welcome to icmag zby67! :wave:

feel free to ask anything anywhere, people are more than happy, and stoned, to answer :)

its hard to say from looking at seeds, but the sooner you start looking after the green things the sooner you learn, because there is alot to learn.. i personally would put them in a small amount of water, somewhere warm (20c+/- is fine), with a lid covering it and see if they pop over a period of 3-5 days,,, if they do wait until the tails are 1-2cm out of the shell before potting them..

moisten the soil thoroughly before making a small dent in the middle of the soil about 2-3 cm deep, place the seed in the indentation and place a few small bits of moist soil on top, 1 cm is fine, just to cover it from drying out.. then dont water for at least 3 days until the seedling has pushed up out of the soil and the soil is starting to dry..

you want to use as clean a soil as possible for seeds and not very rich with good drainage/airation so that the seeds dont get killed by microbes before they can break fully out the shell.. rich soil is usually teeming with microbes of one sort or the other..

if using flourescents to light the seedlings you want them as close as possible without burning them.. 1-2" max.. dates and measurements are to give an approximate idea based on what i do..

other use the "paper towel" method for starting seeds but ive found drawbacks to that personally..

good luck and many happy grows :smokeit:

it can be a tough learning curve but its always a fun one :ying:

Welcome to IC Zby67,
I'm with the others - the sooner you crack them suckers, the sooner you'll know what you got! You never know what you're gonna get from seeds & I hope you find a real stellar pheno amongst them.
Best of luck!

:tiphat: Welcome to IC.
Before you pop those beans read the stickeys at the top of each section. Decide what you want to grow them in dirt, hydro, ect. lots of different ways to go at it. Do lots of reading and use the "search". Then pop them beans and best of luck to ya. :plant grow:

No difference with the flash..they look viable but where did you get them? Your source is important, was the weed really good weed or do you remember the strain? You can find TREASURE by popping bagseed but if you have no clue regarding the genetic background you might have herming and other traits you'd rather want less of, no biggie IMO just breed it out by choosing the girl that expresses it the least if it does happen - but for people who dont care for or dont have time for small breeding projects herming seeds can destroy noobs..or just make your juicy bud taste like burnt popcorn. That's just me being really high and typing a lot though no worries fucking pop those beans and lets see what happens!

I used to play the shit out of Diablo II and still logon to pvp or bullshit sometimes, USWest realm. I'm more into games like DOTA2 now and I'm on Steam constantly, haven't been playing games as much as I used to because of work now but I remember my battle.net days well.. Welcome! :tiphat:

for what its worth i got what was left of the bag so theres no way of telling how good the weed truly was. the few buds i had were good not as good as what i normally get but hay. as for what the strain i bought i have no idea. i plan on planting 2 seeds at a time and see what happens. take it one step at a time. DOTA2 looks like league of legends almost.

well man.. I dont know, what do you seek for in medication? what do you like as just your general head or stone? Based on not knowing what it is I'd maybe try and get seeds so you know but there's fun in mystery seed if you're not too concerned or are in a hurry to cure any ailment. DotA is the game LoL is based off of and has been around almost a decade longer, starting the A-RTS/MOBA genre. It's different but pretty much a really watered down dota, also stripped of all the technical shit and less penalties to make it more approachable, which is why its so popular. Dota is renowned for having one of the hardest learning curves ever, next to EVE Online (that one game where people spend IRL years grinding for ships that cost thousands of IRL dollars). Sucking at the game is a reportable offense, lmfao

enough about games from me lol I hope you find contentment with your medication and if something cool does come from these mystery seeds that would be awesome, a suggestion I just thought of now is grow those out while still trying to find beans that you can have a solid lineage on.

well if nothing good comes from these i gained experience in growing and got some ify weed to smoke till i grow the next better seeds. i like more of a strong body and head high. i loved the sativa i smoked for a good time that was comparable to an indica i smoke exact strains i dont know names. but both have alot of crystals inside and outside of the buds.
