hi there buddy,

From my experiences with germination it is better 2 germinate indooors 4 a few reasons. The actual germination rate improves drastically, I think this is bcos its warmer indoors. Also u can start ur plants earlier by starting them indoors. this means ur plants will b bigger when u put em outside(I am assuming ur growing outoors) which mean the end result is a bigger plant.

hope that helps mate, there r quite a few posts on other threads on germination and the "paper towel" technique which I use.

if you dont have the space to start your plants indoors, starting them outdoors can be just as good. I suggest starting in seedstarting trays or small pots with some sorta clear dome over the whole thing. this makes for no bugs or anything eating yur stuff, plus u dont have to water. once they are big enough move them to bigger pots, or their outdoor hole.
