I soaked my seeds in water for 12 hours along with a 12 hour soak for my Rapid Rooter plugs. This was my first grow so I opted for the plugs and I wish I hadn't now. I don't think I didn't put my seeds deep enough but maybe not covering them with a portion of the plug was my issue! In any event, I had 4 of the 14 have issues with helmet head, and 2 of them straight up didn't make it. Those 2 are shown in the couple of photos that are from day 3 after soak. Then a bunch of photos 9 days after originally plopping them in the water, but only the ones that survived. The Vineyard and the Super Lemon Haze still had yet to begin germination at this point.

Grow Questions

martymcfriedstarted grow question 4 years ago
Would it be possible, and/or advisable to install a screen in my grow? I have been trying to encourage the lower bud sites up and in line with the main colas, but I don't want to mess anything up. Also my tallest plants might be a foot tall, so I am unsure what to do.

Looking good! I'd say you could definitely add a screen and would help to fill all the space once you flip to flower.

Check out the Ethos website. Their lead guy has an article on how they recommend germinating their seeds. Lots of other good stuff to read as well. Two of those seeds look like they stretched. Could be the distance of your light was too far from seeds.

@martymcfried, Aw man that sucks. I have 3 fem airplane Glue seeds and now hoping they don’t fail me.

@AccyStoner25, The two that stretched kept their helmets on for far too long, hahah. Being that this is my first grow I had no clue what was going on with them but finally knocked the seed remnants off by moistening them up. Sad to mess anything up but I marked that one down as Lesson #1, "How to deal with seed shells that don't come off easily". I read the article on germination and attempted the Ethos method with the Airplane Glue & Vineyard Bx2 seeds, which I failed to get pictures of, but all the Airplane Glue failed :( I think it had to be bad seeds when both the Vineyard ones popped up easy. I really appreciate the advice and the recommendation to check out their other info! Happy growing 😤
