The best way to germinate cannabis seeds?
weed seeds germination: You have bought some wonderful cannabis seeds, now you need to get started and make these seeds germinate. There are several options for this where the emphasis is always on humidity. Light plays no role in the process at this point. Only when the leaves on the cannabis plant grow will light be absorbed by the plants. For germination it does not matter whether it is dark or light. These are the three main methods of germinating cannabis seeds
Germinating cannabis seeds in water
Germinating cannabis seeds on moist soil
Germinating cannabis seeds in the ground
Germinating cannabis seeds in a coffee filter (recommended)
Germinating cannabis seeds in water
For proper germination, you will need a temperature of at least twenty degrees. Start by filling a cup with water and place the seeds in the water. After a period of two to four days you will see the seeds open and the root emerge. You can plant these germinated cannabis seeds directly into the soil at a depth of half to one centimetre. The root should be facing downwards. The stem you see coming out of the seed is not yet the plant, this is the root. When planting, it is better to point this root downwards so that the plant can find its way down better. If you do not do this, the plant will grow, but the result may not be optimal.
Germinating cannabis seeds on moist soil
The most common way to germinate on moist soil is to use kitchen paper, toilet paper or cotton wool. Take a dish or bowl and place your preferred soil in it. Make this wet but not soaked. The moisture can evaporate fairly quickly due to the ambient temperature, so it is important that the cannabis seeds are damp enough to germinate. You can put an extra layer of moist paper on top of the damp paper with the seeds, with an inverted saucer on top to prevent evaporation.
Germinating cannabis seeds in the ground
A plant always grows upwards, no matter what angle you plant the seed. Yet you increase the chance of a successful germination by planting the seeds in the ground in the right way. Although the time it takes for a cannabis seed to germinate will vary from species to species, you can keep to a maximum of ten days. Leave the seeds alone, the acids on your hands can slow down the process. The temperature is also important, it should be at least twenty degrees.
When the seed has germinated, you can plant it in a pot. Cover this pot with transparent plastic to create a sort of greenhouse with a high degree of humidity. This way you give the weed plant a good chance to grow into a beautiful adult plant with lots of weed.
