gamberro I started this grow using the classic paper towel method. I placed the seed between two moist paper towels inside a small container to maintain humidity. After the first 24 hours, the seed had already cracked and showed a tiny taproot. I decided to give it another 36 hours, allowing the root to develop further and become strong enough for planting. By the time I checked again, the taproot was noticeably longer and healthier, as visible in the photos.
Once the root looked ready, I transferred the seed into a pre-hydrated jiffy pellet. For hydration I used water mixed with Root Juice, giving the seedling a gentle boost from the very beginning. Inside the mini-propagator, temperature and humidity stayed stable, and after about 24 hours, the seedling emerged from the jiffy, pushing through the surface with its first tiny leaves.
As the seedling continued growing, it quickly started sending roots through the sides of the jiffy — a great sign of early vigor. When I noticed several roots showing, I moved the jiffy into its final pot. The first watering after transplanting included Root Juice + Acti-Vera to support early root development and reduce transplant stress.
Everything so far has gone exactly as expected — quick germination, strong root growth, and a lively young plant ready for its journey.
More updates coming soon!
