April 29 started germinating according to the following way; 2 plates with kitchen paper in between, with plant spray well moisten. Seeds in it and plates on top of each other. Stable temperature and humidity is very important for proper germination. I used a seedling mat from Ali, on it 2 oven grids, plates on it so that there is no direct heat conduction otherwise they will get too hot again. Plug the mat into a thermostat controller and set to 21C and measuring point of controller inside 1 of the boards done. Tea towel over it. According to this way of germinating, Sensi Seeds also gives a 99% germ guarantee. If they do not germinate, they will reimburse your seeds. 2 May 99% germinated.
Nice job. I had a similar experience trying to grow lots of autos…seems like more can go wrong with autos, more liable to be stunted by a cold overnight temperature, etc. Cheers.
@Northern_Ent, yes autoflowers are very stress sensitive. Even moving the plant to another spot in the garden during flowering felt like stress was my thoughts.
