Free_I_growstarted grow question 4 years ago

Organomananswered grow question 4 years ago

No, I don't think you are doing anything wrong, it is just a coincidence. Misting the trapped portion with plain water to soften the "skin"/membrane periodically can help the seedling to open, otherwise once softened you can try to remove it yourself, very carefully, with a toothpick or other pointy "tool". If you decide to remove it by hand, hold the stem in one hand gently before trying to remove the skin/membrane gently with your free hand. If you don't hold the stem gently when removing the skin/membrane, it is possible to decapitate the seedling, and yes, I am talking through experience. Hope this helps,........ Organoman.

I've always gone from root cube directly to 3-gallon pots. I can't compare the difference with transplanting from solo cups because I don't have any experience. Have any of you found a significant advantage to adding an extra transplant? I figure 3-gallon pots aren't THAT big.

How long to pop for soil germination?For those that plant straight into the soil. How long does it typically take to pop and when do you decide that a seed has failed and either plant another or pull that pot from the grow area?
