I disagree. These were the last two out of 10 that even got a tiny tail root while in the paper towel. It was a bad batch of seeds, plain & simple. Only 10 in my years of growing that didn't take off.

I agree, I bought 2 packs from a local head shop and only 2 popped out of 10. Same with me, 10 yrs of growing and I have never had such a poor germination rate. I tried their method (5 seeds) no luck, my method (5 seeds) only 2 popped and talk about slow to grow. Seeds that do that from my experience are old. Probably sitting on the shelf for a couple of years.

I place my seeds in thick paper towel near the top and fold the paper over the seeds. I then dampen the entire paper towel and wrap it along the side of a large mixer cup (like a sports cup or travel mug) making sure I can feel all the seeds near the top. I place a bit of water in the bottom of the cup just touching the paper towel to keep moisture up. I place it in a dark warm place where about twice a day... I will run the water from the bottom of the cup up over the seeds to keep them nice and damp. I grow the taproot until it is around an inch long before trans-planting for good survival rates.

Besides 1 batch of seeds turning to mush... I've have wicked results doing it this way.

Maybe check temp where ur germinating if too cool they will try hard but turn to mush from h2o

I agree with this. They pop much faster and stronger if the temp is good and warm.

Quick question for the King (or anyone else who might know ...) - I have some CKS Auto Fem Northern Lights, and germinated 3 using the prescribed paper towel method. 2 of the 3 popped and are in soil now, but the third just popped with no visible tap root. Is this one a dud, or should I hang in there? Thanks!

Did you transfer them all to the paper towel? Some seeds take time to show their taproots.

Yes - all were germinated on a paper towel, as described on the CKS website. The one in the picture above is still on the paper towel. Just checked on progress - looks about the same today as the pic - shell is cracked open, but no apparent tap root activity. I guess I'll just continue to keep that paper towel moist.
