did this all today .. left the baggy there for 1 hour 30mins
i just put all my seeds on the wet towel then covered it up and filled up the baggy with air then i put it in the back of my comp .. ( it gets super hot back there ) .. when i got home the baggy was pretty warm .. so should i just leave it there or put the baggy in my closet? and the seeds i got were kinda black and look burnt or something im not sure and some of them were cracked .. would it still germinate? or im just wasting my time? thanks for reading :)

super hot doesnt sound good to me

how warm is warm? kinda sounds like the closet might be better than super hot ;)
and the seeds i got were kinda black and look burnt or something im not sure and some of them were cracked
I'm pretty sure seeds shouldnt look burned and or crack :eek:
any way to get a close up shot of the seeds?

Hey SoFaded,
The seeds will go darker as they absorb moisture, and then they should crack open along the edge where the taproot will grow from.
If it gets hot behind your PC then move it into a dark cupboard, you don't want to cook em, just keep em warm ;)
Hope that helps ya bro,
peace,

oh they look good...... go for the closet and check in 24 hours ;)
when the tails are like 1/4 - 1/2 inch long plant them under 1/4-1/2 soil in a at least a 12 oz cup with drainage
grow on young grass hopper :p

move those seed apart a bit if you can ...then your tap roots aren't going to get tangled together ;)

i would use the bowl to germ then plant in the cup
12 oz cup is a great size to start them out in :D
1 seed per cup will be plenty

yes carbonated water will give some CO2 But you would have to spray them alot for it to do any good..:2cents:

Hey SoFaded,
As far as I am concerned he gives false info in that Vid "I Grow Chronic"
The green guy tells everyone that he sprays his plants with carbonated water for that extra kick of c02. From what I can remember, the film shows him spraying his buds with the stuff too, that's a good recipie for budrot if you ask me. I wouldn't foliar spray any cannabis plant that is further than two weeks into the flowering cycle, the extra moisture will almost certainly cause you more trouble in the long run. ;)
As long as you have adequate ventilation in your room then supplimenting c02 is not needed, there is more than enough c02 available to your plants in the air all around us. Now if you have a sealed room to grow in then c02 is a must have, and that's the only time it's need in my opinion. :cool:
Good luck bro,
peace,
