Hey everyone. I was wondering if any one was having problems with popping these? I just put 2 of the GDP S1s and 2 of the Grandoggy fems at the same time about a week or so ago. The 2 grandoggies came up about 4 days later and now they are off and running. On the other hand both of the GDP S1s never came up for me. It's been a week now and I dug out the seeds and they had never even cracked open or anything . I have always just put the seeds into my medium and just let mother nature do its thing usually with no problems and thats how I do it. I have heard of people scuffing or scratching seeds to help them open more easy but I have never tried that. Since the first 2 didn't go I went ahead and I'm trying 2 more with hopes they will come up as I only have one left. I was planning on doing a grow journal on both of these just as soon as I can and I will when things get going along a little further. I have already run the grandoggy before and loved it thats why its in the mix again. I really wanted just the pure granddaddy purple to go along with it this time as well.Any and all help is appreciated thanks.
. This could possibly be the way I germ which I usually have no issues with or possibly some bad or old seeds maybe? I had no issues with the grandoggies that I planted at the same time and they are almost 2 weeks old now . So far I havn't seen anything going on with the other 2 that I planted as of yet either. Fingers are crossed and I'm hoping they will germ for me this time. The seeds looked real healthy if anything I thouth the doggies wouldn't germ because there so small. I thought that the first time I grew them also but they came up in four days no problems at all. I bought the GDP S1 seeds in May of 2012 off the Bay. I think they were a relist when I got them. That's the reason I jumped on them I knew they were hard to come by and have not seen any more since the 420 fund auctions. I bought the grandoggies just before this a few months earlier but it doesn't show when I bought them anymore for some reason.
. I usually don't have many issues with this method. I have been doing it the same way for over 10 yrs now. I know there are always some that are not going to sprout and I'm ok with that . Its all part of the nature of the game, you win some lose some. I don't know if maybe my seeds are old,bad or just hard to crack but they gave me no love at all unfortunately. On a good note the 2 Grandoggies I planted at the same time the first go around are doing really good. I was planning on doing a dual grow journal on them both but now just the doggies are going to be in the show now. I thought I would just give my results with these and my method of germination because I really had high hopes for them and was looking forward to some pure grandaddy purple in seed form. Thanks and happy growing.
