I stick my plugs straight into a hole in the soil and cover up like normal. Never had a problem. I've used rockwool, root riots, & jiffy pellets. Now I just fill seed trays with coco coir and press it in. Way cheaper.

Strange leaves on seedling
Hi everyone, I started those two a day later than the others, the cotyledons grew normal but the first set of leave is quite strange. The leaves don't grow opposite, but point on the same side... there are also some yellowish spot on them. I put a photo of the others to compare.

please look at my seed 3 days after germination and tell me if she is a goner
my germination pot fell while being moved. one seed got out but it wasn't rooted yet, I put it back in. do you think she will be okey or do I germinate another one? I damaged the tip of the root when putting the root in the hole.

Seedling Stunted
Week 2, day 16, the first plant to sprout (Green Fire) still only has it's first leaves (day 8 with cotyledon's). Other plants (separate strain) have now sprouted and surpassed the Green fire in terms of having true leaves. What's going on here?

Sooo.... What pot do I start from with the auto's? Some gave me the advice to put them directly in a big fella... People agree disagree? I've got some 17l, some 7l and smaller pots.

Can a 1000w LED grow light be closer than 60cm (24") to a seedling?
Different sources are saying: 1000w LED light should not be closer to a seedling than 60-75cm (24"-30"). The seedling should be getting 5000-7000 lux, 100-300 PAR (PPFD 18h) and 12-20 DLI. Question: Can I put the light closer at ~40cm, dimmed to match the needed lux, par and dli

Is this Shell membrane crucial to life? Will this bag-seed Seedling survive?
Will it survive? The seed was pried open with saliva and pruners once it broke soil. I see some brown (what I suspect to be) membrane that maybe needed to stay with the cotyledon.

Do I need to have my light turned on to start my germination!?
Just wondering if I need to turn the light on in my tent whilst I germinate, I plan to soak in water then possibly transfer to a paper towel after or into my final pot, so in short does the light need to be on for the 3 day germination period?

Seedling leaf tips
Yellowing tips appeared in the last 12 hours. I've been using a weak solution of root booster but I'm not sure if the discoloration is from nute burn or deficiency. Once roots are established I'm planning on putting her in a DWC

Transplant seedling to 3 gallon or 5 gallon fabric pot?
As I wait to germinate, seeds will go to rapid rooter, then into coco, into solo cup. Assuming I make it to a two week old seedling, from there, what size fabric pot should I transplant to? 3 Gallon or 5 Gallon and why?
