Here ya go @Knop


You want big heads guys. You want stipe cells (trichome stalks) of varying lengths so these large heads can overlap. You want a dense trichome field. And you want an epic cannabinoid profile. These are your 3 most valuable boxes to check off. Do not fall for these charlatans trying to pitch you on magical cannibinoid profiles that just don’t measure up to these other musts. This ain’t 1975 man.

better weed was coming from Florida than I ever saw some shit coming form cali. Place is still a prohibition state and all the garbage weed is grown elsewhere. When you’re dealing with prohibition, youre not going down for growing schwag

In the late 90s I seen a lot of very nice indoor from both Orlando and St. Petersburg. Also smoked some pretty good outdoor with some crazy fools in Tallahassee.

I appreciate this info. I have a pack of A5 Haze x Mirakel Thai seeds that I’ve been holding onto for 15 years. I love reading through these Sativa threads. I think I want to try to pop these seeds!

You should definitely get into those, asap.

I know, I’m doing some research on here for techniques on germinating old seeds. I don’t have experience germinating anything this old and unfortunately they weren’t stored properly but I have a friend who has experience with old beans and he gives me hope that they’re still viable.

Yeah, make sure you do it correctly. How many do you have?

There's a bit of a process, but not complicated really. First you need to clean them up with a dilute peroxide soak; you want .5% dilution into RO (so roughly 1:8, water to 3% drugstore peroxide), or distilled water. Soak for an hour.

Then they should go into a solution with 50ppm sugar solution with 100ppm GA3. Soak until they sink.

Then remove and germinate in sterilized media.

There were 10 in the pack, I tried to germinate 4 at one point but didn’t use any hormones or pre-cleaning. I’m trying to take it more seriously this time. Thankfully I still have 6 left.

I appreciate these tips. I’ve been researching some threads about it too.

The best method I have found for germinating old seed is a tablespoon of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide in a cup of distilled or RO water, and then let the seed soak in a dark spot for 48 hours before then placing them into a cotton chux towel.

I have tried a few different methods now including GA3 - Gibberellic-acid and the best results has been using the 3% Hydrogen Peroxide in a cup of distilled or RO water.

The last oldest seed I germinated were around 22 years old or older, and I saw between 30% to 40% germination rates.

Hey Hempy hope you are having a wonderful Christmas. Great to see you as always. I will be using the methods you mention to get my oldest seed going, if need be. In the meantime I have built a germination machine, the blueprint for which I got right here on ICM. It involves two chambers, one inside (moist sponges/seeds) and one outside (warm water/heater). Since both chambers are relatively sealed, it creates a pressure/warmth situation and so far the results have been stellar. I will post pics when I have it ready to go. Hope you are all safe and warm out there.

Getting them to crack is one thing …what about then getting them to actually develop ? and not just then turn to mush and rot in the husk?

 

[flower~power]

Old seeds (like 20 years old or more) some people say they get them to pop & grow like it was yesterday I’ve never been one of those people usually old seeds, crack and then just don’t really develop after that …

 

[Sub24ox7]

They stall out and just sit there. The thunk I germinated was so slow took forever to grow out of it. I’ve had a lot of old seed that would crack open and then just die.
Seems like tissue culture methods would get them to germinate.

How were those 22 year old seeds Stored all that time Hempy?

I germinating seeds I had frozen since 1991 in 2014 with I beleave a similar hydrogen peroxide solutions I got about 20 percent to grow its also important to be sterile . I still got some skunk#1 seed produce from seed originally from the seed bank in 1986 frozen since 1993 to try along with other stuff . Im scared to even look at them lol. I just got to do it
