all the seeds are now in the process that I dread, sprouting. I seem to have the worst of luck when it comes to this stage, with usually about a 10% sprout rate (seriously). something always seems to happen to the seeds, they get damp off or whatever, and they never seem to sprout. if I could only get rooted clones, I'd be laughing.

temperatures now seem to be staying around 25-26 degrees celcius. I'm using an electric space heater and heating pad to bring the temperatures up, otherwise they'd be stable at around 17 degrees celcius (which seems way too cool for this stage). my thermometer does not measure humidity, so I'm in the dark there.

all that I know is that whenever I seem to feel the soil it seems dry, and I'm watering it more than once a day, so I don't know exactly what that means. I would assume that it would mean the humidity is not very high (I'd think the soil would be staying wet longer if it was high). maybe the temps are too high, and the water in the soil is evaporating too fast? I dunno, but I'm hoping for the best here.

So please, everyone, cheer on my little girls through this high risk time. :clap:






EDIT: I should note my germ rates: 7 out of 10 for the DoubleGum, 9 out of 10 for the AK-48, 4 out of 5 for the Haze x Skunk, but unfortunately the other seeds didn't do so well (they were a few years old).
