I just wanna know, after the seed's little white root pops out, how long would it take for it to poke its head though the soil, from a 400watt, or a flouersent light, with a heat mat under and a little plastic thing on top :eek: . thanks for any reply

well you do not need the light on untill they break through, and usually 2 to 3 days once you put them in soil, also depends how deep you plant them..

Becareful close to almost everyone f**ks up the first grow unless you do
your studying and make sure you have it all sunk in your head

i can also tell you about a book that i read alot and has alot to do with my
grows "The cannabis grow bible" By Greg Green it's an awesome book and has just about all your answers to your questions :p

You do not require any light for germinating/sprouting. I attached a picture of 2 plants I currently have going. It took about 4 days to grow a 1/2inch taproot on her, I kept them well watered, in 3 more days I had 2 sprouts showing. They are now under light and flourishing beautifuly.

So to answer your question, after the taproot has shown, and you plant in soil, it should take about 2-10days. Anymore time than that and it is a good chance she won't pop. Keep the soil moist at all times while she is still sprouting. Don't let that freshly sprouted root dry out in the soil, or it will die. When it has finally sprouted, then start going through the wet/dry cycle. Good luck, peace.
