How to Germinate your Cannabis Seeds!

Фильм және анимация

Germinating seeds is very easy, even if, for legal reasons, we can’t actually say what specific seeds we may be referring to.
The first thing to say is that not all seeds germinate at the same speed - some may germinate within a couple of days; others may take over a week.
To begin with, check your seeds.
They should be brown, hard and dry. If they look green and fresh, they haven’t yet matured and will not be ready.
The equipment you then need to germinate your seeds is not exactly cutting-edge technology.
Two plates, four sheets of kitchen roll, some distilled water, and that’s it.
Oh, don’t forget your seeds!
First off, dampen, but don’t oversoak the kitchen paper with the distilled water.
Then lay two of the four sheets on a plate.
On top of the sheet place your seeds, approximately an inch apart.
Then place the remaining two sheets of paper on top and gently press them down.
Finally, invert the second plate and place it on top to form a dome.
Now the seeds are in a dark, damp place.
To help them germinate, all they need is a little warmth, keeping them at a temperature of between 70 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
Over the next few days, check that the paper never dries out, but don’t oversoak it.
You will know when a seed has germinated as it will have split, and what is called the tap root will have begun to grow.
At this stage resist temptation to touch your seeds as they are very fragile and susceptible to germs.
Get some small, two-inch pots and fill them nearly to the top with potting compost.
Make a small hole in the centre of the compost, about a quarter of an inch deep using a pencil.
Then, using a pair of tweezers, gently transfer the germinated seed into the soil with the tap root pointing downwards.
Dampen the soli with a spray bottle to keep it moist, but if the compost becomes too wet, the seedling may wither and die.
We’ll cover lighting in a separate video as there’s quite a lot to discuss, so in the meantime, if you have any germinating tips, share them with us in the comments below, and of course if you enjoyed this video make sure to subscribe to our channel, so you too can become a cannabis expert!

    Well it´s no big harm done if you do end up with two in one pot it´s going to work just fine and you can replant one of them in another pot when they have grown a little if you want also. I never plant this deep as they show here and am not sure what´s with the keep them warm I keep them dark and on the cellar floor which is a little cooler till they surface. Then when you replant them to bigger pots remember to plant them low with the soil almost up to the first little leafs.

    Place a seed in a paper towel. Soak it with water and a couple of drops of hydrogen peroxide. Stuff it into a plastic sandwich bag. Place the bag in a dutch oven with a lid. Place the dutch oven on a heat mat. Guaranteed success.

    Using a bowl works better than a second plate. With a spray bottle, you just need to layer the 2 sheets, place the seeds apart, then place the other 2 sheets and spray the paper towels with the bottle, cover with a bowl in a dark area and wait a few days, be sure to check on them after 2 days to ensure the paper towels are still damp. Once the tap-root has sprouted you can immediately plant the seed. Make sure at first you are not over watering the plant, this can cause mold growth and draw in pests, even with a drip pan. It's always better to let your plant go thirsty for a small while than attempt to combat mold growth on the plant, one is easily treatable, the other almost guarantees death or complications with the plant itself.

    Erm, I put three seeds in three little paper pots on a seed mat and covered with soil. Seeds were about quarter inch from top of the soil. I have three leggy ladies two weeks later. Place them on the windowsill. I think it’s what I have to do later that gets a bit more involved and hands on.

    It’s very hard to say with these things, it’s not uncommon for seeds from an identical mother to germinate at different times. With that being said we’re talking of Mother Nature and a numbers game. not all seeds will germinate. Sad fact but the truth. Some will be duds and some simply premature. You should hope for an 80% success rate, but 50% or less is not unheard of. Thanks for watching 🙏

Just use rain water, or put tap water in a milk/juice bottle with a lid on out in the sun for 24 hours. The uv rays kill all the crap in the water. Put that in a spray bottle and you're in business bro.

    Does not need to be distilled, as long as the PH value of water/feed is 6.0-6.8 for (soil) or 5.5-6.0 for (hydro) If the pH is lower or higher than that, the plant cannot take in nutrients, even if they are present-thus spurring nutrient deficiencies via "nutrient lockout".
