These work. If they are just bag seeds chances are you could have gotten some under developed seeds to begin with. If they are from a bank then wait a bit longer. I used to use the paper towel method. I get a better germination rate with my Jiffy Pot greenhouse.

I agree with Hoss. If you bought it from a seedbank, then give it some time.

These are just seeds that i have from broken up reggie.

Reggie's usually have a lot of seeds that are no good. Usually ones you can break very easily with little pressure. Make sure the seeds are good. When I germinate my seeds I just use a plastic jar put them in toilet paper, and close it. They usually do it 2-3 days after that. If they dont work just find some new seeds. They're only reggie right? Also isn't august A LOT late unless you're doing indoor?

Don't sweat it too much I use the exact same method you use for germinating seeds and so far its had about an 80 percent success rate with bagseed and even higher from seedbanks. Right now I was germinating 3 reg seeds for my friend and it took them about 6 days to germinate. After a week though I might suggest finding new seeds.

If your seeds dont germ quickly, its likely they wont grow quickly. Id try a new batch of reggie seeds and dont waste any more time with the slow seeds~

Agree with Vumar.

I was feeling that my original batch ( seeds werent gunna germinate so i did what most newbs do and poured a shit load of seeds onto a paper towel and put it between two paper plates behind my tv and i put the first batch in boxes outside (its always super cold in my house(frozen buds, yo)), so i smoked a joint to calm down. As usual stoners do i forgot the seeds behind the tv and two days later all 15 seeds germed and where 1/2" long.
Thanks guys for all the help!

OH and p.s. the first batch had 4/8 germed but they just cracked today...

+rep to all, thanks for help again.
