My seedling sprouted last night and i think the shell came off too early all the pictures i see of sprouts dont look like this... Will my seedling be ok? or will it die? By the way this is my first ever plant im hoping to start growing shit loads of weed
It's fine. What makes you think it shed the soon too early? I've seen plenty of pics of sprouts that look just like yours.. Your gonna stress yourself out if you are freaking over this. There is a long way to go between now and harvest. No need to fret over every tiny thing.
Yeah i guess im just really paranoid this is the only seed i had (got it out a bag) and i dont want to loose the opportunity
Oh and i thought it came off early because when i firat saw it the two little leaves were white and brown
like @After the shot you still have a long ways to go and panic at the slightest thing will have you not only turning grey too early but could also cause you to jump to conclusions about your plants situation and make you do something that's more harm than good. This stage of life is about the easiest part of their existence. Over and under watering are your only 2 real threats right now. when the pot feels really light its time to water. if you stick your finger gently in the soil avout an inch and it feels dry its likely getting close to time to water. if it feels heavy or is damp dont water.
Thanks for the advice another question tho i have a 9 watt 3000k 800 lumen LED bulb how far shpuld i keep it from my freshly sprouted seedling? Its only about an inch and a half maybe a little more or should i step up the watts every one else is using like 300 watt bulbs oh and heres an update photo does it look healthy?
Close. As close as u can without burning. I’d say 10 inches or so. Put ur hand right above plant. If it’s too hot move it further away. The spectrum ur using is usually used more for flowering. Try to get a bulb with higher number. Like 6400 k would be best for veg. Eagleyedye
Thanks that helps alot been on google like for 2 hours i actually have 2 bulbs would that be enough if i use a splitter and put it about 10 or 12 inches from the plant??
What kind of bulbs exactly? 10 inches is probably the farthest away u would wanna go. Prob can get much closer. Use hand trick like I said. Get it as close as u can without burning ur hand. Are they CFL bulbs or just a led bulb? Eagleyedye
I figured it out on my own lol thanks for the help but i do have one question my seedling is 2 days old and the stem is already 2 inches and 16 cm long is that normal? Or is it beginning to stretch due to little light
