Lesson I learned: Dont (practically) ever give up on your seeds sprouting

  1. I have documented evidence that it actually took 16 days to sprout my 1 little test plant of Clockwork Black X Blue Dream.
     
    The official estimate is wait up to 2 weeks.  If I were you I would give them 3 due to my experience.

     
  2. I always wait but if it doesn't sprout after a week I start to lose hope. If you gently squeeze the seed and it's still hard it may still germ but if it just squishes in your hand its a dud. I've had seeds that wouldn't germ until I squeezed them until the shell cracked very slightly and they sprouted within a day
     
  3. Alot of these seeds die becaucse ppl fuck with them to see if there dead ;)
     
  4. Keep in mind, if it took two weeks to pop, it is NOT a strong seed.  The plant will usually grow slow and pathetic (in my experience).  I usually just toss the seed if it takes more than a week.  After that, even if it pops, it still isn't worth my time to have a slow, small plant in the GR and will just get tossed.  You don't want a midget in the room.  We strive for an even canopy and that plant will always be stunted and below the rest of them.
