Ideally you want the taproot to be about 2-3cm long before planting it into the soil (with the root pointing down and the seed up). This paired with proper conditions will ensure fast sprouting! Hope this helps! Good luck and happy growing :)

It’s fine, do it now, do not continue growing it more because you will risk breaking it

First ever grow/germination Hello my fellow weed lovers 👋🏻. This is my first ever grow so any help or advice along the way would be greatly appreciated. I started with 10 Big Yield auto seeds, however 2 didn’t germinate and 1 died not long after sprouting. Is this normal or have I f**ked up somewhere? 😁

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)?

Is growth normally this slow for seedlings? Any advice appreciated.These 3 seeds (of 12) germinated March 19-21; I transferred them to coco coir/perlite soil under 40W full-spectrum grow lights I also use for garden vegetable seedlings. Lights are on 16 hours; off 8 hours, and the seedlings have barely grown in the last 10 days. Is this normal?
