Things you Need Before you Get Started

1. a glass

2. 1 plate

3. paper towel

5. distilled water or rain water

6. pill bottle

Steps to Do

– Make sure that you are germinating them in a room temperature. (18 – 25 .degrees Celsius)

– Drop the seeds into a cup of distilled water for 14 – 18 hours. They may or may not sink to the
  bottom. That’s normal. Come back after a few hours and sink the ones floating to the bottom by
  using your finger tips.

– The process is complete when you see the shell crack and a tiny root will appear.

– Fold a thick paper towel which is free from any perfume and dye and position it on top of the plate.

– Pour the content of the cup of water into the paper towel set up. Make sure that you give enough
  space between the seeds to prevent the taproots from tangling. Do not use your hands when
  handling the seeds as they are sensitive. Use tweezers.

– Leave it in a closed dark area. Let it sit until they open. Do not forget to check it every 5 to 12 hours
  and make sure to keep the layers moistened with a water spray.

– Keep it from direct sunlight, warm appliance or source of heat so that your seeds can take in more
  water.

– Once you see new taproot and is about 1/4 to 1/2 inch, the germination is complete. Transfer them
  into soil or rockwool cubes. Make sure the taproot is facing down. Use tweezers in transferring
  them.

NOTES:

Most of the seeds will germinate within 1 to 2 days but others may take up to 7 days. It varies according on the strain that you are germinating. Do not give up if you don’t see them germinate right away. When they don’t germinate, it is likely because they lack moisture.
