1.I had 3 pop 18 hours right away from floating in the water.
2. 2 were in a paper towel that did nothing so far after 18 hours.
3. Placed paper towel seeds in water for a few hours to see if we can get them popped.
4. 2 seeds are germed and ready to go, have been planted. One in fox farms happy frog and one in a riot rooter as an experiment. We shall see who comes about first.
Doing 12-16 hours of light.
5. After 48 hours, all 5 have popped and 2 of them are already breaking the soil with their first 2 leaves. Let's go!
6. Day 3 - 72 hours later - 2 of the seeds have sprouted their first 2 leaves and are above the soil! *excitement ensues*
7. Day 3 (continued) UH OH! I just realized my paper towel doesn't have a seed in it. I checked on the floor and found it, the taproot has gone back inside the seed, I'm worried I may have killed it. I planted it in the Root Riot anyway and I'm hoping for the best. :/
8. Day 3 (continued) continuing 18-6 light.
Everything is going well! Growing well and can't wait to introduce nutrients. Added 2x 100watt CFL to the mix and waiting to see results. Week 2 should be interesting. These are 4 different plants by the way.
My #1 plant is huge and doing amazing. Looks like loose soil is the way to go, not ever using root riots again- all the small plants were planted in root riots, but they’re catching up!
