How to germinate weed seeds? 🌱

Planting weed seeds, sprouting weed seeds, and germinating weed seeds are essentially the same terms describing the germination process. To germinate weed seeds, follow these steps: First, it's recommended to use a Smart Start. This ensures optimal conditions. Alternatively you can place the weed seeds between moist paper towels, keep them in a dark, warm place, and check daily. Make sure not to use too much water to dampen the towels, as this can cause the seeds to rot.

Once the taproot emerges, transfer the seeds to soil with low nutrients, maintaining moisture without overwatering. Using a germination kit (Smart Start) simplifies this process, increasing your success rate. For best results, follow these steps and choose the right tools for your grow.

How to store cannabis seeds? 📦 

Cannabis seeds should be stored in a cool, dark, dry place. The best option is to store your cannabis seeds in glass containers as they are airtight and heat-resistant. Make sure to cover them up to protect your seeds from light. Adding a desiccant (such as silica gel packs) can help to maintain ideal humidity levels for your seeds. If stored correctly, cannabis seeds will last for several years. Depending on conditions, they can even last up to 5 years.

When to germinate cannabis seeds? ❓

If you are growing cannabis indoors, you can germinate your cannabis seeds at any point in the year. Outdoors, for most regions in the northern hemisphere, you should aim to germinate your seeds in April, so they are ready for the warm weather in May. We recommend germinating indoors. After about three weeks, your plants are strong enough to continue growing outdoors. Check out our Grow Calendar for more information on how to grow weed in the northern hemisphere.

How long does it take to germinate cannabis seeds? 🕒

The germination time depends on the environmental factors, your cannabis seeds and the selected germination method. In general, cannabis seeds will sprout between 1 to 5 days. After this, they'll enter the seedling stage.

What’s the difference between regular, feminized, and autoflowering cannabis seeds? 🌿

How to grow weed seeds? 🌿

Wondering how to grow weed seeds? Start by selecting high-quality seeds from any of the brands we offer. Begin by germinating the seeds using the Smart Start method. Ensure your growing medium is rich in nutrients, but only use nutrient-rich soil after the plants have developed for a few weeks. Seedlings can’t handle a lot of nutrients and may burn and die if given too much. Maintain proper lighting, ideally providing as many hours of sunlight as possible. If growing indoors, use LED grow lights and keep a consistent light schedule. Water the seeds appropriately, avoiding over-watering. Monitor the temperature and humidity levels to create an optimal environment. As the plants grow, provide the necessary nutrients and prune regularly. Follow these steps to successfully grow weed seeds into healthy, thriving plants.

What soil to use to germinate cannabis seeds? 👨🏻‍🌾

When germinating cannabis seeds, it's crucial to use the right type of soil to ensure successful growth. It's a common mistake to use soil that contains nutrients. Instead, weed seeds germinate best in germination soil with low to no nutrients. This type of soil promotes optimal root development and prevents nutrient burn, which can harm delicate seedlings. Using nutrient-free soil allows for better control over the plant's early growth stages, leading to healthier and more robust plants. For best results, choose sterile germination soil designed specifically for seed starting, ensuring your weed seeds have the perfect start.
