Not looking great

@BobbyDigital so a sit and wait situation?

Pretty much. Don’t helicopter them, they are weeds after all. Once she pokes out of the soil more you’ll be able to tell if she has a membrane stuck in her. A little dab of spit (sounds gross but works well) on her and she’ll shed it off in no time.

Its playing twister!

I did once. I transplanted it fine and that night it leaned over. So I went to straighten it up but the main stem already pinched and it popped right out of the soil. This was only using around 5 ml of water and it was a strain I had only 1 seed of. :pensive:

I have not watered at all, I have used mist from my humidifier to fill the cup and placed that over the girls.

I know what I think but it’s on you , how to grow. Ask @Cannabian

@SKORPION what are your thoughts? I am far from a pro and would love as much info as possible.

I get that and I understand but if I give advice and someone contradicts my advice it can be confusing especially for a beginner.my advice would be to dome them as seedlings and water a few inches a way from the base more each time. Twice a day in the soil and a couple sprays in the dome.

People have been doing what @SKORPION is suggesting with great success for many years. But he is right, ultimately you must choose the path grasssmoker. To dome or not to dome? Thatbis the question.

@SKORPION I apologize if I contradicted you, it was not my intent. There has always been those that dome and those that dont, you will find success in both camps. Likewise there are those that plant seed directly into medium rather than the drown and towel method, even though both have reasonable success rates. There are also good arguments for both the seed thing and the dome thing! My experience has been that domes help maintain moisture in a medium during the germinating process but once the seed has broken ground there seems to be little reason to use one as the roots will go to work very quickly assuming the environment is proper and the grower is not baking them with lighting. Again, this in no way is intended to contradict what you are saying, its just my opinion and as such it should ve taken that way.

I understand I try to only advise beginning I know how hard it was to start. You seem advanced ( green house grower right) people forget how hard it was starting out once they get advanced. I only want to get them thru the first harvest if they out grow my methods that’s fine at least they got to that point.

Oh man! I continue to baffle myself with stupidity sometimes! I still have loads of learning to do. And lots of plants to kill. Im a very keep it simple kinda grower. Put seed in dirt… water… watch grow… water more… kill … dry… smoke… but it works. Time and time again the easiest way to grow dope works. Thats why I do organics because its simple and relatively fool proof! Lol :laughing:

Hey I get it what I say may not work and what you say may not work . It comes down to conditions and follow thru. Each person builds a style from information and success rate.

I use a dome as long as possible.


Same dome on it time to remove and be free. The dome is like a little greenhouse when growing.

And thanks to both of you for the info. The more info I get, the better decisions I can make based off of that info. If that information is contradicted from someone else’s information, then what makes more sense to me is where I tend to go.

I will say I did over water the little ones, even though I was just using a small sprayer. I know this because I now have unwanted guests. I believe they are called fungus flies. My dirt is getting drier, and I have sticky paper up, but I still see multiple of them in my dirt. Many fewer than 2 days ago, however.
I will get some Damascus earth if they persists past a few more days. @SKORPION @Cannabian

Yeah that works they lay eggs in the soil.

Diatomaceous, its made of the skeletons of creatures called diatoms. Very sharp to exoskeletons and soft skinned creatures like slugs and such even ants
