The seeds that came out of the tissue pot have been split between the Aerogrow and simply putting them straight into the Growit discs. These little discs work great for pretty much everything else, and they seem to work very nicely for the (single) Royal Dwarf. Out of the 7 originally put into the tissue pot, 3 have gone to the hydro to see if they will germinate, 2 didn't look particularly healthy (grumpy & sleepy), and 2 have been put in the discs and left alone. So far, Happy has popped up and is stretching towards the sun nicely - He looks pretty healthy and is the first out of 16 Royal Dwarf seeds I have gone though over the years to have actually germinated. Dopey is in a smaller pot, as I don't want him to grow too big. I'm happy that Happy is happy :D // 01/04 Well, Happy continues to be happy and is looking good. Dopey is still waiting to sprout I guess - he's in the Growit disc and I have high hopes that he will germinate. I'll give him til the end of the week. Grumpy and Sleepy are still sitting in the tissue pot and have not moved. I'm considering to put them into plant pots, too, but I'd like to see if this method proves successful. The other guys are in the Aerogrow, so who knows what state they're in and I don't want to put more than 3 into that thing, as it's a cramped space. Still 1/4, and 1/7 for Royal Dwarf germination so far. Temp. doesn't fall down much past 16c in the day, and lows of 2c in the night. The sun makes it feel a lot warmer, and that's beaming down direct onto the pots. // 08/04 The last remaining Royal Dwarf seeds haven't popped, so I am going to write them off as it has been two weeks. I'll leave them in the pot for germination for another two weeks, but after that they will go to the birds. Very disappointing that only one Royal Dwarf decided to jump up out of its shell... :(

Hi, Today I noticed a little drooping of the first leaves. Soil is moist so left it alone. This afternoon, the leaves are like seagull wings, and slightly raised around the edges. I'm not sure if this is the way Royal Dwarf are supposed to grow, but it looks like heat stroke.

Looks be over watering to me. Give them some space and keep temps stable between 22-26c, they should bounce back. Can add more perlite in your mix in the future to help avoid any other issues like this, or just use less water. It can be tricky to learn, I still mess it up sometimes. Good Luck!

Does this look like too much light to you..? Been under a crappy Castnoo 54LED pink light for 2 days while the weather has been bad, and the leaves are curling and I think I can see a yellow periphery there? Unsure. Only seen lampburn in pictures, never real life. Crinkly...

@homerjgangia, Thanks HomerJ - I hope they get moving. Hate to lower the success rate of RQS seeds...

Too much water! seedling need to search for water, so the root develops. Great root = great plant. Not on size only, general health. Wish you a great grow!

@Psilocubensis, Hey Psilo - I found something interesting today with this dude - You remember the leaves were going like a seagull before..? The 2nd set of leaves for this guy a week or so ago started to do the same thing, so I had a look and: It seems that if I pop the leaves with a little pressure, they can invert themselves and rather than doing the bird's wing - they will scoop upwards instead, as if they are taco'ing towards the light. This is kinda confusing, but I am thinking that - after seeing another journal where the plant was looking like a brussel's sprout, that it might be simply that it's some strange thing inherent to the breed..? It is only a few leaves that are doing it / have done it, and I would expect that all of the leaves would be showing signs of over/under-watering, no..? Perhaps it is something to do with humidity, as this guy feels a little dry to the touch on some leaves - I think that he needs higher temps, higher humidity and also less light that the others I have him with. Either way, this guy appears to be doing ok, and is really very tiny :p

@Psilocubensis,Seems as if you are right, Psilo..! Happy the Royal Dwarf has been showing signs off too much water already - this soil might not be so good. Tomorrow, if he is still alive, I will remove some and put in some gravel mix to help it drain a little faster.

@Psilocubensis, What do you think about seeds germinating in hydroponics..? I have today changed out the seeds from Royal Dwarf that did not germinate at all, for Northern Lights. I wonder if to germinate them out of the hydro and instead in something else before transferring them... but they are autos and I read to not mess with autos when they get going.

@Foxylove420, Those mushies are loving it in that potting mix for some reason. They shoot up within an hour or so and are gone by the next day.

@Kynareth, Thanks buddy! It's my first time in about 20 years, and I've never used auto's before. I've no idea why the Royal Dwarf seeds dislike the paper towel so much... These 2 are the only ones that have moved, being put into the Growit discs - but when they did, it was quick!

Happy growing mate Don't water to much, cannabis can handle dry environment for a bit but overwater is their enemy NΒ°1 (put your finger in the soil and if it's dry you can water)

@GrowMyPips, You were right GrowMyPips - this potting soil is not draining so well! It absorbs the water so quick that it feels dry, unless I dig down under the fibre cup, which is where I found mud. I am going to repot him tomorrow. His roots are already 12cm long spreading out sideways! Fast little bugger..!

@GrowMyPips, Hey bud, it's tot the water that's the issue with these little guys - it's that they don't germinate. This one has had some strange things going on with it's leaves today. It looks like he's overheating but I can't think why...
