First Run In New Growbox F1 Hybrid Automatic

Here we are! More about germination method below. Planted at night from Saturday to Sunday, after 48 hours the girls showed themselves on Tuesday morning. Monday I already tried to make it a little easier for them by sprinkling some water on them and moving the substrate a little bit to the sides. They were too shy to show themselves though and I turned the lights and the exhaust fan off, letting them enjoy the darkness, silence and humidity. Tuesday morning the two more confident ladies showed themselves. I knew their sisters can't be so far away! Again I sprinkled some water on them and voila! Here they were, looking excited, almost happy I helped them reach the nurishing rays of my self built Led chandelier! I hope you'll have a wonderful, short but productive life. About the germination method. After filling the pots tightly with substrate, I flush them completely so everything settles and I'll get an even surface. There I gently lay the seed on the top, just press it on a little bit, don't push it in. Then I'll get some more wet substrate and put one complete 1 cm layer on top. The seed is now locked in place and you have complete control over how deep you want it to be. I learned this technique from German YouTuber "guerilla growing". Hasn't failed me a single time so far! I'm new with perlite though and maybe I put about 10% more than I would've liked to. More drainage I guess. I sprinkled some water on the seeds about 3 times a day to make sure it stays nice and moist.
