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.

seedling discoloration, leaning toward center, brown perlite despite no nutrients so farleaves of these seedlings look weird, almost looks like light discoloration, but they also seem to be leaning toward the middle of the box for more light. Also, the perlite is turning orangey/brown, just got a new light and dont have much experience with LED or growing in general

How deep can I bury stalk during transplant?Hi! I'm going to up-size my seedling to a 1 gallon pot this week. How deep I safely bury the stalk? It's currently 7cm from soil to the cotyledons. Could I bury all the way to the cotyledons or is this too much stalk to put under ground? Thanks for your advice👍

Runnoff measuring results are not what I expected.Hello, I have a question. When you look at my diary, I find my runnoff measurments to be concerning. Why do you think my PPM is so high and my pH so low? How do I measure my runnoff correctly? Do I filter it before reading or do I let it wait?

Stretchy seedlings...worried!Hi, I have 5 seedlings on day 7. 2 of them are going fine but the three from ditch passion were very stretchy though. Likely due to having the light to far away. Take a look, any advise would be great. Cheers all!

Buon giorno weed doctors, please help understand the issue, maybe smb has seen this before. I lost two seeds of the same cultivar to the same symptoms...TYTwo seeds, same cultivar, 1 week difference, both pop neck bended with white woody spot at the base of one of the cotyledons. Doesn't spray the leaves, the membrane wasn;'t getting off w/o help. And I know it's not substrate - 2 other breeders germinated 100% and look healthy. TY

Cover seedling for increased humidity?1. Does it make sense to cover the seedling with a cover (bottom of a plastic bottle) to increase humidity or should i remove it (e.g. for better air circulation)?
2. Should i switch on a fan that moves the air a little bit (pointing it above the plant)?Setup. Seedling

Why are my seedlings so leggy when they get enough light?I added pictures from 4 days after germ and wonder why my seedlings are so leggy (~5cm). I already filled it up with soil and they would be 10cm by now if I didn't. First 2 days was 12-14 DLI and since yesterday am giving them more light than many guides say: 250-270 PPFD, 18 DLI
