Sure, @JohnnyPotseed did a writeup on his method here:
Germinating some seeds - How I do it - Overgrow.com
Super simple… But it works like a charm!

Well, here we are at the 1 month anniversary of my grow journal. In the past month I moved into my new / old grow space, moved my outside plants to get more sun, and even pulled one outside. The inside autos are very close, I keep saying just one more day or two. LOL. They just wanna defy me I guess by getting fatter. Thats ok by me 
So. Today’s update… @JohnnyPotseed seed starting method works a little too well. LOL It almost makes it as addicting to plant them now as it is to harvest em 
Never again will I do the soak / paper towel in a bag method!
Looks like my most purple Black Cream wants to start developing some foxtails… Never had that in the past, kinda neat looking…
The purple ladies have about a month to go.
And then we have this abomination. Decided to stretch and be very airy, where the others are all nice short and dense. She’s been abused for being too tall for sure. Can’t wait till she’s done. Its one of the unknowns from PSB.
Compared the one above to this, its double the height, and half the weight I am guessing… Germed same time. Gotta love grab bag scam seed companies… Live and learn I guess! At least they WERE feminized! So its not a total loss… Just no clue what I have LOL
Almost there. I keep wanting to pull the first 4, but amber is SO slow to develop… Maybe another few days…

I dub thee…
Ya know you like growing things when you put together a 2x2 tent for the exclusive purpose of producing seeds. LOL
Light (MarsHydro 600) will be here tonight.

What seeds do you have planned to christen “The Love Shack”?
I have 5 Black Cream fem autos going already, one will be a candidate for eliteXelite reversal…
Plus I plan on crossing that pollen with Dark Devil from sweet seeds. Got two of those little ladies sprouting now. Also have a Northern Lights Auto from sweet seeds (was a freebie), and a Jack Herer X Blueberry auto from @Rabeats2093 that I plan to share some pollen on. Finally, @corey sent me some regular autos, so I’d love to find a male for some true male auto pollen.
So much, sounds like an orgy at the love shack! LOL. But I will keep the black creams w/ their male in the 2x2. The other autos that I toss some pollen on will be in one of the other tents.
Eventually, this will become “The Man Cave” lol, or “The Love Shack” depending on whats going on here LOL
Oh I am having just way too much fun with this!

Time for a little update I think!
These three little ladies are my golden children at the moment. Grandaddy Purple and Purple Haze from ILGM, and a White Widow from Seedsman. Short and stocky, dark green, I just love how they are doing… (There’s also a small Blue Cookies in the front there that came from the server raffle)
This is the results of using @JohnnyPotseed 's seed sprouting method, about a week later… Progressing nicely! There’s 2 each of:
UFS #18, Tropicana Poison F2, Lucky Charms, Spirit Train F2, BC Pinewarp from the server raffle, and a pair of Jack Herer Blueberry autos from @Rabeats2093. There’s also 4 Black Cream autos in there and 2 Dark Devil autos that might be duds (done with my old seed starting method of soak and moist towels in a baggie). Gonna pop two more in the JPS2000 seed starter tray.
The little clone station is slowly being dialed in. I had to break down and use some new airstones, my older ones were clogging overnight, resulting in a few dry cuttings. Thank god this is just the dial in stage. Still, have some roots on the Alaskan Purple cuttings I have in there 
A little frosting on my Blackberry Auto…
I swear I am gonna pull this one, one of these days. I keep saying “today is the day” and she keeps proving me wrong…
Parting shot? I just love how chunky the stem is on this unknown auto (photo above)
Well, thats all for today folks!

@Rabeats2093 You been spying on me? I literally took this pic maybe 20 mins ago for an update this afternoon…
How many of you have had VARIEGATED leaves?!? I did a search and saw a few posts, but its not really common. This is on one of the Blueberry Jack Herer Autos that @Rabeats2093 sent me. I popped two seeds, the other is green and healthy like usual… I’ve read it goes away after the first few sets of leaves, but I was waiting to see the first true leaves colors before I posted… I definitely am interested in playing with the variegated gene and will pollenate with the as-of-yet to be reversed black cream… Purple variegated would be cool to see!
More pics to follow, out and about at the moment…

Ok, the weekly update (a bit late) but lates better than never!
Finally chopped unknown autos 1, 2, 3, & 4. Number 4 was the abomination (and the tall lanky one on the right hanging). Buds aren’t really dense, and more like tons of bowl packs, the other three were nice and dense. Anxiously waiting to jar them and get a weight from the 4 plants… #4 also has minimal trichomes, and what few it has were going amber. Certainly not a candidate for future, curious how it smokes, and if I knew what it was I wouldn’t want to grow it. Its wierd, but since they are unknown, I aint worrying anyway.
Potted up some sprouts from the server raffle, there’s a pair of BC Pinewarp, Lucky Charms and Uncle Fester Skunks, Lucky Charms and a pair of Spirit Train F2’s. Rounding out the pic is a black cream auto and the variegated blueberry jack herer from @Rabeats2093 . Got a few more black creams to be potted up tomorrow, and I definitely wanna pollinate the variegated BBJH with some black cream. Purple variegated would be cool, and hey, its for fun, why the heck not?
Planted up a few of the Alaskan Purple clones, and they are coloring back up now that they are developing roots…
And still got a couple weeks to go on the purple ladies, aka the black cream autos and the blackberry autos from seedsman… Slowly but surely. These have certainly been subject to some nute abuse as I figured out FF nutes with my soil mix, as well as my soil mix needed more perlite anyway, but they are fat, dense, sticky and stinky, and I can’t wait to taste em. I think the next black creams will have much better color foliage as I dial in the nutes better… I can see how the leaves just wanna go purple…
Thats it for this week…
Same pot- time / same pot channel next week!

Don’t you worry, she’s got a special seat in the house right now. I have only a few “golden children” that get extra attention, and that plant certainly became one with her foliage…
I hope it stays thru the other sets of leaves. Still reading up on it wherever I can find info. Its really cool to me and I feel since I’ve been blessed with it I should do something, and not just run her for bud. Ok, so it’s not breeding for terpenes, or really anything usable, other than looks, but if the blueberry jack herer genetics are good, and my black cream genetics are good, the end result cant be all bad considering the lineage…
Yeah, that plant is a special little plant to me for sure…
