Better luck to ya than I had! The Skunkman gear from the bay was 100% poppage from soaking. Tap water, peroxide, and aloe not enough sometimes.

Thanks man
but Idont have high hopes now after reading your post, lol
I cant see why my chances would be any different with one pack vs your three packs .. If mine do germ at a high rate, the first thing I'll be sceptical of is if I've even been sent the old sssdh beans or if I was sent something else, lol 
I'd actually rather have zero germinate that were truly sssdh, than to use a full harvest cycle on something that all germs only to find out that its not SSSDH at all, and worse still is boof, lol
I got 30 beans in one pack. I wish some had popped, but it is what it is. Fuch a snitch anyways.

TychoMonolyth hi 
Can you tell us about the stretch from the batch you started?
@everyone, any testers already done the deed?

Only sent out testers to one person. Returned both times. Sending it out again a different way. Border is tough.

Ouch
wish I could help but have no experience shipping such a product across borders. Could you get away with clever wording?
what about the stretch? I'd expect some.. just want to know if it's full on GA stretch or if it's somewhat tamed by the other ingredients

The goal was to mitigate stretch without putting them into dormancy or outright killing them. The need for blue wavelength to help with the stretch is still important thought.
I just think I need to be more verbose with the ingredients. That's what I am told.

I mean - a lengthy explanation of each ingredient isn't necessary..
I understand this is a balancing act between each ingredient and interaction between them can be hard to predict accurately.. I'm just wondering about stretch..
Youre paving a brand new road, I figured you'd be the top guy to ask, nothing else in my inquiry
Don't make me read between the lines lol my mind is quick to vagabond and I'll start thinking you scrog'd your 3' seedlings
Anyway I'll still grab a bottle, thank you

We germinated some decades old ak47 seeds from serious. Using bottled spring water and this great big neodymium fishing magnet placed about 2 inches above the seeds which were placed on a bed of cotton wall in a plastic Tupperware container with a lid on, placed on a small heating Matt with this great big magnet sat on the Tupperware lid. 9 out of 11 germed within 48 hours.

That's what I charge on the site for the EU to keep sales away until I figure out the shipping requirements re safety sheets and such. If you don't get the product, you get a refund. Simple really. But why do all that work, and there's lots, if at the end of the day, it can't be successfully shipped.

GA3 and 4 are involved and a test I did with a high concentration on good seed had them stretch 8 inches for the first set of leaves. Lol. Stubborn seeds under a good light was only a few inches (3-4).
Stretch is also a matter of photosynthesis. Plant a seed with corn, and it'll race the corn for the sun to 12feet. I've done this often. To combat the stretch, you need Blue wavelengths. T5s are perfect for that.

Comfortably numb!
What was your concentration good buddy of G3 good buddy? As from what I have learned been told on the subject is... be careful how you use it because of what you stated and that behaviour 8" stretch, can cause a heart attack for the lack of a better metaphor, to that seedling.
ETA: Never mind I re-read your opening sentence.

A lot has been written about magnetic field effects on seed. I have a paper on it. When I get home in a couple days, I'll post it. All positive results.

You can kill the if the concentration is too high. Read the first page in this threat. It explains a lot.

Ok. I found the PDF online. Here it is.
