Sprouting delay. How long do I wait? Are lights on and fans running important while waiting for germinated seeds to sprout? I lightly water the medium.
Germinated autos by paper towel method, & put them in soil 2 days ago. The still haven't sprouted out of the soil. How long should I wait? I'm trying to keep humidity between 60-70% and temperature 20-24C. The LEDS are on 18/6 and the fans are running for the pots. What do I do?

#8 Has a Twin
#8 of the phenotype hunt has twin seedlings. Has anyone had experience on growing out in a larger than normal pot? I will be sure to get a cut of each one. Curios about variances in a single seed.

So I know that you should generally transplant autos just once, as in germ in tissue ect and then put into a small pod and when it pops thru the soil, transplant into its final grow pot or direct to final pot. Can you transplant twice before the final pot…I’ll post a pic below

I was wondering how long do I keep waiting for seeds to germinate. Did I do something wrong I just put them straight into dirt and hp the water to 6.0 and I spray the pots daily and have them under the dome for moisture but now so far one sprouted in 8days.

Germinación o Crecimiento?
La germinación termina cuando se pone la semilla en el sustrato no? Es que apenas tiene cotiledones!🌱🙂 Pd: es una duda un poco tonta, pero quiero ser lo más riguroso posible en mi diario, soy nuevo!🐥
