Germination process

[sulo]

Ok i am a real newbie when it comes to growing cannabis or indeed growing anything for that matter. I found some seeds in my cupboard presumably left over from my sisters previous attempts in growing (last summer and summer before) so reasonably old. I was unsure if they would work so decided to try anyway.

 

I put them into a glass half full of water and let them float around. Its now up to day three and only one has sprouted. There were two small seeds and one bigger seed, only the bigger one has cracked. How long does it usually take for them to start to crack? Are the other two not going to sprout at all if they havnt cracked by now (3days)?

give them another day just incase, but it sounds like theyre not gonna do anything.

just focus on the one that did crack and hope to god thats its female

 

also there are guides around for this kind of thing, best to do a search before posting a new topic.

Thanks man yeah i read the gemination process guide and the guys had cracked by 3 days and were ready by 7 and my other mate said it took his like five days to crack (not sure how reliable he is) so just thought id ask and see what the general concensus was.

 

If it turns out to be a male is it basically useless? We grew a plant about two summers back (my sisters only successful one) and it came out as a female lukily.
