Am I growing this right
- Thread starter Doctordre
- Start date
I see seedlings popping out of the soil, is this just this morning, or has it been like that for days? If this is just this morning, your up and running . Now you get to worry for another 10-15 weeks, have fun.
For atleast a day or so
They should be upright and dropping the shell in the next 24-48 hours, normally. Probably be upright by tonight. If the shells still stuck to the top by monday, you may want to give it a little help getting it off.
Shall I leave lights on and give water every few hours like mist it
#1 are you using a dome to keep the humidity high? DO NOT water every few hours. Spray the soil around it lightly once a day at most, and cover them with 1/2 a plastic water/soda bottle. You want to see moisture buildup on the sides of the dome. Run a normal light schedule, the light will build up the heat under the dome and create your high humidity atmosphere for the seedlings, they want 70--90% humidity at this stage.
Some like the caps on, some like the caps off the bottle, I tried both ways, cant say I notice a difference.
I forgot to say in my last post. A good way to know when to dampen/water, is when your moisture under the dome starts to recede.
3 times a day for misting
