Would it make a difference if you did the shot glass soak for 24 hours before putting in the rapid rooter?

 

[pop22]

Yes it would. However this is a test of direct to soil, no soaking at all.

Keep those pellets in some water
Man don't forget! And looking good! Are you going to wait for the roots to be busting out before putting them in full soil? That's the best way with photoperiods. By busting out I mean tons of white spikes all pushing through the pellet hard.

The number one killer for any plant in a jiffy pellet is letting them dry out. They'll suck up so much water as they grow, so leaving a half inch of water in the tray is essential for peat pellets & peat pots n

Actually, I'm going to do something I almost never do....... Toss them! I simply have no place left to put them as I have about 26 plants at various stages right now! Or maybe a friend may want them we'll see.
