Seed shell is still covering plant 2. The plant didn’t seem stable, so I decided to leave it for a day or two to see if the plant grew enough that I could remove it. Is that the right corse of action? Any tips, tricks or best practices for handling this??
I would just let it go a couple more days as it should open up! It definitely looks alive! Sometimes they come up before all the germination is done! There’s a membrane inside of the seed, so I wouldn’t force it off just let it go and once you can see green gently try to pull it off! Good luck 🍀👍
New to indoor growing. Set up a 32x32 Vivosun tent. Currently have a giixer 1000w light, but wasn’t feeling the coverage was good enough for several plants. So I just ordered a second one. Do you think 2 giixer 1000w leds is ridiculous overkill?
Any thoughts appreciated.
Let's see. Your area is 32" * 32" = 2.67' * 2.67' = 7.12 sq ft. You need 30 to 40 real led watts per sq ft; so you need between 213 to 285 real watts. Two of those 1000 watt giixer will give you 220 real watts, which will be just over 30 watts. So no it is not overkill, it is barely enough as it is.
Glad you sorted the seed shell issue. I had the exact same thing happen to me with my FastBuds GSC. Required a little bit of tweezer surgery to free the girl from her shell but now she's cruising along loving life :)
