They will most likely be fine but I would suggest putting something dark around the bottom cup - roots dont like light.

Is this root rot? Can it be fixed?
Over the past week I’ve noticed Plant 6 seems to have been stunted in its growth. It also doesn’t seem to be taking up water. All my other plants dry out fairly quickly. This one remains wet for days and days and doesn’t seem to dry out. Can I fix this? Will it kill the plant?

Soil heater
Got a soil heater today, wrapped it around the bottom of my fabric pots. Is that the way I’m supposed to do it? There weren’t any instructions on the package & I’m not big on YouTube tutorials. Ive also been playing music for them during day light. Do any of you do this?

Before my head explodes I need some advice, Out of 5 pineapple one is a little seedling and the others only have taproots and nothing on the surface after a week. I added 3 auto lemons at this point but it looks like I'll only get 2 plants total. How much longer do I wait?

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

Seed not emerging from soil :(
Pre-germed a seed and placed it about 2cm deep into Canna Terra Professional Plus soil, approximately 12inchs below a 240W HPS light. Watering around 0.1 liters a day. The seedling has yet to emerge from the soil. Am I doing anything wrong? At what point should I start worrying?

I brought in a bin of my vegetable garden soil from last season. Very nice stuff - worms and organics, I ran some water through it ph 6.57 runoff. ** The only thing I am concerned about is these little sacs of spores or pollen ( not sure ) ** 😕 Anyone have any ideas ??

Hurricane damage, any hope?
So hurricane Ida came through and wrenched my poor Do-si-do over and did some damage to the roots. Stood her back up and supported but this morning she is hurting. Any advice on how to care for her in her time of need? Is what it is but still sad times. Winds were crazy.

Methods to avoid stunted seedlings
Does anyone have any favored methods to avoid stunted seedlings? It hasn't happened to all of my seedlings, but at least three crops have had this issue. I already use Coast of Maine seed starter, usually in small solo cups, before switching to the main soil.

Cloning advice. Why do I always kill these things?
Hey guys, first time cloning and I'm not sure if I'm correct. Clonex gel, small cuttings (gift). Slapped them into riot rooters and sprayed them with RO water in a propagation kit. Just not sure how often I spray or if the heat pad is to hot, do they even need light? Thanks!

Hey guys! started week 5! She’s looking great, nice and healthy. I’m concerned with the amount of roots growing out the bottom of the pot, should I be worried about this? Or would this be where the roots self prune and this encourages more root growth within the pot? Thanks!

White mold?
My smart pot is turning white at the bottom. There also appears to be roots trying to pop through. I put rocks between the pot and plate for air. I have one blade of grass and a tiny weed popping up, so conditions at the top of the pot are okay. Should be worried?

I used a three gallon pot and filled it, with moist soil, to around 70% capacity. Would this soil be enough for a single Royal Gorilla Auto or Should I add more soil? If the answer is positive then how should I go about it? Any help is greatly appreciated since I am a total noob.
