Hey all,

i bought some hollands hope seeds at a stall in camden yesterday and have put them in a wet paper towel in a dvd case in a warm spot. When iv been looking at other pics of seeds mine seem really small in comparison?
Could anyone comment on this, i have also included a photo of the packaging of the seeds.

Cheers,


chili

sorry for crap quality, its off my phone!

Seed packet looks familiar,is it one of the old "Kulu seed" paclets?

Seeds come in all sizes mate, the last ones I germed were tiny (smaller than those wink1.gif ) but I still had an over 75% success rate with them. smile.gif

I was gonna say an old positronics seed packet. Maybe they all used one supplier and stuck their own labels on.

It is a positronics (werner) packet,I got some Kulu seeds in newcastle at Pashas in the Mid 1990's in the exact same packet(I wonder if paschas is still open) unsure.gif

Your right Villain,I just searched through some old mags etc,Kulu originally traded as positronics wink.gif The first packs I grew were red haired skunk,I grew it in a rented flat and stunk the place out,no idea about filters back then unsure.gif Seeds vary in size chili,so long as they are well developed with good colour your fine,its whats inside the shell that matters.

Cheers guys, anyone know how long i will have to wait before i see some action? Im so impatient right now, the weather's so good i just wanna get those suckers in the soil!
Bad Penny.

Wow a blast from the past, I also grew the red haired skunk a few times smile.gif
Bad Penny.
Be interested to hear how much Chili paid for those beans,I cant remember how much they were,I think £12 but not 100% sure on that unsure.gif
chiliguy
£12! (for 5 seeds)
Bad Penny.
Thats exactly the price I paid in the mid 1990's,they were very good seeds actually,first ever attempt at growing indoors and the crop turned out perfect wink.gif Good luck with them.
chiliguy
Cheers Penny, il keep you posted. Hopefully these seeds arnt relics and have been stored properly.
chiliguy
Still no sprouts unsure.gif
