Blocking roots in biodegradable jars ?
tiasmaaa
started grow question 5y ago
Can I leave them for another week or so in the biodegradable jars? Or does it risk blocking the roots? I can't imagine what size the roots are yet.

Another week should be fine. After that she will start getting rootbound. Over/underwatering is something you'll have to watch closely.

Blätter gucken aus Samen ohne Stamm?
Ich habe 3 Purple Punch Samen gekauft. Eine hat eine es nicht geschafft nach 9 Tagen die Wurzeln aus dem Samen hinaus wachsen zu lassen. Aber diese hat bereits die zwei runden Blätter entwickelt ohne Stamm. Liegt das an der Qualität des Samens oder habe ich etwas nicht beachtet?

Does the grow go slow or I am being paranoid?
Is it me or the plant is growing too slow? The germination also doesn't go smooth. In average 2 hygrometers show 27 C / 50 humidity, the LED lamp is 41 cm exactly from the tip of the plant.

Cotyledon leaf falling off an autoflower while seed husk is falling off
Has anyone ever had a cotyledon leaf fall off of an autoflower as the seed husk was coming off? One of mine did from my sweet mango auto. The 2 first "true" leaves are present and seem to be growing. Just wondering if it will be heavily stunted because of this. Converse away :)

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.

Is she a write-off?
Hey guys, my GSC seedling is about a week old. She had some problems getting rid of her seed head, and I managed to fully remove the seed coating and membrane just over 24hrs ago. Is she a write-off? It’s not looking too good

Preventing bucket heads ?
How do you prevent seeds from getting a bucket head upon germination? I've never had it happen before this grow, but it happened on both seeds this time and I'd like to prevent it in the future.
