Let's go (14march)plant seeds after 48 h in paper towel,2 of them had root but one just about to sprout but i plant them all
After 3 days(17 march )two of them poped up from the soil but one is trying
Hi guys
I showed 3 seeds in paper towel in a countainer
2 of them sprout and have tap roots but one is not sprout but i saw the tip of the seed became white a little bit. So should i wait for third one or plant them all or just plant 2 of them and let the last one incountainer
plent them when the stem has portruded to a proper length, but seeds germinate with same or better percentage simply planting them, so you could technically put them in at any point and it'll be fine, because it's totally unnecessary to use a paper towel, lol. I think people just like to think they are donig something extra special for the plant but really it's just self-fellating.
Just do direct-to-substrate which has fewer steps that introduce risk and not worry about it at all. Roots should enver be exposed to light nor touched with dirty fingers. A recently germinated plant that deems the local environment too harsh (some sort of feedback loops etc) will simply stop growing. They are fairly delicate and no reason to man-handle them or worry about needless exposure.
What (1) phase you are in and (2) the specific genetics of the strain and (3) the type of medium all come into play. Seedlings are temperamental and vulnerable, vegetative adult plants can take a beating, and flowering plants are somewhere in-between with temps. The genetics comes into play for example, is this genetic display something of a parent or grandparent that is naturalized in Alaska or the rainforest? Lastly, something that is being researched now, is medium in this area. Essentially what the research is showing is that the root zone health and temperature is much more important than foliage temperature. A healthy living soil web and a robustly thriving root zone has shown capabilties such as withstanding 100F+ days (recall this from a Dr. Bugbee video a while back).
Is it fine to take my seedlings inside at nights but put them out in days for first 2 week of their life? I don't have growing lights. the weather is going cold for 3-4 days and after that everything is going to be al
Yes it's ok to bring your plants in at night if the temperature drops too much, especially in the first few weeks of their life. I bring mine in as long as they are in cups, once in pots they stay out. Usually by then nights temps are 12°C or higher
