Do we need intermediate Transplants?

1Right_Anglestarted grow question 6y ago

When planting seeds directly to soil, Is it necessary to re-pot them into medium-sized containers... or does it make any sense to go directly to larger, final pot?

With autos I think it’s best to go straight from your starter pot into your final chosen pot size. Potting up multiple times is better suited to normal photoperiod type plants. The reason for this is minimal transplant shock slowing growth and not inhibiting its root growth. Happy growing buddy👍

Same as below—- if you plan on stressing the autos to go longer and train them, folks do two plantings—- otherwise, start in the final pot. ✌️🏻💚🌿

Hi! I definitely agree with Esoteric_growing. Autoflowers prefer as little stress as possible, which is why they recommend planting them directly in the final pot. With photoperiod types, you can indeed do this, as it will stimulate root growth even more. Keep growing! 👌

Blätter gucken aus Samen ohne Stamm?I bought 3 Purple Punch seeds. One of them didn't manage to grow roots out of the seed after 9 days. But this one has already developed the two round leaves without a stem. Is it due to the quality of the seed, or did I overlook something?

Folded Coly Leaves, No Seed.My “coly” leaves are folded shut, almost like a duck bill, no seed, and I’m able to gently separate the leaves apart, but it “snaps” right back down. Should I leave it alone and hope for it to grow out of it? Or should I intervene, and how so?

3/6 seeds not coming above ground After two weeks of having seen sprouts coming out of all 6 seeds between paper towels, I've only seen 3 come above ground. Should I wait just a bit longer, or carefully clear away the direct and check what's going on? Maybe they're growing upside down (had it once before)?
