Need Help: White Widow Seeds Stuck After Germination in Indoor Setup – Advice Welcome!

[Checho Maria]

Hey everyone,

I’m reaching out for some advice with my current indoor grow setup. A fellow grower in Gold Coast gifted me two White Widow seeds, and I was really excited to get them started. I planted them directly in soil on October 7th, but they seem to be stuck, and I can’t figure out why.

Here’s a bit about my setup:

• Grow Tent Size: 80x80x160 cm
• Lighting: VIPARSPECTRA light running at 200W, currently set to 40% intensity, positioned about 60 cm above the plants.
• Ventilation: I recently added two small fans to help with airflow.
• Nutrients and Environment: I’m maintaining a balanced environment in terms of temperature and humidity, and I’m keeping a close eye on soil moisture to avoid overwatering.

Despite all this, the seeds don’t seem to be making progress. Does anyone have an idea of what might be going wrong or any tips on how to get them moving along? I want to make sure everything is in the best condition before my next batch of seeds arrives, and I don’t want to waste any efforts.

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions!

October 7th was 4 days ago... These look totally fine and sometimes it takes 5 days or so just to get them to sprout. Relax, plants look fine. Don't stress them out

At that stage the plants are often busier putting out roots vs. leaves; which is what you want.

Not sure of location but it being Oct. might want to get a seedling heat mat to keep those roots warm.
