Grow QuestionsSeed Soaking

Seed Soaking

Bflo38started grow question 3 years ago

I have soaked my seeds overnight. Should I let them soak until they start to sprout? Or should I plant them after 24 hours. I received my seeds from a friend I do not know how old they are.

If after 24 hours your seeds sank I would transfer to moist papertowel till taproot is 1/2 to 3/4 in. Make sure to put papertowel in darkness at around 75°-80°f.

I let me be soak until they pop and the root shows ever so slightly. Then I’ll transfer to wet paper towel for 1-2 days, let the tap root come out to about 1/4” before you plant.

I like to get them planted before the tap root emerges. The tap root is very fragile and if you break it the seed is dead so I like to get the seed in place so it can sprout and grow without being disturbed or broken. Of course this means you have to wait a few more days to find out if the seed is/was viable.

Lights on or off during germination?Just put my seeds straight into the soil for germination. Should I turn the light off during this step at all? Or does it even matter?. Right now I'm running it 24/7 but not opposed to turning it off a couple hours if it doesn't hurt the germination. Want to save my lights.

How important is the beginning stage of a feminized plant If I would plant my feminized seeds early but keep them inside for the frost, would this be benefitial? I know the importance of a good start within a autoflower, but is this the same for feminized or do they always recover without growth stunt?

Any chance of survival?I had a plant that wasn't sprouting so I dig around and found a VERY thin root coming out of it, 1st picture. I thought it was damping off, but I still buried her. 2nd pic is from yesterday (2 days after the first) and the 3rd is from today. Is there a chance she's still alive?

Avoiding dumping off Hi guys! It's been a while! I'm trying to get back in the game, but I got a HUGE problem: I lose all my seeds to dumping off. I've tried different substrates, different sizes of pots, different weather, to no luck. Is there a fungicide I can use? (Continue)
