It's perfectly fine if u put them straight into the dirt. Think of how it happens in nature. There r not paper towels or shot glasses of water under the plants as they drop seeds. I would just recommend covering ur cups with a ziplock and keeping the top of the soil moist because it can dry fast. They will be just fine. Maybe just add a few days to the germination time. Then again they might surprise u.
Treez81 Reviewed by Treez81 on . Germ first, or just plant. Hey guys, Few day reader, First day poster! I have been reading around at ALL The info that is out there for growing, and am honestly overwhelmed and hard pressed for accurate information. I am actually going to start a very small grow, 1-2 plants, and have never started from seed, only 2 week old starts. Here's my questions: Is it OK to just plant the seed before germing it in a wet napkin? If so, how much longer can i actually expect to wait for some sprout? Rating: 5
