They will survive fam! As nobody said misting lightly helps the cotlydon leaves break free of the seed membrane that coats them. U can gently remove the shell as the leaves open it more. The number 1 cause of this is planting a seed to shallow. Next time try n plant ur seed a touch deeper. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

They will survive longer than the Oilers if there is a NHL playoff. 👍👍 From The White House.

most definitely. first, give them time to push it mostly off at the least... if you see completely developed cotyledons - nice green and lush - the shell is likely propped nearly open and you can help it at that point so photosynthesis can begin. sometimes a little drop of water soaked in for a bit can make it more pliable too. the leaves will continue to work it open... when it is incredibly easy to pull it off by the looks of it.. it's probably okay. the negative impace of planting a seed so the taproot immediately goes down is a greater likelyhood of this happening. plant the crown horizontally, and it'll be a good lever for both upward and downward growth... plus, the shell is way ore likely to be ripped off by soil like it normally is.

Missing Cotyledon Came home from work and 1/2 of one of my cotyledons is missing! Do you think this plant will still survive/produce? I’m doing an outdoor grow so I expected pests but did not expect them this early in seedling/early veg. Should I spray with neem oil this early??

Are these stretching? What should I do for the 2x top that barely sprouted?Viparspectra xs2000. Just moved it to a 25" distance and 50% light intensity hoping it'll help, but unsure if it'll burn them? What should I do? Top 2x seeds JUST sprouted and are just barely above the soil.

How hot is actually too hot. Too many mixed answers around.So I am fairly new to the world of indoor growing, my grow room is the best I can do with in my current situation (limited space) and hasn't had a snag since it sprouted two days ago through soil. But today it hit 93F in there and a leaf started to droop down slightly. Tips?

Pre-grow in 1L pots after germ? (Autofl.)Not sure if i should put straight in the big pots after germ. I’m going to use Batmix, but as this can be overkill of nutritions on seedlings i was thinking either dig a hole in the pot and fill it with lightmix and the rest with batm., or put them in 1L pots of lightmix first?

I took it out of dome as soon as the Cotyledon leaves were fully opened as per usual. Thanks guys I did pluck the seed shell off it but I thought I was very gentle.
