(Disclosure: gifted seeds)
Total days above ground: negative 2-4 days, lol
Second cycle is starting with a 24 day overlap relative to a 9-week flower estimate for the first cycle. This gives ~3 days to sprout and then plenty of padding for their final pot-up into 5 gal pots at some point after 21 days above ground.
Heat mat is set to 76F. Usually I warm it up before I plant them, but it slipped my mind. Initial soil temp is 60F. I doubt it delays anything, but less than idea all the same. The dome is only in use to prevent a need for irrigation between now and sprouting. Excessive humidity and restriction of gas exchange is not a benefit to seedlings. As they sprout, they will be removed from the dome.
Will update this Germination week with pictures of sprouts before moving on. First vegetative week will be posted after 7 days above ground based on earliest sprout - ~10 days from now.
Nearly lost a seed. It fell into an adjacent seedling pot during the process. It's damn hard trying to discern a seed from the perlite and vermiculite on the surface.
