![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | so yesterday i was looking for something to do and i was thinking "hey self you have that huge bucket of seeds why dont you go through and throw out all the obviously non-viable seeds and put the good ones in some sort of vacuum bag" so i take my bucket outside to soak some rays and smoke some jays and sort mah seedsbut yes thats right kids there is a but the dreaded but i started to sort. then, being the relatively short attention spanned person that i am....i got distracted, yes DISTRACTED! i say, by a tasty looking pack of hot dogs in my fridge and i completely forgot about the seeds. i was only about a 1/4 of the way through since it is a relatively large bunch of seeds(id say about 3000-4000). so today i wake up and am like "hey self what should we do today?" and then i go outside to check on my babies and do the routine when i notice the bucket sitting outside most of you by this time are saying "ok this guy left a bucket of seeds outside whats so bad?" however being in the tropical paradise where i am (south florida) it rains and it just so hapens it rained last night and lo and behold my bucket of seeds is full of water SHOT SELF IN FOOT luckily it didnt fill enought to let the floating beans spill over the side however now about 3/4 of my seedstock is wet and im panicky as all hell and am trying to dry them the best i can and am hoping i just didnt totally assrape myself with a sandpaper condom and no lube DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS?!?!?! please o please o please help meh ![]() | ||

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Depending on how much water your seeds imbibed you should be ok.In fact, many commercial seeds for flowers are soaked, then quick-dried before shipping to the greenhouse. On the other hand, at a certain point it the point-of-no-return and the seeds will germinate or die. Use as many as you can, and the rest try to quick-dry on a screen in the sun or something Best of luck.
