Well, I don't use rockwool. I germinate mine either soil or in a jar. If you're doing soil, then put some seeds in a small pot. Water and keep moist. Put in a warm place to sprout. Once they sprout very carefully lift them to individual pots or trays. Just are there are many different growers, there are methods of growing. If you decide to go soiless to sprout them dampen a papertowel. Put seeds in a tupperware container, cover container and leave in a warm spot for several days. After germinating, let the root get 1 1/2 to 2" long. Plant in hydro sytem rockwool or hydroton. Make sure the seedling does not dry out or they will die. Rockwool has it's own ph and holds alot of water. Read messages on how to deal with rockwool. It this your first time growing?
yea it is my first time growing but ive been doing reasearch on how to grow. mostly ive been looking into growing soil not hydro so i dont really know that much about the subject. thanks for your help
If you've never grown or are new to hydro. Start with soil. It's much easier and more forgiving. I have been growing in soil for 25 years. This is my first time growing pot. I started 5 seeds in soil and 5 seeds in hydro. The soil plants are a breeze in comparison to hydro. I wanted to make sure I had something to smoke in case I screwed up the hydro grow. If you go soil, let the top dry out before watering and always water with a weak solution of ferts. Good luck.
I used every method known to man...The best I have found is the Rapid Rooters, they sell in hydro stores, pre-moistened, and all...Just pop a seed into it and spritz a couple/3 times a day and BBAMM sprouts in 2-4 days usually...good luck.lwQuote:
