growing in progress, need a bit of help

[fuzzylogic]

Ok well I planted 5 seeds directly in plastic cups 4 days ago, kept the moist, and they have done nothing yet, is that a bad thing? I also germinated some seeds using paper towels but I'm not sure if they are ready to be moved into cups yet. I moved 1 into a cup as an example to see if I did it correctly.

the ones that have roots place them in cups w/ the entire seed burried.. it'll find it's way to the light..
the ones that i placed under my HID sprouted above ground in 1 day, floros i think may take just a little bit longer..
just push your finger in the dirt, grab some tweezers and drop the seed in.. put a little dirt on top so that roots dont get hit by the light, and wa-la... bunch of little plants!

Thanks, seems easy enough, I'll be back with more pictures in a few days .

yes as soon as they sprout then plant them and if i were you i would find the largest pots you have because then it will save you the time later of transplanting. You only need to plant them about 1/2 inch under the soil they will dig down

Ok well 2 plants started to grow pretty nicely, the rest haven't done much of anything yet. Maybe they are dead? I took a few pictures of the 2 that are growing.

CAN WE SAY SSTTRREECCHH?? YOU NEED TO GET SOME LIGHT CLOSE TO THEM. THEY ARE WAY TOO LANKY. GOOD LUCK

Poor ladies want their mother sun as Boyznus already stated.

Get some lights on yo girls!

ok what if I used normal lights with like 75 watt bulbs, I dont have any flourecents and the sun has not really been shining here for the past like 4 days.

[fuzzylogic]

Ok I bought a nice light yesterday, 2000 lumens or something, 150 watt I think (spiral looking one). The two plants that were already sprouted look better already after one 10 hour period with the light. I just planted about 10 more seedlings 1/4'' roots burried them about 1 seed length deep just about. Included a few pics of my small setup. Feedback would be appreciated. Thank you!
