For germ I use a paper towel wet with tap water, wring out the extra water, space the seeds out in a big zip-loc bag and push pin it to the wall. After 3 days I switch them into the cloner. I cut the bottom of the plastic net pots off so that it is only the foam collar. This way the roots don't get stuck in the pot and I can transfer directly into the clay leca without disturbing them.
Does anyone know what the strange leaf deformation is? I am guessing it is VPD related or perhaps air movement? I added the big fan after it appeared, and it is run on a lower setting. TIA for the help!
All is nice , think its mechanical from rubbing into something ...
Vpd charts absolutely cant force leaf to be damaged ;)))
Plus plants look super well fed, could be toxicity soon. Be careful.
