From what I understand, the Gib gives it the gusto it may have lost to help crack the shell on it's own - but it doesn't help get the stuff inside the seed. If you are bothering with it, then you should probably also scarify.
That's an additive in cloning powders. I tried that too.
i did store my beans in plastic coke bottles for years, then everyone sent me to school, now my germ rates are much better!(proper storage)
I hit the realization that I had thousands of dollars worth of seeds. I spent less than $200 on a mini cigar humidor fridge. I only run it at 60F, basically half between room temp and actual fridge. I only open it to add seeds after a purchase or to get some out to drop. It almost never runs.
about 20 years ago i had a older man, tell me where to go to get to a field he planted.he said up front they were all in bud ,he had topped em with a sickel bar hay mower(he never said what happened to the mower toppings). every thing was only knee high, i took a hoe and limb loppers when the sun came up,i had a eight truck bed full. i was bad busy, all day string from 1 wall to the other(12ft.x65ft.mobile home )and hanging plants,had a total of 18 lbs. of descent smoke ( dryed)all for free just because ,i happened to drive by when he was trying to put a tire on his trailer , and stopped and helped put it on. best labor trade i ever lucked out on.he passed 2 years later.i really thought alot of him,a really good hearted person!@ the time i lived alittle over 1/4 mile from the main road. i could smell the place@ half way up the lane.
Set up for life!I have only been doing this since 2016 as far as getting 'bred' seeds. Lots of tester crosses I didn't have room to run all of, some assortments I got in auctions, and stuff I have bought. So I don't have to get into the fridge to do planning it's all on a spreadsheet.
As of today I have 116 strains/crosses of regs and 66 of the fems. There's 355 fem seeds though, so that that many girls to flower.
I'm 56. Doing the math I need to live to a ripe old age to see it all - assuming I didn't get more
Which is why I have my 'last' order coming in this week LOL
He prolly had all those "tops" and was rushing to get the fuck out of dodge and had a damn flat. He was actually shittin' bullets. Hahaha!
nope if there were to have been ,i could have smelt it.
not to say anything about the smoke, that left u at a stop light ,even after it turned green ,foot still on the brakes!
I need to find someone to will my grow equipment to just in case ,i don't make it to a ripe old age.
Everything i have fits on 1 page ,with space left at the bottom, for many new additions!I have only been doing this since 2016 as far as getting 'bred' seeds.

I only have a few "expensive" packs. For the most part I consider spending $10/bean an investment.
) but I also got some legit fire and the two beans I popped led me to prepping for a pollen chuck with some FREEEEEEE 707 Seedbank gear. The pack count adds up exponentially if you buy beans - and don't get me started on Rasta Jeff - bought 5 packs for about the same price andgot 10 packs.
Or the smoke that had you braking at green lights
