What's your success rate on putting directly into soil420 fastbuds says to put in cup of water and let float for 2 to 3 days in a dark place between 68-77°f.

I've no idea why people recommend that. It doesnt seem necessary.

90-100% success - depending on the viability of the seeds, and getting the moisture and temps right and not planting too deep.
Use your finger nail as a guide for depth.

Going directly into soil I've had no issues with germination. Root riot cubes are another matter all together since I've got issues with keeping them the right amount of moist.

How do you get in the cultivators club

So I noticed one plants stem was leaning and then growing up so I staked all the plants so they grow straight... And now I got 2 oscillating fans one big tall one up high and matching smaller one down low. I am also ordereing another humidifier and 2 uv light bars...

Idk what is going on but my run off ppm is 6600 and pH is 5.6 @blue @Suki813 sorry I need your help... I just feed them with a ppm of 900 how does the run off 6600 the other pot is reading 4000 ppm and 5.6 ph

I'd be more concerned with how the plant looks.

The high ppm could be some amendments that were added to the soil.

I've never checked Run Off PPMs .. but it's normal for you to input water and nutes at X PH and get a different PH coming out.

If you know what PH you were going in at, you can use this rough guide to calculate your actual soil PH.

PH Calculation Guide by GoAuto6

Rough Calculation Guide:

Here's some good info on ph.....
If your runoff pH is higher than your starting pH, use this equation to determine your soil pH:*
Soil pH = Runoff pH + Difference

If your runoff pH is lower than your starting pH, us this equation:
Soil pH = Runoff pH - Difference.

For example, say your the starting pH of your solution before it goes in is 6.5 and the pH of your runoff is 7.0. The difference is +0.5, so using the above equation:
Soil pH = 7.0 + 0.5*
Soil pH = 7.5

If your starting pH is 6.5 and your runoff is 6.0, your difference is -0.5 and using the above equation:
Soil pH = 6.0 - 0.5
Soil pH = 5.5​

They don't look bad...yet...the top pic is starting to yellow at the tips.
