Stretching
The_green_roomstarted grow question 4 years ago
Because my seedling stretched a little during her first few days of life, is it safe to bury a small amount of her stem in the substrate when I transplant in a week or two? I'm using coco and perlite 70/30. Actually writing this down made me realize it's probably a stupid idea 🤣

Hi there!
Yes you can absolutely do it and it is also advices to do so.
When you bury the weak and stretched stem under the soil, you Will get shorter but sturdier plant.
I would advice to bury right up until the cotyledons are only on the surface

Yes, u can do that. Maybe u can also create a "cage" until it grow stronger in case of more stretching.

Help with seedlings falling over and dying :/Could someone please look at my two seedlings and tell my why they are falling over? I planted four golden goat seeds, which all sprouted. However, two have already completely fallen over and died. The one with the makeshift supports was completely flat this morning. Thanks

Should I be worried about the slow growth of my seedling?I'm not giving her too much water at the moment, she's definitely growing and I'm conscious it's only been 3 days since she was put under grow lights but thought by now we would have had more growth

Should I wash the potting soil mix before sowing?Going ahead with my first grow. Should I wash the potting mix before to remove impurities and dust particles, before I sow the sprouted seeds inside? The potting mix contains Coco Peat, Perlite, Organic Manure, Seaweed, and other beneficial microbes. Advice would be appreciated!Other. General questions

Watering seedlings queryHi there,
How much should I be letting the coco dry out for these seedlings?
I just had a failed grow due to overwatering the seedlings and I'm looking for some guidance.
I know there's many factors, but I'm just worried I'll either under or over water again.
Thank you!

This is my first grow so I'd like to be sure I'm not missing anything. Does my seedling look alright? This is about an hour or two after her first transplant. I'm not experienced with spotting nutrient issues so would appreciate some experts casting there eyes on her! 🌱🔎👀

Lamp distance from seedlings? PPFD uploaded in this weeks photos.How far away I should have my lamp from my week old seedlings? I think it has something to do with the PPFD for my lamp (TS600), but I have no idea what it means. The lamp is set right at the very top of my tent now and is 32 inches (81cm) away. See photos in week 1.Setup. Lighting

Solo cups vs clear plastic cups for seedlingsI'm gonna plant sprouts in solo cups, but thought it might be cool to use clear plastic cups (to see when roots reach the edges). Would it be bad to use clear plastic cups? Maybe the roots/soil won't like the light idk?Week 12
