Put the seed directly in the final medium and wait 3-4 days mine pop up on the third days always. And till now it's a 100% success rate

Too much water on Jiffy! You should let it moist, and take away excessive water.

I keep my seedlings in water till a half inch tap root appears then I plant them in the soil. Sometimes they can take up to a week or two to germinate. But at your stage I would throw them in some soil and water

Seeds dried out during germination?If your paper towel is dry for a few hours while the seeds are germinating and they’ve just cracked is this bad? Will they bounce back? I watered them straight away when I saw that the paper towel was dry.

Any prepping before planting germinated seeds Is there anything that can be prepped before going in soil? Do the soil need any nutes before being planted? Would solo cups be best or 1 gal pots?

First ever grow/germination Hello my fellow weed lovers 👋🏻. This is my first ever grow so any help or advice along the way would be greatly appreciated. I started with 10 Big Yield auto seeds, however 2 didn’t germinate and 1 died not long after sprouting. Is this normal or have I f**ked up somewhere? 😁

Germination struggle I’m at a stand still in my germ process. The seed popped and showed a taproot, so I put it in my perlite. After a week, no change. I gently removed and put back into germ thinking I didn’t germ long enough. Am I dead in the water?
