Hey there! What a great community you have here :slight_smile: I’ve enjoyed reading through many topics. I am new to growing and I have seeds en route :slight_smile: I’m going to start with two plants, growing in an empty closet in my bedroom. It has a solid wood door on it. It is 3ft wide x 19inch…

[image] AngelT: Is this heater/fan a good idea? if you find you need a heater, that one may be a little too strong for your grow space, it’s rated at 500 watts. I got a smaller heater, rated at 200 watts for my 3 x 3 x 6 tent and it raises the temp from 63F to 73F https://www.amazon.com/Las…

@AngelT , could you find that heater on amazon, and please remove those links they are not sponsored by our forum a quick rundown on what links we allow here: Amazon Dealzer Aliexpress Any thing besides those aren’t allowed just a friendly tip of advise

Thanks for all of the info and tips! I will let you know when I start :slight_smile:

My seeds came yesterday, 7 days after I ordered. I started germinating and I can already see a taproot coming out (it’s been about 18 hours). Can’t believe those little seeds will grow 5’-6’ tall! [image]

It’s been 6 days and my seed still hasn’t changed from 5 days ago. I see pictures of seeds with a larger root than this when they are planted. I’ve kept the paper towel wet and dark. Should I plant this and give it light, or keep waiting? Thanks in advance! [image]

I would plant it and give her some light. I always put in in a rapid rooter or a peat pellet after I soak them in water for 24 hours. I don’t use the paper towel method. I hope this helps. I know some wait till there is more of a taproot, but that’s just how I do it. Not saying it’s the best way, bu…

Hey @AngelT Take the paper towel and squeeze most of the water out of that towel and keep her dark and warm 81 degrees and keep checking her every 3-4 hours. Moist, Dark and Warm!!! Good Luck and keep us posted!

Too wet, you need to get her out of that soggy towel and put her in damp/moist soil :+1:Good luck

Day 9. Well, I followed the first advice and got, and planted it in ph-adjusted rockwool, and put some light on it in the hydro bucket. It’s been about 18 hours in the light and I just checked it and the little taproot went back inside the shell. Maybe it didn’t start growing but just expanded with…

I must be the odd one in the group I start seeds using shot glass Method I scuff them slightly then soak overnight or until they sink then throw them straight into moist rockwool or starter pallet. I keep them covered and in almost darkness on a heating pad until they break surface 3-7 days then add…
