Bummer !!!!! Wish I had done that..... Back in Feb 2015 I lost Dwarf Low Flyer (short auto fem) 10 seeds germed but died as did the 5 seeds of Northern Lights (auto flower fem) but my Jack Herrer (auto flower fem) are now SUPER & I am grateful .... 15 seeds & $165 was a heck of a learning curve & next time I will know to speak up... Learning alot and need to learn Alot more.... On a mission right now to know / learn croping/topping on Auto Fems (when&how)...... Love Crop King Seeds FOR LIFE !!!!! ( if it were not for CKS I'd have no hope in dealing with my nerve damage (16 screws & 2 plates in my spine) & the slow painful loss of the use of both of my arms ).... Will Never stop trying to make my Medicine vs. taking the poison the Veterans Administration offers...... Thank You

finally .... one starting a tap root ... and possibly a second!! Not much from the 3rd one yet.
This time, on seeds #8, 9, & 10, I carefully filed the edge of the White Widow seed a little, used bottled water and have less wetness on my paper towels in this humid environment. Seems to be working. Hopefully all 3 will come thru this time!!

Wouldn't it make sense to try one at time Till you get it working?

well i have not grown pk specifically but i have/am growing crown royal which is a cross with blueberries and purple kush, and i am 6 for 6 on my crown royal seeds, i use a very wet paper towel soaked as a matter of fact, i use tap water my tap is ph7. I dont soak seeds although the guidelines to say to. dark warm location say 70 degrees in the soaked paper towel I will get tap in 2 days

Thanks Gooch, I get tap also but only 1mm of it then nothing! At what length of tap root do you plant your seed
G00ch
New Member
Well i am using a hydro system so i do not let the taproot get longer then a 1/4 inch, basically as soon as i see it popping into the medium she goes. The larger the tap root the better chance of having a problem damaging it

Thanks again Gooch I had been given the same instructions from my herbotonist but didn't want to void my CKS warranty but by the aound of it planting just after she taps is the way to go thanks

temps a little high i prefer in the 70's for germinating and seedling but to each their own

Well it seems you were getting to that stage with their techniques just not putting it into the medium, possibly waiting for longer tap root, but i prefer to pop them into medium once i see action
I can't germinate only one seed at a time cause I'm growing hydroponic in a 4 pot BC Northern Lights 4 pot Roommate. Expensive to do only one plant. I just put two of my barely cracked WW seeds into Rockwool and hope they take off!! Rosie is ready to turn on the oven!! If this doesn't work that'll be 10 WW Crop King seeds that didn't germinate and I'll have to try another strain. Gotta get this harvest going! Wasted over 3 weeks trying to germinate these seeds. Getting frustrated!!

Sounds like you are on your way to success are you using a dwc, rdwc? are you doing a journal? if so add it to your signature so People can follow
BCNL manual says warm dark location 80-90 degrees F. With AC I've gotten down to 77F. I'm trying everything!

o i see now i read bc north lights i thought that was a strain you were growing not the brand of "box" you were using. which box did you get? dwc means deep water culture r=recycled nutes,

looks pretty cool mind if i ask about how much it was, I am using tents with an ebb and flow system which takes water from a reservoir and pumps it to a controller box and gravity fill buckets and then cycles off and empties bucket and sends it back to the rez till the next flood
Wow! Sorry about that G00ch!! I close her door, push a button and she's good for a week!! I broke a lote of piggy banks to get her but I've spent a fortune over the years buying herbs. Rosie is an investment. $3K+ a little
