Like an idiot I let the paper towel dry up while I was asleep, I'd say maximum 4/5 hours, as soon as I woke up I checked it and added more water but are my seedlings fucked anyway? They all seem to have opend slightly but yet to show their tap root. Thanks

Fuzzy mold seedlings
I’ve been getting the white fuzzy mold on my freshly popped seedlings after I put the in new HP pro mix/earth worm casings soil. I use a little rooting powder but other than that nothing else. I plan to pre spray next time with neem oil. Will this help with the mold/damping off?

Is she a write-off?
Hey guys, my GSC seedling is about a week old. She had some problems getting rid of her seed head, and I managed to fully remove the seed coating and membrane just over 24hrs ago. Is she a write-off? It’s not looking too good

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?

Heat mat during germination
Does anyone use a heat mat when germinating autos? Is it possible for the heat mat to overheat the taproot as it pops out of the husk and into the paper towel? this may have been the case with my second seed. Thanks

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? 😁
