So I haven't posted anything in any forum for quite some time. I guess that I just didn't have anything to say... At any rate, I have a pack of Erdpurt and one of Lebanon on the way from ACE's site and some Zamalidelica and some Banghi Haze freebies on the way from Seedsman. I have been spending entirely too much fucking time, in fact, reading about, looking at, and of course dreaming of growing and breeding ganja over the last few days. Honestly though, I am just going to be excited to grow my own herb securely for the first time in a couple of years. Even though I am on the legal coast, finding a spot to do your thing, when you're poor is ducking hard. It is usually just making due and having balls.
To the point, all of this landscape fetishizing has reminded me of some really old seeds that I was gifted. How old? Old enough that you would probably tell me not to bother. However if you don't throw the Dragon eggs onto the fire, how could you possibly esteem their potential? Having a background in tissue culturing in mycology, my plan was to attempt to germinate them in sterile test tubes with plain agar. The seeds, I envisioned soaking in water with a tiny bit of something like miracle grow, but I mean a tiny, tiny bit. Then, there is a solid kelp extract that I have used to stimulate germination in other, hard to sprout species (not Cannabis), with great success. After this treatment I would wash them with dilute bleach and then several times with plain, sterile water. Then they would go into the agar and be incubated at say 25c.
I thought then about something like Superthrive. It is less complex than the kelp, but has b1. Also, maybe miracle grow isn't best. Maybe it is more ideal to use a specific formula/ratio of lab grade hormones of ab&c. I don't know. That is why I am asking. I figure that some of the folks, in this specific sub-forum, love old school herb as much as I do or maybe even more and have faced similar dilemmas yourselves. So what do you think? What do you know? Play jazz.
P.s. already checked Google and it is sparse. Going to try and soft through academic literature at some point, but figured I'd go fishing here.
