Lol I throw my seeds in a damp paper towel check em a few days later and usually plant 95%. If I’ve gotta add nutes and peroxide and aloe I don’t want that plant growing. Weakness, lol

That salycytic Acid is a Wonderful thing my friend.I started putting skinned chunks in my clone water when i soak my cuttings for 24 hours chunks and a tiny like match sized pile of down to earth kelp meal holy bajeezus is that stuff hot in tap water then one more day just plan water them i dip in clonex and in some sunshine mix and back on 77 degrees.That aloe makes so many beautiful roots.The Seed thing with that aloe is a idea I will try on my next seed drop thanks for the knowledge.

Another thing too that aloe looks like a damn good moist media for those beans.I wonder if I could just stick cuttings to the second node right in a hunk of aloe ?Now I think about it they would have more than enough water to keep that cut alive and suck up that salycytic acid from that aloe chunk.Would this make sense?

It is common practice to use pure aloe or chunk for cuts.
Aloe vera contains 75 potentially active constituents: vitamins, enzymes, minerals, sugars, lignin, saponins, salicylic acids and amino acids. Vitamins: It contains vitamins A (beta-carotene), C and E, which are antioxidants. It also contains vitamin B12, folic acid, and choline.

At the Mexican market they sell these things called fronds that are huge hunks of aloe.I wonder if you could soak one in water overnight slice the spines off and use that to do a bunch of cuts at once.You get them and they can be like two foot long 4 inch wide.

I made a bucket cloner and to be honest the dirt and aloe heat mat Method pulls me more rooted clones than the bucket cloner.I don’t think I like them.

Yucca is even better if you can get it.
With either one though, you have to remove the edges and let the “Latex” run out of the skin, but leave the skin on.

Yeah just heard about that aloe… it really does work for seeds that refuse to pop… I had 1 I tried germinating… wouldn’t do shit… and stuck in aloe leaf after 4 days of nothing in napkin… 1 day later bam… cracked open showed its tail!!! Good stuff!! Also the peroxide… super good stuff… I hear just a peroxide bath before germination is great as well…

After a night of thier bath of peroxide and water into the napkin you go.These probably won’t be in too long I already see 5 or 6 tails popping this should be interesting.Less than 16 hours not bad @SkunkHunt101 you have fiesty beans

The seeds went to full maturity in the flower. Yes they all sprout fast. These plants favor the Hoodoo side with tight internodes tiny small leaves and a very rank smell in veg. The flowers are dank as well and out of 15 or so strains I made seeds with last year this was my favorite bud. It has a very chemical berry smell at the end with some serious skunk as well. The Nature Farm Skunk crosses well with Dominion Skunk. I have no more of these seeds left. Only enough to do a seed increase myself. I gave out probably 30 packs to members on the board. The Delta Blues crossed to the Skunk18 as well is a winner. Hope you all will Enjoy.

I’m hoping to pull a couple good males like 2 or 3 realistically and one real dank funky lady and do a open pollination to see what these guys have in the gene pool.
