This stuff, Kenaf, looks rather like MJ in the veg. state. It is widely grown commercially, used to make paper.
I once read a news article about cops who burnt a farmerīs whole crop of this stuff and had to pay him compensation. It would be a hoot to grow a field of it, the seeds are real cheap, and tip off the cops someone has a huge crop of MJ. Now the next year........

keep on keeping on....
SpilledCanvas9 - dont worry about it lil buddy, just stay determined and you'll get to where you want to be. Pay no attention to the remarks made by jordan87, as all of us are not born with the extensive knowledge it takes to cultivate said plant. If jordan87 had a brain in his head or a soul in his body, he would probably encourage your efforts with creative criticism as opposed to the useless rhetoric he/she laid down.
All that aside, lets get to the good/productive stuff. 1) Bagseeds - Seed color - only darker colored seeds, usually striped or speckeld are the only viable ones in your stash. throw out lighty/green colored/cracked seeds. Good seeds germination rates remain around 90% for the first 4-5 yrs of their life. Every year after the 5th, the seeds germination rate declines by about 10%. Good seeds generally take between 1-3 days to sprout. Older seeds may take over a week to germinate (again, sprout) 2) Methods of Germination - u want to either put seeds in a dish with water, and just let them sit there, OR, wrap seeds in paper towel, soak, and allow excess water to drain off, replenish water regularly to keep cloth good and moist, OR, fill cup with soil, put small hole about half an inch in the soil, drop seed in, and water, few days later, ull notice the little cotyledons (pre leaves) pop out, to be followed by the first true jagged leaves we so covet. The last mentioned method (in soil) is my prefered method as you dont have to move the sprout into another container when it shoots, thus relieving stress and human error. |

i'm not a big time stoner, i'm not a rich kid, i know what pot seeds look like, i'm sorry if i appear to be a 'space cadet' but i checked today and yes, it is a pot plant, i was wrong when i said the stem was 1 cm thick, its alot less than that, and i would like to thank KemHaze for the helpful advice, as thats what i was looking for.
