I might have to restart my NLBX with coco, they really don’t seem to like my soil. They keep uprooting themselves. I’ve buried them 4 times now and they keep digging themselves out. Coco should be here today. Will hydrate and get to filling and see if I can save the ones already germinated.

So I thought only 2 of the 2 NLBX survived the water peroxide germination. I put all in the dirt and all 3 have sprouted but are uprooting themselves. I have replanted them deeper and deeper each time. Going to swap all 3 to coco when it comes in. I just found the 3rd one this morning shell still on and about 3 inches long fully uprooted. It’s in a 70/30 soil perlite mix. Shouldn’t be uprooting.

I felt that post was needed tho. I think I’ve only read of one grower so far doing the growoff that hasn’t had helmet head.

I dropped 4 on the 1st. Thought 1 wasn’t going to make it and had to pop the shell off. This is her 1 minute ago…

I dropped five NL5BX yesterday morning and, like so many of you, less than 24 hours later and a couple of them have cracked already. Some of them may go into Solo cups and Roots Organic soil this afternoon. :wolf: :wolf: :vulcan_salute: :man_mage:

Looks like a party over there. What all you got going on @Bunger64? Are those all clones?

No it always runs I have the off setting set at 3 speed. It never turns off. I keep the air fresh this way.

Actually i cycle both beans and clones, once i figured out my mistakes it almost happens on its own, im just the bus driver getting them to the finish line. I have had a clone strain going on 3 yrs now. I use my clippings before flip to make clones. Mothers just wasn’t feasible.

Yeah, no helmet heads but overnight while I was waiting for the other 2 out of the 10 to reach the surface, the other 8 stretched about 3 inches and one flopped over. I had to transplant all 8 into solo cups to bury them deeper. I also dug the 2 that weren’t reaching the surface up and out and repositioned them after reading about others here having anomolies with their seedlings. They did seem like they were having some issues on deciding which way was up when I unearthed them and set them straight. The Tomahawk 720 is on and set to 300 PPFD

Just from the incoming data of these seedlings, I’m guessing these NL are going to be quite leggy?

Yeah, they appeared that way but I didn’t have any light on them but 11 watts, 1000 lumens. A desk lamp bulb. About 25 PPFD. That’s why mine stretched. No mystery there.
