yes yes mjpassion.
i innoculate with mycorhizzae, so that helps to clear any excess nutes on the shell and overrun stuff. right?
Anyway this auto would be one of those bigger seeds. Does anybody weigh and measure and breed seeds? I don't think so..
i mean seed by seed.. not quantity. lol they ain't breeding by weight. ya know?
have you read what I said about bogglegum, what do you have to say about that?
uh huh...zactly.Well you are wrong about people not weighing seeds. Lots of places sell bulk seed by the pound or kilo.i dont know what you are worried about big seeds for everyone has already said seed size has nothing to do with anything important. Lots of growers spoke up, listen to their experiemce
Hi angelgoob. I pose a question for you..[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Would you be interested in an auto that finishes in 45 days but yields 20 grams?[/FONT]
i mean seed by seed.. not quantity. lol they ain't breeding by weight. ya know?
have you read what I said about bogglegum, what do you have to say about that?
plus, are you coming up with new ideas or something? You seem to not even know what my experience is with pumpkin seeds and bogbubble. hmm.
guess I am just a noob with 7 different techniques to attain a seed that matures in 45 days or less. 20% amber trichs.
List my seven methods first and then I will tell you what knowledge you hold.
I flatter you? You mean it's an ego boost? Good for you. I am not, that is not my intent, you so can take it back. I don't look up to people who look down on me for my ideas. Nor have you provided any facts I don't know.
What facts by the way. You have no experience with oversized seeds and seedlings obviously except for THEY VEG FASTER.
I've done more research about seeds in this week, than you have in your entire life. I know why seeds are big. There are a few reasons for this.
You on the other hand, might not know why a seed is big, why it has a thick shell, or why it's shaped the way it is.
Which is my intent, you just proved me right by saying that an indica with big seeds vegs faster.
so what you basically said is that you're an helpful troll? good job.
Yes very true and I have recently seen a perfect example of this.Seed size is dictated by the size of the bract it formed in.
Yes very true and I have recently seen a perfect example of this.
I did a double reverse of Cookies Kush and my old Jack Herer clone. The seeds which formed on the Cookies Kush were huge as it has large calyxes. The seeds produced by the Jack were small as it has small calyxes. The genetic potential of both seeds are the same.
The main advantage of a larger seed is a greater store of energy to get the seeding going initially. Everything pretty much evens out after a week or two though.
The cotyledons are the energy store. Inside the seed they form the two large halves of the the contents and the embryo is relatively small.Yes I can see an energy store advantage.
But most of the contents of a seed slough off the cotyledons. That white starchy material. It is not used in germination.
So the embryo itself seems of be of fairly consistent size and not necessarily proportional the the seed itself...food for thought.
