Hi casey, I started three seeds indoors 15 march. I soaked them for three hours in a 1/2 strength Mircle grow solution then used peat pot's with about 1" of peat in the bottom and a good potting soil. I put the seed 1" deep and poured the Miracle grow on it. then when it needed water I continued to use 1/2 strength miracle grow.when I transplanted I put a sister seed in each mound. Due to a hail storm only 1 plant remains. I transplanted in the beginning of May. All the sister seeds have come up.They have 4 leaves. The one that I started indoors is about 2' long with 12 leaves. I hope this will help you. This is my first year using seeds from Mr. Dill.Previously I relied on a local nursery and used Big Max and Big Moon aswell as Hybrid Prize Winner. My best was 213Lbs. All the seeds I purchased from Dill came up,they were 696,853 Hebb. Art LeDoux.

Art, i think you will beat your record of 213 pounds with these good seeds. I also bought 788 Wentzell's from Dill's website and that seed is doing the best for me right now and there is a female flower on it already. It is too late for me now to start a 696 hebb seed so i will try next year, i think i am going to ask another grower i know around here if he can try to germinate one of these seeds. Thanks for the info.
