“Only one seed popped, very disappointing and that one is a runt that turned to flower after only 2 weeks on a 20 hour light exposure so yield look very poor not tasted yet but I won’t be purchasing from that seed supplier again but still love Seedsman”
“To be honest the seeds got lost somewhere along the line and when it came time to plant I was forlorn that they could not be located. I'll order more next season and see how it goes.”
“Gotta say, I was really dissapointed since I had heard so much about "Northern Lights"
I bought 5 "Auto-Northern Lights" seeds, as well as several other "auto" varieties. With Auto's, because I can leave the lights on 18 hours, I like to grow 2 different plants side by side so that I have a varied "stock" of stuff available depending on mood.
So I tried to germinate a Northern Lights seed as well as another (in the first run, it was "Lowryder#2") - the "lowryder" germinated fine and within a day had sprouted and potted, the "Northern Lights" after a week - NADA.
It was the same story with all 5 seeds. The other seeds I started at the same time, all sprouted (some took 5 days), but none of the "Northern Lights" did. I tried every germination technique I could find from soaking them, using a wet clothe, damp clothe or barely moist clothe. Lightly abbrasion on the shell so the water could soak in easier, and leaving them for 2 weeks in case they were very slow.
ZIP - so that was a waste. No other strain, whether Auto or Reg/Fem has given me such trouble...
I don't know if they were old seeds, or they were exceptionally finicky, but I'm not going to give up, I still want to try "Northern Lights", but will look for a different farm instead”
