0 of 3 Sour Giesel beans germed. I did the exact same paper towel method ive always done with about a 90% success rate in years past. Big bummer. i set up another container with 2 more and heres to hoping theyre just slow and the original 3 plus the new 2 all pop here soon.
Get a temp controller and seedling heat mat . You spent so much on seeds why not give the the best chance at germination. Once I went to one years ago I almost never lose any seeds. I just germinated some from 2015 that people were complaining they couldn't germinated on ic mag. You won't be disappointed.

Been living in Humboldt county for 9 or 10 years now. I really need to try csi genetics I hear great things. Friends with Nat owner of Humboldt seed company so I get tons of free seeds but getting tired of running one breeder. Green fire genetics out in willow creek is pretty good too I hear.

Won’t be long before Nspecta has his nursery open and you will get to pick up his cuts

Update: 2 of 3 original seeds cracked and had a tiny taproot. I put em in soil as theyve been in the paper towel for 5 days which is a long time imo. Was and still am scared of damping off, well see. At least I have confidence in the other 2 now.

I have 2 250 cfm booster fans,one is bringing fresh air from the laudry room(i have the window open an inch for fresh air,and i have that fan on a timer so when the lights turn off so does the booster fan bringing air from the other room,i have another booster fan that pushes air from the grow room to the attic,i put a vent in the door of the growroom so when lights are off it pulls warm air from the livimg room instead of cold air from the living room

I heard on that giesel pod that CSI's Sour Bubba is one of his favorite crosses of all time, and that dude has seen more nug/plants than most of us combined
Most definitely, when he says something is special its worth paying attention to. I'll have to listen to that one again.

You’re missing out not ordering direct from csi

i feel like that's one of the reasons csi throws in so many freebies. sometimes things just dont germ well lol
I’ve popped 100 csi seeds and they’ve all germed. Every single one that I recall has germed. There’s a few runts and mutants in there, and that’s just genetics. CSI throwing in freebies has nothing to do with his germs rates. That’s all user error

I have some family stuff going on and in turn i made a series of rookie mistakes with the sour giesel seeds. I thought i killed 2 with moisture, popped 2 more that i thought i killed with drought while i was away, popped 2 more as a backup for the backup and now i have 6 healthy seedlings lol. I kept around the suspected duds and they all eventually cracked, even the ones that dried out completely. So in turn id say that they germinate excellent lol, considering they got abused and neglected like no seedlings ive ever hatched.
