Nice job! But, just for the sake of making sure, did you label your cups accordingly?

I just noticed you color coded them… Ohhhh, you are good woman! :nerd_face:

Yes I labeled everything. I am a label nazi hahaha. The labels are under the orange cups.

I am trying the seed back in water with a bit of hydrogen peroxide. Heard that may help it break out. We will see. My heart is breaking but I am still hoping my baby ape makes it. I’ll keep ya posted.

Morning update:

No action on my cups yet. Trying very hard to not over water or over love them at this point.

Unfortunately, l I think my baby ape is officially dead. Decided not to pop another bean and just go with my 5 ladies for now.

Just received the following seeds though for my next adventure:

Gorilla Glue auto
Blueberry auto
White Widow
Purple Haze

Before throwing away that seed, you might want to force it to open by squeezing it gently between your fingers and then try to germinate it… who knows! :nerd_face:

Hmmm I think I will try that. Nothing to lose at this point I guess. Thank you for the tip. Gonna try that this morning. I’ll keep ya posted!

If you want to try different things, @docdre has a journal where he tried to revive really old and hard seeds… lots of info and things to try if you feel so inclined…

Okay I pinched baby ape open and could see the coiled taproot which looked good to my unexpierenced eye.

I put it in the paper towel and will check it this afternoon.

I swear if this baby makes it she is gonna be my little favorite.

Keep your fingers crossed.

I didn’t take a pic cuz I was nervously getting her into the paper towel.

Keep it moist for a few days, we never know… and one grower here ( @justgrowin) just throw her ā€˜ā€™dead’’ seeds in a pot with some soil in… sometimes they sprout eventually… :nerd_face:

I am rooting for you here @beths… I don’t throw out until the 10 day germ fail gets hit… I have won some that I otherwise wouldn’t have…

@beths I noticed some membrane still on the cotyladons… Might want to take tweezers or a toothpick and gently pull that off so the cotyladons can open up
