  1. @Bakstein420 Thanks so much for bringing this to our attention That makes us happy. We will do whatever we can to make this work. I have just been chatting to Stu and we will be running dual tests next week using your method. Different outdoor growing environments, random 20 seeds from the mix, and will report back on the success rate. I suspect there are a host of reasons why your success rate was so low, and hopefully we can work out what went wrong. Besides my tests, Stu has had a 100% germination rate on his tests - sadly no pics. The main reason why we do it the way we do, is too many variables and potential issues relating to the transplant. For germination we have had great success using just coco coir as the medium or Freedom Farms Classic soil. Our most recent tests (images in previous comment) use Just Cannabis mix and we are very happy with the results. Germination in coco coir without any nutrients (not hot) actually works a treat. The seeds seem to have enough nutrients to keep it going for the first couple of weeks. After the first week we pot the seedling and coir pot into the richer mix, their final destination which in our case are mostly black 20 litre plastic bags. The roots shoot through the coir pots in no time. We really do appreciate feedback, so thanks! iRiE Bob
  2. Hey Candyman, sorry to see you are having problems with our seeds. We will definitely replace your beans or give you a refund. I'll DM you next. This is the first we have heard of germination issues this season and we appreciate any feedback we get. We have run germination tests recently on Gardeners Delight and had 28/30 pop successfully and are now healthy plants growing at a rapid rate. I have forwarded your post to Stu (our genetics dude) and will update you as soon as I have his feedback as to what could have gone wrong. Our seeds are from the 2019/20 grow season, harvested in March this year. For reference, the attached images below show our latest test grow. The seeds were planted 0.5-1cm below soil and germinated directly in the coir pots, without a pre-soak as the pots sitting in water keep them moist enough. First signs of them popping was after 4 days. We prefer this method as we don't have to worry about damage during transplant and the tap root gets a chance to properly take hold. We then put the coir pot and seedling directly in the soil. This method has worked a treat. I will be running tests next week using the method you used. Sorry for any inconvenience and disappointment, hopefully we can make up for it. iRiE Bob
  3. Don't be in a rush to harvest, the brown pistils could be a sign of stress from the wind and heat. Those heads still have a lot of fattening to do!
  4. Interesting, that Diesoline is showing similar pheno to one in our test grow. Glad the transplant worked out OK!
  5. Ooooh, so exciting to see our strains out in the wild!! We will definitely be following your diary. Interesting with the mulch over the top, let's see if their hardiness prevails. C'mon little darlings, make us proud!
  6. Thanks 420sa, thanks for having us! Do we reach out to you for more info on vendors?
  7. Thanks! and yes we would love to sign up as a vendor..... is there a more info and a link to do so? I did have a look but didn't come across anything.
  8. Thanks Dank, been reading through some posts and yes, the community looks awesome! Lots of knowledge here. Rolling one as we speak
  9. Hi 420SA, We are a new local seed bank, with a few groovy cultivars on offer. We look forward to being part of this community and growing together. iRiE TO THE iRiE!
