These are the best pics I have from today; it’s so small in there.
She sprouted yesterday and opened her cotyledon leaves yesterday late afternoon. What appears to be the first set of serrated leaves are sooo tiny and they seem to be infused into the cotyledon leaves.
This is my fourth plant; my other seedlings have opened up with their small serrated leaves easily visible and distinct.
I’ve had really odd ones too… this was my latest… her cotyledons were growing together as one and the one first leaf was growing in between them like they swallowed her LOL She pulled out of it.
Our plants are always teaching us. My second plant really struggled to get the seed membrane off, and my third plant grew a man ball (that I cut off, of course), and both plants gave me wonderful weed.
Oh, I hate helmet heads! I did find out if you spritz it with water and let it sit for about a minute, you can take a pair of sharp tweezers, put the bales together, put them under the seed cap (helmet) and let the tweezers open and it will pop right off… if not, spritz again with water and repeat.
What a difference four days can make. Thanks to all of the replies. She is an Afghan girl, the first I’ve grown of this strain, and these first leaves look really … Indica-like. From almost no leaves to fatty leaves.
Hello, I germinated an Og Kush feminized seed, about 2 days ago she grew above the soil but the shell is still attached with no leaves showing. Is this normal or should I be thinking of peeling the cap off or start over?
Unfortunately I tried to open the husk and it just about fell off but the center was white and mushy. I think it may have dampened off, so I’m germinating a new seed in a glass of dechlorinated water with a few drops of peroxide. Hopefully tomorrow we’ll get this right!
