What are the best options for starting from seed for indoor growing?

1.Put the seed or seeds in a half full shot glass.
2.As soon as in cracks and you see a white tail coming out put root down into a mix of 1/3 fox farm ocean forest and two thirds fox farm light warior. You only want to put it about a quarter inch into the soil. A styrafoam cup is ideal just poke holes in the bottom for drainage.
3.Give it only water ph'd to 6.4-6.8 for the first week.
4.After the first week I would then introduce mycorrhizae and rhizotonic(CANNA) into your water also ph'd 6.4-6.8.
5.Give it two weeks and transplant into a three gallon pot. Just easily cut the side of the cupand pull out without damaging roots,sprinkle some mycorrhizea directly on the dirt that will touch roots during transplant. Mix up the same sollution myco and rhizo I explained above in your water for feed,between the myco on the dirt and the rhizo and myco in the feed you will experience no transplant shock whatsoever.
At about the three and a half week mark you will be ready to give it a nutrient solution I recomend house and garden soil one component in conjunction with myco and rhizo. Remember not to over water your seedlings I recomend just a little over half a cup for the first few waterings in the dixie cup,and wait untill it's rather dry to water again. I have alot of experience with allot of other nutrient lines so if you have allready commited to a line let me know which one and I will gladly help you allong. GOOD LUCK! By the way if your planting in coco do everything the same except ph your feed to 5.8-6.0 and when you start feeding use canna coco and cannazyme allong with your myco and rhizo. However I recomend soil if it's your first go at it.

Or if youre going Hydro you can put the seed directly into a rockwool cube that has been soaked in 5.5 Ph water. When the roots poke out of the side put it into some Hydroton, and you're ready to go.

easiest way I've germinated in the past is to just keep them inside a soaked paper towel with pH balanced about 6.5 and keep them moist until they sprout and then transplant and refer to @twylights methods for afterwards... hope that helps

I just germed two seeds from attitude in an altoids container. used the paper towels just like in most of the methods, but I found that you lose less moisture so you can get it nice and moist once and just leave it closed to whole time. Seeds were ready to pot in less than 72 hours.
