When’s Day 1?

I count day one as when they open their cotyledons and open their first pair of leaves. Until this occurs, they are not really a functioning plant as yet.

That's entirely down to the individual. I like to do day 1 as start of germination because then I know every thing about the journey of that seed. How long it took to germ, how long seed took to sprout, how long seedling took from seed etc. But alot of growers will time it when seedling emerges.

Yea your doing good. not to worry at all.

Thanks for the feedback!! I know I’m probably splitting hairs. Was kinda just curious. Gonna harvest according the trichomes anyway

It’s whatever you wanna do.. no ones got any right to say “such and such is wrong” it’s just a diary but I personally count day one as the day cotyledons open up and expose first two true leaves

I count the first day it breaks soil as #1, anything before that is germination. Does not make sense to count day one when it goes into the ground, as some seeds take longer to pop based on age and strain. Good Luck and Happy Growing!
