I was thinking the same thing about needing more water. Cheers for leaving a post. I figured it's better to under than over water incase you drown them. I think I'll lightly water them now and then do the bottomless paper cup tomorrow morning.

Oh and yes the soil wasn't bone dry by any means. It was slightly damp.

Can anyone tell me if there is any danger of suffocation if i cover the soil with a plastic bottle please?

Nah.... just get it off as soon as you see poppage. The seed is like a little bundle of amazingness with everything it needs for a solid 10 days or more built in, minus water. It really doesn't need much of anything besides a warm start and almost 100% humidity. I am a firm believer in the little starter kits that are available just about everywhere: (2 piece plastic starter tray with cell inserts and clear lid, starter plugs and a seedling heat mat.). You can easily keep these at proper moisture levels and use little squares of plastic kitchen cling wrap/Saran Wrap to keep the moisture up on any late bloomers. You wanna remove the top as soon as the first one sprouts, and use the squares of cling wrap to keep the rest moist. Pull it off as soon as they pop. I LOVE the convienance of the plugs, and they buy you a few days without oversized containers everywhere.

Evening of Day 2 since planting in soil

Lightly watered and makeshift humidity chambers from water bottles.

Hoping to see them pop tomorrow

As long as the domes have moisture on them , I leave them. If not, I mist the dome once a day.

Day 3

Today is a good day.
( Thanks to @Rollin_along and @Need4Weed )

We have life!!

I've given them a light mist as the soil isn't dry enough to water yet

I'm setting up some temporary lighting as we speak, I'll post another update later today.

Cheers,

OK so can somebody tell me what to do please I'm panicking... they're both bent. One is at a right angle and the other totally doubles back on itself. I tried to prop them up with a cocktail stick but they're not pliable. Ugh!

I don't want to man handle them too much but at the same time I don't think I can just leave them. Maybe the one at a right angle will sort itself out now it's got a light on it but the other is completely bent over. Please help if you can

 

[Gatti1605]

Okay so I assume the reason they bent over is that they grew fast over night and stretched a lot looking for light in the dark. The one fully bent must have grew taller and it's roots couldnt handle it.

Research online told me that bent is okay as long as it's not broken I just need to train them to grow up.

Like my previous post said, sticking a cocktail stick in and trying to prop them up had no luck. My solution was too pack some soil up on one side of the pot and stick the cocktail stick horizontal in the soil and under the seedling. I then am using a weight to keep the stick in the same position.

Oh also before I did this I added more soil in general so the seedling is more supported.

I have a fair amount of hope for the one which was at a right angle though I'm not sure if the other one will make it.

Its ok! They come out of the medium like that! Just put em under the light and they open up and turn green!
