Couch's outdoor germination mish mash, and out gassed saves

Well well, finally decided to play with these if they germinate.

In 2003 i got 2 5 packs of cultivators choice (Sam the skunk man) if old school Thai Haze X Skunk 1.

Seeds were stored under refrigeration for the last 6 years, but from 2003 to 2018, they were just in a aluminum pill fob in a drawer at room temperature.

Soaked them for 36-48 hours in solution of hydrogen peroxide and distilled water.

Planted in Botanicare “organicare True Earth” potting soil. These are going to be germinated outside, as we have a nice little heat Wave this week, figured some natural hot humid climate may help break Thier dormancy if they’re not dead.

There were never enough grow logs of this one! These thunks were some of my most sought after strains circa 2009. But there were never any great reports

Well I feel like a bit of a shit head because of this when I got them all the girl reports on icmag was calling these 18 to 20 week flowering plants so I never really cared about storing them properly I stuck them in a pill fob and stuck him in a lockbox under my bed.
In 2018 I put them in the fridge but they had a good decade plus stored improperly.
After the 48-hour soak I didn’t see any seed shell split so I don’t know I don’t have much hope for these let’s hope at least one of them goes.

But I know where there’s a stash of these fresh they have been stored since 1996 properly if these aren’t viable, I might get some more.

Hope you get a few to germinate. I have wondered how these will do and also have a pack stored away for “someday” in the fridge.

And i forget the 3rd and im a bit fuckin beside myself.

First I’ll say, chasing vpd, uts absolutely bullshit. Keep humidity 55-65 in veg with 72-80 degrees.

Vpd will be fine.

Second, LED, fuck those as well. Im going back to CMH.

All yhis new age fuckin science foolery, is more trouble than uts worth.

Floated for 18 years smooth selling after learning the ropes for two 20 years total on those general principles alone 50 to 60 watts per square foot give me the temperature within a certain range

Trying to chase these numbers in these fucking VPD figures and these God damn micromoles per canopy whatever the bullshit is retarded.

Ill be Damned if i relearn to grow at this point in my life because there’s a light that’s able to make 2.3 uml vs 1.8uml.

The one nl seedling I moved outside and wasbt even germinated when the indoor ones were developing first set of trues is better off sbd further along than the indoors that basically got a week+ on em

All my outdoor pops in bullshit cheap soil look great, toi bad its all hype strain bullshit

Here’s pics

Solo pic is “runt” nl5 seedling

Indoors is all curled, etoliated and pale.
