Okay I bought the seeds from SeedBoutique.com. I germed 3 and 2 cracked and I planted them in topsoil. They didn't sprout yet. It's been 2 days since they were planted and I was wondering how long it would take. I'll post pics later...

im waiting for two of mine to sprout aswell, i just planted them last night, it could take up to a week and a half.... it all depends on temps. and humidity and ph. and stuff,

anyways wait untill they sprout after 3 weeks if they dont sprout than i say plant another one...

good luck man

Well yeah that's kind of what my setup is. i have two more lights but I need to buy some sockets. I'm gonna add more lights once I get more money. Should I leave the lights on or turn them off before the seeds sprout. It's been 3 days and it feels like forever.

turn them off and save some money... also light drys out the soil too much i find

turn them off until the cotyledon open up. before this there is no use.

Okay I had one seedling and I tried to take the seed case off it but I by accidently ripped one of the leaves off so I had to trash it. I germed another seed so I'm still waiting for the other ones to sprout. I'll get more pics as soon as they sprout.

let them do their thing... if theres a plant whose seed case wont come off by itself, it deserves to die because obviously the strongest survive... let nature take its course tho... good luck, watch the nutes with white widow

Hi Aznbeaver, BrazyJay has a good point there.
You don't want to waste your time on semi-good plants, just whipe out the weak.
Usualy it's a good thing to start out with a bunch of seeds at the same time.
Half will be to weak to grow, half of what's left will be male.
So you have maybe 25% chance on a healthy female.
You may want to start with 10 seeds or so.
btw, nice fluro color you got there, they appear purpleish!

No, I was just anxious and I tried ripping the seed case off gently but whatever. Right now I have a seedling that's vegging but it had some light burns but it seems to be doing fine. I will get pics as soon as my phone sends properly.

id check that topsoil, to see haw packed it is,,, id suggest you put them in a light medium type soil,,,, those seeds are going to catch hell trying to break that ground,,,,

i like to give them all the help i can,,, making it easier for them to break the dirt is a small thing,,,,, just a thought!!!

aznbeaver · #11 (**permalink**) 01-07-2007, 05:11 AM

Yeah that was an old pic they all died except the plant i have in veg. That was probably why they didn't sprout because the soil was packed too hard. Well it's day 5 and my phone is not sending the right pics to my e-mail so bare with me...

Plants is growing 3rd set of leaves. Leaf growth is like 60 percent everyday. I can't wait to see how big it will be in a month.

9 Days Old

aznbeaver · #13 (**permalink**) 01-26-2007, 03:15 AM

Okay I haven't reposted in awhile. My plant grew a lot since last time, duh. The plant is still prettey green but my lower leaves are starting to yellow. My first set of leaves yellowed and fell off. I think it's a natural proccess. I'm waiting for a light timer so I could start flowering in two weeks. Here's some pics...

Day 24

Yo, aznbeaver, love the name!!

You have just that 1 plant you are about to put in to flower?? Man I hope you get a girl! I have 2 plants right now, not far behind your Day 24 pics, but 1 of mine looks very very ill, the other I have looks similar to day 24 pics you have.
