Dropped 4 seeds into distilled water July 11. I pre-watered the four pots, 1.5 gallons total adjusted to 6.5 PH with 1 ml/gallon Superthrive. Full pots upfront should increase RH for the seedlings. July 13 100% germination, all fat white shoots about 1/8”. Planted them and covered all with small humidity domes. Update July 19 - All four up 4 days ago. Pots are still heavy down low, just giving them a small drink each day. Temp ranges 82-66F. Nothing much to report...a good thing. Day 7 since all four up...end of Week 1. Looking good so far, not much to report yet. They will get their next deep watering with first organic veg nutes in the next couple days. No sign of F-gnats. I add about an inch of super chunky perlite to the bottom of my pots, which I raise up with my fancy pot lifters for better airflow. I will add a third fan to the cabinet floor once the canopy starts to build.
