I am officially losing my MoJo. Tried germinating (3) different seeds (3) different times in Root Riots. Nothing. Never had this issue before. I'm doing it the exact same way I always have. The only thing different is that it is a new bag of riots. GRRRRRR!! I swear there is either a Voodoo Curse on them or someone switched my Rhizotonic with poison! Going to try again. This time I will soak the seeds for 24 hours, skip the paper towel, skip the riot, and just drop them into a moist cup of coco. This mom is on a tight budget, and cant afford to lose any more seeds. I have (2) DP Auto Mazar seeds left that were given to me by a friend, and that's it. Sigh.



XOXO

I feel that, sometimes it seems germinating is the hardest thing about growing. lol

Where do you put the root riots once the seed is in them?

EDIT: PS your posts have been very helpful to me along the way.

Be sure to PH the root riots in 5.8 water, then squeeze out a little of the water. They can sometimes hold a bit too much. Then place where they will remain a constant 80°F. I have an oil filled heater and I heat my entire space to 80°F with 60%+ RH. then I plant 3 seeds for every two plants I want to grow. Check them for water content by lifting them. If they start to get light spray with water but don't get them soggy.

Thanks hon! I think I figured out what might be going on. I had (2) bulbs in my T5 burn out and I didnt know. That is why the temps went down in the veg tent from 82 to 73-75. (T5 hangs real real low, and I never thought to look at bulbs, doh, blonde moment!!) I think temps were a little too low for the babies to germ. I ordered new bulbs on Amazon, and in the mean time I pulled out my seedling heat mat~ lets see what happens!!

I love my seedling mat. I control it with the same Inkbird that later controls the whole growdrobe temp. 30C and boogie.

Thank you!!...I put them right into their cup of coco, in the veg tent, under the T5 light.
Just saw that my T5 had 2 blown bulbs, could be the lower temps working against me.
Going to give it another shot on a seedling heat mat I have
XOXO
