Aww shucks.
Mostly @Jon - your suggestion
Its your fault
So the SIP is nearly built and the seeds are in a bag. Title is self explanatory but build and strain deets to follow. This is a 120L SIP built out of a trash can that I’m going to veg on one balcony and flip by moving her to another balcony on another side of the house. Slow burner journal. I’m hoping to harvest in around January. Fingers crossed. Pests, plagues and floods ahead on the tropical sland of Phuket, Thailand.
Here’s how I pop seeds. I was talking to @locoforcoco earlier who like me in the very recent past is stressing about popping seeds. I use basically the same process that Simon of Serious uses. Having structure to it fixed it for me. I’ll see if I can find the photo's I took of their instructions. This is almost exactly what they recommend though.
Putting it post #1 so I have a handy reference!
Here is a picture of 4 @Sweet Seeds Tommy Red Hit Cookies. 60-% chance of a red pheno. Looks sweet!
I put them to soak for one hour in a light H2o2 water. I take straight from our swimming pool as its an ozone pool - basically injects the Hydrogen peroxide into the water. It gives a couple of percent total H2o2. One hour only. The water btw is always 6.9. I fonmr why they test it to that but they do. Well at least thats what my Blue Lab Ph pen reads. They use droppers and paper
I did a remote grow in the UK and we bought some low H2o2 solution and mixed with water - I think diluted too much as they were quite slow. We never keep seeds in the fridge. Love the humidity on them.
I take a two piece strip of kitchen roll and drop some of the same water over the towel and pop the seeds in.
I fold it up like a 5 year old wrapping Christmas presents. Adding a little, little bit of the soaking water which helps seal the package. I’m dropping 0.5ml of water at a time here. Very carefully, hence syringe.
Pop it in the bag. That’s a bit fiddly sometimes.
All bagged and zipped up with my cardboard light protectors.
I clothes peg the cardboard over and hang it in a darkish corner of the hallway/living area edges.
Once or twice a day walking past Inwill lift the bottom of the bag to the vertical and let it swing back down. The water that collects at the bottom of the bag refreshes the paper at it swings up. Neat.
That’s Stage #1 - Stage #2 will follow in 36-48 hours.
Next up the SIP build. Nearly finished. Later I’ll explain my methodology for mixing soil (Never grown in soil before so need to invent that)
