I'm sure you've all been there, seeing your poor seedling trying to break free of that 'film' that surrounds the embryonic leaves even after the seed casing has fallen off. I took a tweezers to mine this morning, trying to slip off the thin film like a sock. It came off great but took one of the cotyldeons with it. Think my baby can still make it? I mean it still has one of them so there's the energy source and I even se the very small nub of the first blade leaf. Should be ok, right?
Been there, done that
Some seedlings don't seem to mind abuse....others, get a little runted for awhile...others may die....just have to wait a see...:thumbsup:
Hybrid Vigor is the key

Seedlings actually love moisture. Thats why some people use humidity domes to sprout their seeds. You want to keep the soil fairly moist until the plant has established its roots (takes about a week), then start it on a watering cycle.Quote:
