Lights and germination
MrsGreen_98
started grow question 5y ago
Do I keep the lights on during germination?? The seed has been in ph balanced water for 24hours. Planted seed directly into palgron lightmix soil with plastic bottle top over seed to creat moisture dome.

No, Keep it dark until you see the seed pop out.

Germination Ventilation Question.
What kind of schedule for my extractor would you recommend for the germination stage, please :). I have left it off so far to let the humidity build in the tent because the pots are not covered. Thank You.

So I know that you should generally transplant autos just once, as in germ in tissue ect and then put into a small pod and when it pops thru the soil, transplant into its final grow pot or direct to final pot. Can you transplant twice before the final pot…I’ll post a pic below

Germinated - Should I move them to the tent now?
One of my 5 seeds has sprouted her first leaf! I've named her Astrid. Should I move her to the tent now, or wait till the others have sprouted? (They're currently next to an Aerogarden light.)

Anybody experienced this and able to turn it around? I think it’s heat distress. I replanted it

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

Autoflower Germination
This is my first time growing autoflowers. While both seeds popped, one opened up “normal” the other has remained partially closed. I am starting to see hints if green. Is this normal? Do I just need to remain patient? It’s been less than a week since they popped

Old seeds
Hello. My grandpa used to travel with the led zeppelin and recently gave with a bunch of seeds he's collected over the years from the 60s-80s. However, I can't seem to get any of them to germinate. Are they dead? Any way to bring them back?
