seeds Germination or bust.

[The_NorthEast_ChileMan]

​To all. It appears that that prior to this thread the previously unattainable has happened.WOW
 
several days ago I placed about 6-8 jap seeds on a paper towel to soak in the hope of germination. Done this many times in the past with no success however this time I did not fold the paper in half instead just laying them on the damp surface and closing the bag up leaving them under my red/blue grow light to soak @ 82 F.
 
Just checked them a few minutes ago and,..................................... 100% germination !!!!!
 
Unfortunately I didn't take notes so no idea if the solution was plain H2O or a mix of saltpeter /H20.
 
Will try again.
 
I'd like to think this thread scared the seeds into submission. HAHAHA
 
 
Thanks for your input.

Last year I tried to germinate seeds and failed miserably. This year I have had huge success using the following:
 
1020 tray with dome: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MT589FS
heat mat: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015PD8I7I
temp controller: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HXM5UAC
rockwool cubes: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CJICFKY or https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00168EO48
LED light: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Feit-Electric-2-ft-2-Light-19-Watt-White-Full-Spectrum-LED-Non-Dimmable-Indoor-Linkable-Plant-Grow-Light-Fixture-Daylight-GLP24FS-19W-LED/302049784
 
I just soaked the cubes in water then put them in the tray, one seed per cube, put the tray on the heat mat and set the controller to 87F and tucked the temp probe beside one of the rockwool cubes. Cover and left it to brew. Practically every seed I purchased this year sprouted. I had a few seeds from last year which didn't all sprout though.
 
This is round 2, started last weekend:

I like that he said he planted JAP seeds. I imagine the plants will produce anime DVDs.
