Need some guidance. I am new to growing, this forum, this world. I’ve planted germinated seeds 7 days ago and still no growth. Should I continue to wait or just start over? I am growing indoor. I am on 18/6 light rotation. What am i doing wrong. I spray with water 1x daily.

Keep waiting. On my current grow, two seeds popped up right away, but the third seed popped 10 days later. Beware over-watering. It’s the most common grower mistake. After the first watering, I use a humidity dome or domes over and just mist the inside of the dome or domes as needed.

Welcome to the forum a lot of knowledgeable people here.
I always germinate my seeds in water with hydroperoxide to soften the shell and allows it to punch out easier and gives it a lot more oxygen in the process. I make sure it is in a high place of my home to get the highest heat usually on top of the cabinets in the dark always.
I found that seedlings need no more than a half an inch in the soil in a couple of drops of water preferably from a spray bottle so you do not over water seedlings. Many many people over water their seedlings and stunt their growth in the beginning. I just did that this group cuz I was not paying attention LOL.
What you can do is see where you put that seed in the soil on the 10-day Mark to see if anything has happened. If the seed is still in seed form try the water and hydroperoxide method to see if it can still be used. I’ve never had a seed not pop from I love growing marijuana doing the water hydroperoxide method and put it in the dark in a warm environment. Here is
pictures 36 hours of mind. Good luck and domes like the guy above me said help out a lot on seedlings
What are the temps , RH and watering habits in the grow space Growmie

Wow, I am impress, appreciative,and thankful for the insightful, and enlightening responses. Joing this group was a great choice.
After reading your replies, I believe I made the most common mistake of first time growers. I over watered the germinated seeds. will follow the advice to wait 10 days and I will stop watering and begin a light mist with a spray bottle. Let’s say after 10 days nothing happens. Can those seeds be saved? If so, how? Do I start over with new seeds?
Once again, big thanks to everyone for your helpful advice and shared knowledge, much appreciated.
Welcome to the community , My first thoughts how deep did you plant the sprouts.
