I have some new seeds that have sprouted. I am wondering what is the best way to transfer them to my fog system and when that would be. The only way I know how to germinate seeds is to stick them on a wet paper towel and place them under a bowl of some sort. A few days later and they pop open. At this point the new seeds are about 1 inch long sprouts. At what point should I transfer them into my existing fog system and additional plants?
I worry that they wont be able to take nutrients right away and a full light cycle. My wife thinks I should stick the sprout in a glass of water and put on the windowsill. After about a week in the cup, she thinks there will be enough roots that I can then put into netcups.
Up till now, I have only grown plants in my fog system that were already tiny plants and even then I had a hard time getting them to take to the system. I want this next generation of plants to have an easier time transplanting.
