How To Germinate Cannabis Seeds

How To Germinate Cannabis Seeds Seeds Are Dormant Seeds are natures way for offspring to wait for ideal conditions to take place before initiating the growing cycle. Cannabis seeds typically have only 9% moisture (if typically sun drying is practiced) or as low as 5% while dormant with minimal respiration Germination Process of a Seed Absorption of water stimulates germination Embryo synthesizes gibberellin (plant hormone) in response to water uptake Aleurone (protein) layer synthesizes amylase (enzyme) in response to gibberellin Amylase mobilizes energy reserves: hydrolyses starch to maltose. Maltose is converted to glucose and respired to release ATP (energy) Consistency is Important Once the environmental condition ranges are determined, it is critical that they are maintained for the duration of the germination process. Quality Seeds This is the start to any chance at a good germination/emergence Getting seeds from a source that also provides a COA (Certificate of Authenticity) can be well worth it Temperature: 78⁰F-82⁰F (25⁰C-28⁰C) 90⁰+F (or 32⁰+C) will kill the seeds Moisture Level: 90% Relative Humidity 90% Relative Humidity Air: 10% Remember seeds need to respire and take in oxygen There should be some air pockets (no matter the substrate used) to prevent the seeds from downing. Light: 150-300 PPFD/PAR PPFD = Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density PAR = Photosynthetic Active Radiation While not needed for the germination process, it is a good idea to have a light source over the plants so upon emergence the seedling can immediately start photosynthesizing Keep the light diffused to avoid burning newly emerged seedlings Cannabis Seed Germination Summary Start with quality seeds that have a COA Temperature: 78⁰F-82⁰F (25⁰C-28⁰C) Moisture Level: 90% Relative Humidity Air: 10% Planting Depth: 1/8” to ¼” (3mm-6mm) deep Light: 150-300 PPFD/PAR Water: Filtered How Long Will It Take? Germination is typically in 2-7 days Emergence is to be expected to be in 3-10 days *Quality seeds in consistent conditions in the stated range will fall in the lower end of the expected rage. Rockwool Pro: favorable for seed germination Con: disposal can be an issue Soilless Medium Pro: easy to get Con: can be messy Direct Seeding Pro: No need to transplant Con: Needs specialized equipment Which growing substrate would you select?
