First grow- I have to learn

420sulPezzo Hey everyone and welcome to my first diary on this amazing platform. I'm new to the growing world but I'm learning from the more experienced. I've seen a ton of exciting diaries with magnificent plants! I hope to do well here. I come from other Italian forums where the users prefer to criticize every decision you make instead of helping you improve and grow. Here I've already received a lot of help for a clone I'm growing, but I won't be posting it here for other reasons. I put this seed given to me by a grower whom I had the honor and pleasure of meeting in person. He asked me not to make too many specifications since it's a developing genetic variety. I started by leaving it in water for 24 hours, and today I put it in a damp paper towel as suggested by my mentor. Now I'm waiting for the little root to sprout. If it doesn't come out, I'm ready to receive more seeds and try again. I've read a bit around and they say that if the seed sinks, it means it's good, so I'm not too hopeful since it had a nice swim at the bottom of the cup. That's all for now, see you soon with more updates. 4/20 the seed I put in hasn't shown any signs of opening, so I had another one set aside just in case, I'm putting it directly in the paper towel with the other one. 4/21 woke up early today and BOOOOM! Two out of two in the end, now I think I might have overdone it xD let's wait for developments. In the meantime, I'm uploading two photos, homemade lamp and fan, for now I'm managing like this, over time I'll improve my equipment and my growing space. 4/22 They are super long, now I'm putting them in the jiffies they gave me and let's wait for the little leaves to sprout. Any advice is welcome, feel free to leave a comment with suggestions that could improve my growing. Thanks! 4/26 Yesterday while moving the two jiffies, unfortunately one of them broke and I doubt it will recover :( I was very clumsy 😞 Last Update, for now Apparently talking to your best friend can lead to a search at home. I didn't have any particular problems, besides the light and the plant still in vegetation there was nothing in the house, I got away with a pretty long lecture accompanied by a lot of boring scolding. If it had been rosemary, no one would have complained. Anyway, watch out for enemies, but even more for friends ;)
