RickGrimes69 FIRST TIME GROW LET'S GOOO🤩 -Using the "Cup of Water Method" for germination. -Added a squirt of H2O2 to the mugs. Day 4: This type of rapid rooters are kind of weird; roots crawled up. Seems like there are no holes for the roots to grow into. It could be better if I cut a hole at the bottom of the plug(?)

Could it be better if I cut a hole at the bottom of the plug so the roots could've found a space to grow into?

either physical obsticale and it's routing around or you are superficially watering and roots are turning toward greater moisture at the top. really shouldn't have a huge gap in the medium like that. roots exposed to light will differentiate into stem and be useless. you do not need to cut a hole in the bottom. if it's loose, push it slightly down and cover and shape it back to 1 piece of medium instead of 2 halves with a huge gap. When you irrigate, make sure you fully saturate roots can burrow through some pretty hefty material. if you water correctly, gravity and moisture should keep it tunneling down instead of toward the surface. keep it simple.. don't make it complicated.

RickGrimes69 I transplanted the seedlings into the medium, separating them from the plugs since they were not even anchored. Unfortunately, while I was transplanting, I handled my girl #C a little too harshly and ripped off one of her leaves. That's why, as you can see in the pictures, I put a dome on top of her for 24h to keep her stress lower. Hopefully she will recover.
