What’s up Grasscity gurus Though I wish I could be in this forum under better circumstances, I am back for wisdom from the great threads of GC. I am happy to have started my very first grow! I have posted a couple threads earlier this past month describing some of my setup. But I have just recently started germing two spare beans I had out of seperate packs. I just want to know if my girls will make it this sprout. I am following Mandalas method of germination, and for those who aren’t familiar with their method it is; no pre-germ -just straight seed to soil. Now after a few days and just recently placing both outdoors a day or two ago -one has germinated and slightly sprouted, but I think the seed hull kind of inhibited it’s growth before I removed it, so it is kind of drooped, lightly greenish/ yellow and hasn’t gotten any sprouted leaves yet. And the other has yet to respond to germination. I sprinkled a LITTLE bit of EWC again this morning and again this afternoon, just to give them that extra boost, but to any of you grow gods and weed wizards -What else can I do to make sure they at least sprout and reach there true leaves set? Thanks again dudes -hope to hear some of your guys awesome insight! Peace O.Z.
I do the same seed to soil ! Sometimes takes a few days to sprout just be patient . And the droopy one also had that happen just good humidity and good lighting will suffice just let them do there thing !
I hope so, really excited about these girls and can’t wait to see them grow Just Got some more beans today, hoping I get a good germ rate with these ones! Thanks and appreciate the reply bro! Peace O.Z.
You may have damaged your sprout taking the seed hull off they will shed it on their own most of the time. I feel like if a sprout cant get out of her shell then it's probably not going to be much of a plant. Of course there are situations when they need our help. Starting them is on of my favorite parts, hope for the future etc. etc.
Ah, I see. I was just hitting the 5 day mark so I took off the top seed hull since it was blocking the sunlight yesterday morning and the bottom seed hull later that afternoon as well. I think what may have been my issue was that I just didn't put/pack enough of the soil into my pot so they didn’t germinate as fast. But the girl that did sprout already seems to be gaining some color and I see the first set of sprout leaves coming apart. Really hoping she does well this season, supposed to be some KILLER genetics on her Also just popped the new seeds that I got yesterday but this time I added more soil and EWC then last time And I’ll definitely post updates when they are moving along. Thanks, Have a good one dude O.Z.
