4 out of 6 of my Big Buds autos died

So i dug up my autos that didnt germinated within 6 days, and to my surprise they were 2x as deep as i planted them. I found these two girls in the pic 2 inches under the soil dead. Lesson learnt, never plant them below 1/4 inch deep.

That sucks! Have you contacted ILGM support? They might work it out with you. I know they at least guarantee the seeds sprout.

I got these from MSNL seed bank, I feel like it is my fault for planting them an inch deep, one sprouted and is doing well, the one other remaining has a healthy root. I am hoping she pops up today, i left her only 1/4 under the soil. Sad day, but we grow and learn its my first time.

I have 10 headband OG fem, 10 THC bomb fem, 4 caramelicious fem, 10 aurora indica regular seeds. Do you guys think i can grow 4 more in there with the 2 autos? I was thinking keep them in veg with the 20/4 light cycle and when i harvest the autos ill just switch to 12/12 light cycle. It would give them a good 6-7 weeks to veg.

Idk I’ve literally planted a seed 2 inches deep as an experiment and it’s still popped out of the soil. Could’ve been a whole bunch of things, not knocking you just saying I don’t think depth is a factor really.

Who knows, maybe a bad batch. I am going to do 4 caramelicious fem’d seeds now. Ill transplant for better success since they are not autos
