The Founders

Yes really easy, with germination you want to keep them moist (not wet) and warm. I always spray them 2 times a day with a spray bottle and keep them on a warm spot like above 20 degrees Celsius will do. When they got there first leaves they only need water in soil there are enough nutrients for the first 2 weeks so just give water and increase amount everyday but give further away from plant every day so that the roots need to grow to get the water (increasing root system). After 2 weeks you start to give small doses of nutrients. They do not need that much just a little will do the trick. I will help you with the right amounts and also explain what nutrients you need to use, when you need to use them and why so that you will understand how the plant functions. I will send you a DM and offer you my help. This is my hobby and I can talk about it for days! Have fun growing buddy! 💚

Salam FrankNichols! 👋 Welcome to the brotherhood of growers! You are starting an amazing journey. 🌿 You already got some textbook advice here from the other growers (especially about not overwatering!). Here is my "Modern Engineering" take to keep it simple for your first run: 🛠️ Roots Leaves: For the first month, don't worry if the plant looks "slow." She is building a massive root system underground. 🏗️ If you keep digging or poking to check, you will hurt her. Trust the process! The "Knuckle Rule" (Crucial): The #1 killer of seedlings is Overwatering. Before you water, stick your finger into the soil up to your second knuckle. If it feels cool/damp: DO NOT WATER. 🛑 If it feels dry: Give her a drink. 💧 The Humidity Hack: Seedlings love humidity (60-70%). If your room is dry, cut a clear plastic bottle in half and put it over the seedling like a little dome. It’s a free mini-greenhouse! 🏠 Don't stress, Habibi. Plants want to grow. Just give them light and water, and get out of their way. 😉 Happy Growing! 💚

​🌟 What You’re Doing Right ​The fact that you are asking for advice before things go sideways shows you have the mindset of a master grower. Most people wait until their seedlings are wilting to seek help. By focusing on the first 30 days—the "infancy" stage—you are prioritizing root health and structural integrity, which is exactly how you secure a massive harvest later on. ​⚠️ Potential Pitfalls & Pro Solutions ​The first month is when plants are most vulnerable. Here is how to spot trouble, fix it, and prevent it from happening again. ​1. The "Damping Off" Menace 🍄 ​The Problem: Your seedling looks healthy, then suddenly collapses at the stem base and dies. This is caused by soil-borne fungi. ​The Fix: There is no fixing a collapsed seedling, but you can save the rest by increasing airflow immediately. ​The Avoidance: Use sterilized potting mix and never overwater. Ensure your containers have excellent drainage. A small fan circulating air (not blowing directly on them) keeps the soil surface dry. ​2. "Leggy" or Stretching Seedlings 🦒 ​The Problem: The stems are long, thin, and falling over because they are "reaching" for light. ​The Fix: Lower your light source or increase the intensity. If the stem is too long, you can gently transplant it deeper into the soil, burying the stem up to the first set of leaves. ​The Avoidance: Keep your lights at the manufacturer's recommended distance (usually 12–24 inches depending on the tech) from the moment the "hook" breaks the soil. ​3. Nutrient Burn (The "Too Much Love" Syndrome) ​The Problem: Leaf tips turn yellow or brown and curl upward. ​The Fix: Flush the medium with plain, pH-balanced water to leach out excess salts. ​The Avoidance: Seedlings are born with enough energy in their cotyledons (the first round leaves) to last about 1–2 weeks. Do not feed nutrients until you see the second or third set of true leaves, and even then, start at 1/4 strength. ​4. pH Fluctuations 📉 ​The Problem: Twisted growth or weird spotting on leaves. Even if nutrients are present, the plant can't "eat" them if the pH is off. ​The Fix: Test your runoff water. Adjust your next watering to bring the medium back to the "sweet spot" (usually 5.8–6.2 for coco/hydro or 6.3–6.8 for soil). ​The Avoidance: Always pH your water after adding any nutrients, every single time. Days 1-7.. Humidity 70-80% RH; "Tropical" vibes Days 8-14 Root Development..Let soil dry slightly between waterings Days 15-30 Structural Growth Introduce.. mild wind and light nutrients.. Best of luck

DER ARE DAYS 31-59 BETWEEN DAT!!!!!

Biggest tips for days 30–60: control stretch, keep airflow strong, don’t overwater/overfeed, clean up the lower weak growth, and stay consistent. Mixed genetics in one room usually need observation more than extra nutrients👊👍

Get a grow tent and grow pots. You've got some good genetics going and you are using great nutrients. Just a small investment in a tent and pots and this is going to be an amazing grow! I would also defoliate the bushy plants a bit for airflow and the lower nodes with the small branches can get lollypopped. That is what I would do tho! Have a nice grow! 💚
