She's looking good so far. She literally looks like the palm tree emoji 🌴. I started a light feed early in the week and they've taken well to it. There stems have thickened (appositional growth) well enough to stand on their own with the incorporation of an oscillating fan. I'm going to try to incorporate some Real Growers Recharge on Thursday to advance the microbiology of the soil. Food for her soul.
She's got a little bit of unstable genetics rn as you've can see in her leaf production but I lover just as much haha and hopin for a beautiful end product.
Does anybody have any tips/tricks for getting stubborn seeds to pop open during soak. I usually only do a 24-48 hour soak with 24 hour damp paper towel method. If that doesn't work, I usually assume it's a dud, but I'm willing to try anything to get them to go before tossing them. Right now I'm having trouble getting my Mexican Airlines to take. 48 hour soak and no signs of life yet. She's in a paper towel now with tap water presoaked with catalpa leaves. Any feedback/ ideas welcome! Happy growing.
@Leeyum,I would definitely suggest planting it anyway weight from 5 to 7 days if nothing happens by then definitely she's done it but don't give up yet😉
