haha KJ take a bong rip everything is going to be ok its alright that there not popping just yet some seeds are just harder than others for the hot mat problem you got going on
get a towel and place it on the mat assuming its a rather thick towel have two layers between the pad and the seeds then take another layer and place it over the seeds i kinda thought about it and felt bad that i didn't tell you to do this before i was thinking about my mat which actually sucks for heating but in this situation it works or nice because the heat isn't very intense im assuming yours isn't a piece of shit like mine so give that a try and i know you don't want to hear it but maybe you guys got some old or bad stock unfortunately it happens you know but lets not think negative just yet give them another 48 hours and let see what happens
Ok...*bubble...bubble...bubble* ahhhh!
I'll do the towel thing with it and give it some more time. I'm confused because our method worked for 3 of our beans, but it failed for (so far) 5 others, two different strains from different breeders. So which is it? The method, or the stock? I guess we'll have to keep on testing and see where we end up!
