what would be too hot for germinating seeds i got like a lil incubater thing i made and the temps inside it read 88 or so would that be too hot?

myshadowshines

your right on the edge. start to go much over that and into the 90's and your screwed. i'd say around 80 works best for me.

SmokeyThaBear07

what about when they germ, if stick em in like a lil bubbler would they grow

myshadowshines

maybe, are you trying to experiment or actually grow the plant? not being a dick by asking that, just wondering.

SmokeyThaBear07

im just expermenting. im tryin to get things goin faster and with no dirt

You should check out the Collection of DIY threads theres a lot of tried-n-true ways of growing in there!

my experiment would be something like sprout them with the paper towel then stick the root down a lil hose into some water with the bubbler and have the seed setting in a lil cone i crafted into it and see what happens

good thoughts here SmokeyThaBear07 i've often thought the same. But IMO I don't think you can increase growth time just after the bean cracks. This is determined by the genetics of the seed. I know that hydro def is quicker. But I don't think you can do anything until the plant grows past it's dicot leaves (the first two leaves that grow). Correct me anyone if they know.

cheers..experimentation is a must if you want to learn though

And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielding her fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. (Rev. 22: 1-2)

I found that using H202 insured a 100% germination on my replacement order of Durban Poison seeds. I was so intimidated by them I used the hydrogen peroxide and they literally started cracking within hours by 24 they were all well on their way. I'm sold on that method because it bubbles them open you can watch it taking place and I used alot in a shot glass so the seeds were submerged in it. After a few hours I diluted with water and sprayed H2O2 on it every so often to re activate the bubbles. All ten cracked to the point three were all the way outside the the shell tap root pod leaves and all, very white. I planted them and they are above ground x 5 , 5 more to go. Today is day two I'll see tonight how many more are up.

Here's an analogy. Humans can use steroids to super size their bodies quicker than you can without. Plants on the other hand would die using the same methodology. However you can provide an optimum environment that will give you maximum results based on your genetics. You can't push them past nature at this point in time but you can set them up for maximum success based on their specific genetics. That is why knowing the strain and catering to it is so important.

I'm doing Sativa right now but if I did not know that and tried to give them the kind of nutes of let’s say an Indicia strain that loves higher nutes, I would burn it up until I figured out my mistake.
