Seed shell may cause problems?
Learningstarted grow question 6y ago
My seeding seems to be having a little trouble sheding the seed. I am curious as to if I wait a couple more days to see if the mix of the sun drying out the shell and the plant getting stronger push through or if I need to figure out how to get it off.

Hey there 👋
I had the same thing happen lately to one of my Girl Scout cookies.
What worked for me was increasing the moister and humidity. I gently sprayed it every few hours with a mist sprayer, it made it easier for the plant to shed its shell
Happy Growing 🌱

You can either wait. They most always get it off themselves. Or grab a pair of tweezers and just gently help her little hat off. Either way will be fine! I personally help mine out! Happy growing!!!

High alkalinity of water, is it a problem when growing?Is high alkalinity (cca 240 mg/l) a problem if the ppm is normal (cca 250mg/l)? I know that high alkalinity makes for high pH, but does it do anything else, like will it hurt my plant?
Btw, I used strips to check it, not an actual meter.Other. General questions

Will there always be fresh bud growth on an auto-flower (max thc/no couch-lock goal)?ready for harvest bc most of the pistils are mature? Clearly not yet because of new growth? The trichromes are looking like a mix of clear and cloudy, little to no amber yet. I would like to know if there will always be fresh pastil/bud growth even when she’s ready for harvest?Buds. Other

Kaboom toppled over on August 3. I refrained from feeding to allow her time to stabilize and have only watered once since the fall. In your grower opinion, was waiting to feed necessary? thx 😊1y ago
