New Grower New Start-Lowryder Mix

I have FFOF and will cut it. I still have time to pick up new soil. Hoping the bean sprouts. Last one was gone. Waited a week and then dug it up and it was dead.
 
Hey Jackson,

got any pictures of the girls.......
 
Hi Epenquin-

Not yet. Waiting for a germinated seed with tap root exposed to show what she`s made of and come out of soil. I placed her in the soil Wednesday evening. Hoping she says hello world soon.

I will keep u updated.
 
Good Morning Everyone!

No sprouting yet. Put germinated seed in solo cup Wednesday night and as of 4:30am Central Standard time, nada. Hope she makes it through. I have no lights on her yet, just light misting twice a day as Blue mentioned. Hoping not another dud.
 
How are the temps??

Have you got a meter - if not it's the first thing you need to get. Sprouting a bean definately has a learning curve, but with the right temps and moisture - it will grow.

70f min (bit too cold) to 90f max (bit too hot)
I think there was some research that suggested 85f was about right.

If it's too cold where the pot is (is the pot sitting on cold concrete?) you can put a tube heater by it to warm up the soil. That'll help if it's too cold.
 
Hi Blue!

Its sitting in a cup lid at about 70 degrees. Should I put her under a small cfl light to keep temps up?
 
Yeah - Sounds good!!

Also keep it moist - not sodden with water - when it's soaking, the root can just die.
To dry and nothing will happen :rofl:

There's always a balance with growing haha
 
Thats why I love this site:) Do you recommend a auto strain that does not get to tall? My space is limited.

Thanks
 
Best to have a trawl through the seedbanks and see what they recommend. It is also great entertainment to see all the different AF's. Most seedbanks will give height among the options.

eP.
 
Good Morning All-

Well I planted the germinated seed Wednesday evening and just checked on her and she hasn`t sprouted yet. I`m getting disappointed that I have another dud. I know patience is key to growing. I have learned that, but maybe I`m doing something wrong. Once the tap root was exposed, I dropped her in MG Organic Seed Starter.

Love to get your feedback. Is it possible that a germinated seed is just bad? Wrong soil to start seeds?

Thanks and looking forward to your answers.

Jackson
