i did a brief google search and got some mixed results, thought id ask here for actual RL experience.
I have a pack of seeds i ordered from ILGM (WW auto). I purchased them in late 2016, but have been stored in my night stand drawer, which is always closed, in a temp controlled environment, and only removed to admire them from time to time. What are the odds they are still good togo.
sure icould find out for myself and try and germinate them, but i still need time to work out some details before beginning, a heads up would be nice
Hi there… i am also new on the forum and growing, but what i can testify to is that i have seeds in old medicine bottles, in a drawer that are 5 years + old and they still go like a
Never ordered seeds through the post, so i dont know if there will be a difference in the seeds… good quality seeds stay/are good quality seeds…
Just my thoughts…
Go well nê…
I know for me I have three year old seeds I bought a mix pack refrigerate all the time. I always use a little hydro peroxide when I throw them in water before soil. They sprouted like it was just yesterday I bought them.
Also it doesn’t hurt to see if they’re going to work. I would have everything ready throw them in some 2.5 cups of water 1 teaspoon of
hydroperoxide soften shell gives it a punch.
I have a buttload of seats in a small container from weed I grow or buds I break up from somewhere. The only reason why I don’t try those seeds is male and female. I don’t want to contaminate an area of male love
Storage conditions will make or break the viability in the long term. Under the best of circumstances they can last for many years. Seeds from several other plants have been sprouted after hundreds and a few after more than a thousand years. Those obviously were not refrigerated so its possible cannabis under the right conditions could be stored a long time.
I would definitely give them a try. I store my seeds in a frigerator and had no problem Germinating seeds 5 to 6 years old. Keep us posted let us know If they germinate. Good luck
Yeah if you store them properly, they can last indefinitely. A buddy of mine has some Ol Skool Skunk seeds from like 1986. They still pop when he germs them.
yeah 8 years just flew by, its nice going back into my posts so i could kinda see what was going on back then., found my timer, need to figure out how im gonna hang my led panels etc
i just ordered the soil today, 36$ for 2 cubit feet of FF HF
That looks like a knockoff on the apera pc60. Whoever does buy this or use this let me know how it is. I would love to have a backup reliable knock off unit. I bet this unit is almost as good as the unit I’m using and for the price it is guaranteed to be worth.
@Edward7983 , “your seeds” I would say that they would be good to go,u have taken care of them, u never know how long seeds have been stored when u purchase from a seed bank ?
So grow on MAN ! Hey in this Cannabis growing endeavor, you will always be taking a chance,
