Seed shell on plant stem

drosky420 · #1 (**permalink**) 11-20-2006, 02:33 AM

The seed shell had fallen off of one of my plants within the second day of sprouting. But on the other plants its shell somehow got lodged onto the stem. My plants have been growing for 4 weeks or so and it still hasn't fallen off the stem. I just wanted to know what i should do with it? Should i crack it off or should i just let the stem naturally crack it off? Is it harming the plant at all?

Carefully take some tweezers and knock that sucker off. I can't believe you have waited 4 weeks to do anything. Most people worry by the second day lol. How big is this plant?

Well I figured that it would naturally fall of cuz the stem will get thicker and crack it off but thanks.

The plants like 8 inches tall and its growing great so i didn't worry about it, i figured it would just naturally crack off.
