Mist of destruction :-D I think I might actually start giving away some of my freebies soon though, someone I know plants on their land, about 1000 Acres :-D
Still no green sprouting yet, hopefully when I get back this evening :-/
planted 10 lows all ten popped 8 were female one was a twin, used peat pellets and the mini greenhouse, worked great, got 14grm average on each
Newgoal, what sorta lighting did you grow them under?
This morning I got rid of the seeds that I figured weren't coming up. I broke them open where the taproot came out, and it seemed that the insides were cooked. Perhaps the HPS light killed them?
The ones I'm currently starting are under flouros and being kept cooler. Hopefully that makes the difference. Still no cotyledons yet, keeping my fingers crossed.
HPS could cause infrared over-heat on your seeds and kill them quite fast. So rule of tumb is avoid HPS to start seeds and use floros at 2 - 3'' over the plant canopy to maximize lumens absoption by the plants. Also, push seeds 1'' in the ground so they are covered by soil OR in darkness if you germinate using moist paper towel...(Germinating seeds in darkness is what gives the nicest results) Keep soil moist but NOT damp. Keep em groing under floros till they are 2 weeks at least, earlier is too risky and could burn the seedlings causing stress and plant stunts...
Hope it helps! :)
Happy Growing & Good Luck! :thumbsup:
Still nothing, fingers crossed.
Mafia, I've had pretty good luck moving other seedlings to HPS within a day of sprouting. As long as it's not right down on them right away, they love it!
i used fluro's to germ them and when they were ready they went under a 1000w mh, which everyone said wouldn't work well but i'm very impressed and proud of my first grow. i see no need for a hps after this, but the experimenter that i am i'll go buy a hps and try that too, just to compare. and then i'll have both to use if i see a distinct difference
Ok, so one of the seeds seems to be coming along slowly, I don't think it's dead. Hopefully it shows it's head tonight, but these seeds are being really damn slow. I just don't get it at all. Another one changed the direction its root was growing and started going up. Most bizarre thing ever. This is five days so far.
Would it be at all worth it to load them with Thrive Alive B1 or Earth Juice Catalyst? If so, how much?
