Taproot just came out...help...

[SomeGuy]

I have a few seeds that I germinated with the paper towel method. A few minutres ago I put them in small plastics up filled with dirt with a hole at the bottom. After i stuck them under the soil and covered them, I ran water through the cup to soak all the dirt. Now they are sitting in my room.

What do I do now? Just let them sit in the dark until I see a sprout emerging from the dirt?

BTW these are bag seeds, just experimenting with growing....

i would put some light on them and wait. bagseeds are fine; that is all i have grown, and got some good results. although, i am planing on buying some for next year. here are some pics of my outdoor bagseeds from this year.

ok... i plan to plant them outside when they sprout...I guess i will put a small office fluorescent ligh for now

hey guy, that light should work for now. btw how warm is it in tx right now? i am in tn with 2-3" of snow.

[SomeGuy]

Its about 35 degrees farenheit....here in austin
no snow

keep them moist until they pop. Then no humidity dome. Water when the soil is much lighter than it is now. Flos go close. No nutrients are needed to sustain growth until the cotyledons yellow. A light breeze will be great.

I bet your alkaline is high. You might want to put some distilled white vinegar in the water to lower the PH. Buy a test kit first

umm i hate to say it but it IS WINTER! not a good idea to plant out side. i live in texas also near dallas you more than likely know about the cold weater we have here right now and as IthoughtIknewitall said austin soil sucks for bud growth. if you can you might want to look into hydroponics your plant will be good for smokeing alot faster than if you plant it out side. i;m not saying that your bud wont grow i mean it IS native to texas. just try to find a place where there isnt much rocks around.

prep your soil! if you want a good plant you need to dig a hole about one foot deep and one foot wide that will loosen the soil so the roots can grow faster.

are you trying to hide them or what? cause that can change the whole plan.


i'm really stoned right now so i;m sorry if you dont understand me... lol

Put outside at like 15 days after the last freeze date. You can have alot higher success rate if you start plants in a less harsh environment. Even a five gallon bucket is like heaven to a plant in any environment. Bottom line. .... Next time youget bag seeds, throw them in a five gallon bucket with sand and perlite. Watch the most amazing shit.
