock bag…

          • I float seed in 5.8 pH in a prescription bottle for 12 hours and then onto a paper towel moistened with Homegrown Cannabis Cos. Germ Genie and pop them into a plastic Chinese takeout box, sitting on top of my warmest tent for 24. I’ve lost one seed in a year. GLOVES and cleanliness are a must too.

            • I’m gonna do this just once; i soak the seeds for 6-8 hours in water ina clean receptacle with a clean paper towel on it so the seeds get wetted all around if they float. Then put new ph neutral sterile soil in a clean 4″ pot, when i do a hundred i use jiffy peat pellets, but that is a bit different. So i plant the seeds right after soaking,…

              I’m having the same problem but different soil. “Black Gold” for seeds. First timer here as well so I find your question interesting. If you find out anything let me know please.

            • So I order several different types of bird seed from SeedsNow. All came in and I got some freebies.

              Since this is my first time I started with the free beans.

              I attempted to germinate the (5) in a cup of water then to a paper towel. Not one of them popped. Continued my attempts to pop them over 5 days not one root.

              Did some other freebeis the…

            • I’m I missing something here. the DGC show hasn’t been on Youtube lately with new shows. Are they just doing the paid patron shows now?

            • How do you kill the smell in your grow room and lung room? I understand carbon filters and have them in my tents. But my question is how do you kill the smell of trimming and drying in your lung room and when your working on the plants for trimming or lolloping?

              • U could maybe trim on the tent or ling room

                • You could scrub the air in your lung room with a large carbon filter. But the lung room would almost have to be sealed in order for to completely remove the smell.

                • Bacon or popcorn have been mentioned often. 🤣

                  • Fish fry afterwards?

                    My room smells so fruity right now, kinda wish I wasn’t exhausting outside

                    • thanks for the input everyone. I’m not in a good state. Everything I am doing is for myself and only me. So everything is on the down low unfortunately. I think what I am going to do is push pressure into my grow area from the lung room by my A/C and a filtered fan unit I made up.. I have carbon filters for my tents and I have one extra that I…
