Maybe Bad Seeds

The eight SLH seeds I started in the Cannakan system never popped. The germinated seeds shown in the Cannakan were new LSD Auto seeds from ILGM. Now the question is: Why did I get a bunch of bad seeds from good suppliers or was my storage bad. My guess is there was something wrong with the way the seeds were stored or they were damaged in shipment.  

Cannakan

 I've had a hard time with starting this year's grow. Seeds not germinating and when they do "pop" after transferring to seeding plugs they either do not grow or die. I'm not sure where the problem is but as usual; if there is a problem my answer is to throw money at it. Luckily the germination problem fix, "Cannakan" doesn't cost much. 

   It works like the "paper towel" method but takes the need to monitor wetness away. Fill the "can" with water to the top line, put the seeds in the green insert and soak for 18 to 24 hours. Throw the soak water away, refill water to the second line, replace the green insert with the seeds and put the lid back on. Once the seeds have a 1/4 to a 1/2 inch root transfer to seeding plugs.

Four of the seeds are ready to transfer to plugs after overnight in the can:

Click 'em to big 'em.

I should have four seedlings for the big tent in a week or so. If more than four make it to planting the extras will go in 5 gal bags for an outdoor soil grow.

Having a Hell of a Time Getting Started

 I'm not sure where the problem is but whatever it is it is keeping this season's grow from starting. Seeds sprout, placed in "grow plugs" to become seedlings and it doesn't happen. Again I'm not sure where the problem is, nothing different this year from previous years other than everything either dies or doesn't progress. 

Just placed 8 SLH seeds in a new to me "Cannakan" system seed germination canister and will give it another go. This time with different seedling plugs. If this doesn't work I''ll buy some clones just to have a 2024-2025 crop.
