Starting Grow Outside

I just grabbed some God Bud seeds and am going to start growing soon, in Northern Ontario. I am planning on germinating my seeds in wet paper towel before and then planting them in an outdoor natural good soil and was just wondering how much water they'll need for the first week?

...proboably less than you think, add perlite to the soil, this will make it more foregiving. just add enough water to make the soil moist, i'd guess around 2-3 tablespoons. i'd recommend putting saran wrap over your pots, and wrap a rubberband around the pot to keep it on, then pull it tight. the sarahan wrap will start to form water droplets on the bottom, this is holding in the moisture and keeping the seed at a consistant humidity, and not allowing any of the water to leave. leave these on untill you see a sprout. i'd also recommend germinateing the seeds before you plant them as well.

Nothing Specific

The easiest way to start them is after you sprout them in the paper towel put them in a small driking plastic cup 3/4ths full of soil. Use a pen to put a small hole down in the soil. Drop them in the hole sprout facing up. Cover the hole(dont pack it down) then with a small spraty bottle give it 4 little squirts. Enough to get it moist. Also put some tiny holes at the bottom along with some rocks at the bottom. Then after youve sprayed them put some plastic rap over them to keep in the humidity and moisture. Then bury the cup in the ground once it has come up through the soil(in the cup). Since the cup is not full some of the cup will be showing. This makes starting your babies much easier incase of messed up weather. Stuff happens from time to time. This way its safer for the plant. Also if you need to bring them inside for any reason it makes it much easier.
