The seeds have been in their rockwool cubes for just over 2 days now and overnight all 6 seeds have poked through and are at various stages of growth. Some are growing more vigorous than others with the OG breaking through the rockwool first. All 3 of these seedlings have shown different growth rates with 1being tall and the other 2 growing slower.

Cannabis Seed Growing – Part 5
Cannabis Seeds Rockwool Germination – Part 4
November 25, 2009

Now that all 6 seeds have sprouted and the white sprout is visible they are ready to be moved into their growing medium and humidity dome. The white rootlet grew quicker and longer on all 3 OG while the MK still had strong, healthy growth but those sprouts are a bit smaller and not as uniform.
The rockwool had been conditioned and soaked the previous day. They came with pre-drilled holes, but we had to use a skewer to make the holes wider and deeper for the roots to fit and so there wouldn’t be any root damage from bending.
Marijuana Seed Sprouting Paper Towel – Part 3
November 24, 2009

The medical marijuana seeds are still on top of the fridge and a small amount of distilled water was poured very gently over the paper towel to prevent it drying out. All 6 seeds have begun sprouting their tap rootlet and growth is looking healthy and vigorous.
Today we are taking a few hours to get the growing area, lighting and the growing medium ready for the next stage. The growing medium that we are starting with is rockwool blocks. The rockwool was soaked in a conditioning mix until it was completely saturated and then left in a clean container ready for tomorrow.
Sprouting Cannabis Seeds Root Tip – Part 2
November 16, 2009

24 hours later…all 6 seeds had either sprouted a tiny tap rootlet or were just breaking through the shell. At this point the 3 OG have had more of a vigorous start as the rootlets are more noticeable than the 3 MK but all 6 have started their germination beautifully and it’s on to the next step.
Now that they have been soaking for 24 hours, the seeds are ready to be placed in a moist paper towel to allow longer tap root growth. You want to keep your sheet of paper towel moist, and able to drain excess water. This was done by placing a regular food grater on a dinner plate and placing a distilled water mositened paper towel over the length of the grater. The grater allows for air flow underneath the seeds and gives excess water a way to drain away easily.

How to grow cannabis seeds germination is a key element to the beginning life of medical marijuana plant. Water, air and light are all that’s needed to begin cannabis seed growth.
After ordering a few feminized medical marijuana seeds and receiving the strains a couple weeks later, DNA Genetics OG Kush and TH Seeds MK were delivered. The company also threw in some bonuses of Dinafem seed strains White Widow, Blue Widow and Blue Hash. All the medical marijuana seeds received were hard, dark and healthy looking, so they should produce strong plants and bountiful harvests. Very pleased with the fast and discreet delivery!
