Simply soak the wool in dechlorinated water at the desired PH for 24 hours. After 24 of soaking your free to pop a seed in there, take some cuttings, or do a transplant what ever it is that you are planning on doing with the wool ☺️

How long to keep plastic covers over seedlings
How long does everyone keep the cover on their seedlings before exposing them to the flow of air via fans? Some people remove the covers as soon as they pop. Others keep them on for a couple of weeks. Let's start the conversation :)

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?

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)?

Blocking roots in biodegradable jars ?
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.

Struggling Dude
Hey, my friend's buddy is 3 weeks old, but still struggling. I think it's cause of the genetics or the poor soil. Should we keep it and have hope for him? We love him and we hope for a chance 😭
