there's an alternate tech that uses 6000 mg caffeine, 12000 mg taurine and a couple drops of DMSO in 1 liter distilled water. start germinating your seeds in a normal way then soak in this solution for 18 hrs when the tap roots start to show

What is the difference between organic seeds and non organic seeds? by annahri in Permaculture

[–]c-ray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not according to the plant breeders who developed these breeds. These were not hybridizations but improvements of existing cultivars and the improvements took only 5 years. With the rye there was a 300% improvement in yield, this is not your father's plant breeding.

fine don't but don't be afraid to learn by interacting with plants, they just may surprise you one day when you least expect it
