So, you've ordered cannabis seeds.
If you're experienced you will know exactly what to do, you may have learned it the hard way but that's always the best way !
Don't have any experience? feeling a bit insecure about it ?
Don't worry, there are several ways to get your cannabis seeds to germinate in a proper manner.
Personally i prefer a damp tissue to germinate the cannabis seed.
Just put it on a damp tissue, cover it loosely with another damp tissue and leave it in a dark spot. After only one day a little white root can be visible !
To prevent the first root to grow together within the tissue it is important to regularly check up on it. It's quite risky to separate the tissue and root, the root can break and that's not what you want !
After germination it is adviced to plant it in good soil, that way the roots get enough space to grow strong and healthy.
Another method is the water bowl.
Take a glass, cup or bowl and fill it halfway with water .
Put your cannabis seeds in the water, combined with a proper temperature of about 20 degrees you normally will see the results after a few days, the appearance of
the first root.
Once visible you can remove the cannabis seeds out of the water and put them in soil to grow further.
Don't want the trouble of trays with water or tissues ? Then you can also simply put the cannabis seeds in soil, for about 1 cm deep.
Rapid germination is not guaranteed but is so exciting to see how long it takes and if they even germinate !
Always nice to see that finally something is growing!
In the Nethetlands It used to be normal to buy your cuttings in a special shop, just to avoid the whole germination process, but for several years it is prohibited by law. And let's face it, germination like the above is so much more exciting, don't you think ?
