Welcome to the Cake factory 🎂

I will be putting them in 5 gallon fabrics. I hope this corrects what ever is going on

@kaptain3d its fresh soil, purchased this year and mixed myself like i did my other runs :disappointed_face:

These wedding cake autos are stubborn little children! :melting_face:

What kind of soil is that?

The first thing I see when looking at your pictures is more wilting rather than curling. It can be very common in small seedling containers. The wilting occurs when the roots are struggling in the soil. Normally do to…

1.) improper drainage
2.) over or underwatering
3.) environmental discomfort

Just based on your comments about not over or underwatering etc leads me to believe it’s the roots are restricted. I will venture to say when you transplant into 5 gallon pot that it’s going to correct the issue. The plants are definitely ready for transplant in those little tiny containers (not much different than a solo cup)

I don’t have anything certain to share but if leaves are touching the soil they will start to look rough pretty quickly. Maybe light is a little close or something else keeping plants squat? Hard to say for sure but they kinda look that way in pictures.

They are in their new homes!

There are two gdp autos going, in there still lol.

I moved one of the gdp auto to my home grow. To monitor, more or less. I started these in root riot cubes, and they took on to much water at the base of the plant. I wonder how big it will get? :laughing:

It has lost two nodes worth of leaves already. It will probably be a stunter.

The stem is stiff like a tree branch.

It’s because users don’t have PM access on ILGM. You have PM only when replying to a message from a moderator…
So, next time @Olaf.ILGM or another moderator PM you, just “bookmark” the PM and then you’ll have an access to a private PM with them if you need… :nerd_face:

They almost look like they are growing like a branch stuck in the ground?

Well, 11 of the 20 popped. 3 of those 11 grew a little a died. I dropped the last three of the 20 in a shot glass and let them grow tails, but these two grew tails, the other turned black and got white fuzzy stuff growing on it in the distilled water it was setting in.

I have never had this bad of germ rate.


These last two im trying to start do not look promising. My germination rate is 11 out of 20, so a little over 50% :disappointed_face: im counting the ones that did grow tails but died, also in my germ rate. Total growing at the moment is 8.

@Olaf.ILGM hey growmie i sent the support team an email. I have tried all 20, 11 of the 20 germinated, but 3 of those 11 died, so i just have 8 growing.

But officially 9 seeds did not germinate, turned black on me and did not develope tails😞

The majority of these have been shooting up like poles. So i super cropped the single pole growth in hopes to make them bush out some. That one in the center is doing great!
