Its literally in ziplocks with nothing else...You know what im goiing to throw a handful in some soil of the really old ones and ill put a pic up...Im a do that right now...

Ok i threw a handful in a pot, like 60 seeds from the most oldest looking ziplock covered in old dirt and holes in the ziplock...Lets see what happens

To think, I was a young man when I made those seeds, enjoy your youth it goes by so dam fast, then health problems start......
Plant genetics frozen in time for nearly twenty years.... could be anything, amazing possibilities, very inspiring.

Have you ever used a hygrometer to see what humidity they keep your stash at? I’m curious if I went down a rabbit hole in researching seed preservation and am over thinking it
I have one in the fridge was more to make sure they weren't to cold, I did pop many desiccant packs in the fridge itself and hangs just around 45 percent

I also like to use Silica indicating gel + fridge. Vacutainers are nice, easy to label and pretty cheap when you buy them past expiration. They have a self healing cap so you can use a needle to pull out excess air as well. Seem pretty good for pollen mixed with silica as well but cant speak to shelf life past 6~ weeks in fridge.

day 52 flower, think i might harvest some of these pretty soon, sometimes i let plants "ripen" for a long time and it increases the cloudy thricome and some density, but I THINK sometimes the plants loose their smell when just baking under the light not really growing... right?

terpenado - smells like a strawberry flavor cigar

mango lotus freebie, this one is the least advanced, most sativa plant
that one smells so good right now... strong un-ripe sour mango

purple wookie v2, about to get chopped and re-vegged
it's pink and smells strong, like food poising diarrhea from oysters

Banana Spliff.
Three on the left are less than a week away from going to the flowering tent, just waiting for some space to get freed up. Once that happens, transplant, some bottom branches are just about big enough to take clones, and in they go to 12/12. On the right are some stragglers I planted approx. a week later, but they're getting there. I'm getting a banana/fruity scent on most of them, stronger in some than others. I'll be trying to make an f2 generation with any girls and a nice male that may turn up.

Picked up mountain temple a while back but havent done anything with them. Can you describe the smell? And please report back with taste and effect summary.

Still rough looking, but considering the conditions I'm not complaining.
about a month into flowering , Banana Spliff (left) and Blue Sunshine

1st cut I ever got to root (Blue Sunshine)

Nice going on the successful clone! You'll find that you will get better and better at it, sometimes it just takes a bit of confidence of having had a bit of success and you'll see now that you'll get even better at it. I boast a nearly 100% success rate with my cuttings; it's rare that I have cutting fail to take root. My method is pretty simple too, no fancy aeroponic clone-domes, just make sure your razor blade is sterilized, clean everything, be gentle and provide the right temp and humidity and they're good to go. One element that I think is key (and where I think lots of people go wrong) is lighting - early on in the first week of taking cuttings, they need subdued light BUT on the same light schedule as the plants they were taken from. It's always a joy to see those first pointy roots coming out of your medium (I always use peat pellets but I've had success in rockwool too)

Can't wait to put my Banana Spliff into flower. I'm enjoying watching the progress of yours so keep posting em!

Can't say you're wrong. I have an all led garden except cuttings. They get a weak little 2 foot t5 single bulb and it always works out. Obviously the other factors are important but powerful light just knocks them down.

I was taking the suckers off the plants anyway, and they were perfect candidates for trying to clone.
No sterile anything, only put them in water 5-10 mins later after cutting, but I cut at an angle again before placing in a 50ml tequila bottles.
Seems to me that Blue Sunshine was easier to root, than Banana, I have one cutting left and not sure if it has rooted yet or not. The Blue Sunshine, I pulled out to see if it had the roots and immediately stuck it back in :eyesmoke: Don't want to do that to the Spliff cut, I'll just wait to see. They are now in my make shift uhaul box, 24/0. (I've got couple of mangled Mephisto autos in there, they got evicted from the tent where Bodhi plants reside)

I've got a household led 8watt bulb that I've been using for germination purposes. Had the cuts in water for a while and they stayed healthy and green but zero roots in 2+ weeks. Got tired of waiting so stuck them in soil after drizzling some clonex on them and that seems to have done the trick.
