Placed 1 seed in a glass jar of water (didnt take pH) and let sit for 18-24 hours. At 18 hours I pushed it down into the water because I saw that it was still floating. It sank very easily so I figured it was good to go. I then placed the seed inside of 2 paper towels and folded them up nicely while making sure the towel was damp but not completely soaked. (You dont want this to dry out but you also dont want this to be dripping wet). I even gave it a few sprays of water (not pH'd) and then placed it inside of a ziploc bag but left it open so that oxygen could still come in and out. I then left it in a dark cabinet for 36 hours. The temp was 72-75degrees in the cabinet and 58% humidity (but this shouldnt have mattered to much due to the fact the seed is covered in wet paper towels). After 36 hours I checked and a 1/2" tap root was showing so I decided it was time to plant the seed in my **BUFFERED MEDIUM (with 5.5pH - Coco+Perlite)**. I planted the seeds no more then 1/4" into the medium and lightly placed the medium over it but very gently. I then put the bottom of a water bottle (with a few holes) over the seed to serve as a humidity dome. The tent has a sustained temp of 72-77F & 60-65% RH.

@Ferenc, Thanks! I really hope she heals up nicely - I know she is stunted a little bit but hopefully I will be able to get past it so I can know for next time what works and doesnt and in turn whoever looks at this will be able to gain that experience as well.

I don't like substrates! there is a very high risk of spoiling the substrate and after that it cannot be fixed

@HiGHLYDiGESTiBLE South Park rules)))) for me substrates are very difficult. I do not use branded fertilizers and therefore constantly get problems with the soil or coco. you can simply replace the solution from the DVC in case of problems. and the substrate needs to be washed, which in my experience is equal to a new grow

@ArthurStotch, 1. I love the south park-esque name lmaoooo so fire..... 2. I am trying to look up substrates but no definition gives me a good understanding of what you mean. Are you refering to the chemical nutes I use or the medium?

I grew 2 of these over the summer they turned out good except I didn't top one which turned out to be a mistake.

The thing about coco/perlite is that it drains really well, so its near impossible to drown anything in it. The first time I grew in coco, i didnt know this and chronically underwatered. definitely do not be afraid to water, and don't let the top 2 inches get dry. What was the source of your coco? was it bag or brick? did you buffer? this looks like it could be lockout from unwashed coco. If things don't turn around in the next few days, I would restart the grow. Don't get discouraged. CocoForCannabis is a great online resource for this stuff.

@ThePotanist, Thanks for commenting ! It was Mothers Earth coco/perlite 70/30 mix - should be prewashed prebuffered but i buffered 2x anyways. with calmag for 8hours a piece. im not exactly sure how i should be watering it so i think i completely ruined it. i think i know what to do this time though. i am going to start a new grow in the next 2 days

You might try watering when the soil is dry to your first knuckle when poking the soil?
