B-52 in the first week
Hi there, I'm on my 1 week after germination and was wondering if the B-52 in small doses will help the girls with roots and stamp or is it too dangerous since they are very fragile with nutrients at this stage? also, I'm running my first diary and any tip or comments please? 👊

Sprout with seed cover
When they sprout with the seed cover still on, is it better to leave them alone to outgrow it or help them by trying to pull it off? How many days until you should start worrying or taking action? Thanks!

Plant stress
Did I stress the plant too much? I accidentally did not release it in schedule 18H. The timer of my plant was running 24H for the beginning of growth. I know, too stupid.
