Hi #LegalizeLiberty420,
First let me start off by saying I'm happy to hear that the rest of your grow is taking a turn for the better. Secondly, the Royal Queeen NL Auto sounds like a fantastic choice for starting a grow with. I have that on my short list for a future grow I'll be doing.
Now, let's get to the task at hand:
1. Germination: I've tried every germination method out there! The method I finally settled on is the 'shot glass' method. I take a shot glass and fill it about 3/4 full with Perrier water. I drop my seeds in and place the shot glass on a seed germination heating mat in the corner with a coffee mug turned upside-down over the shot glass. 36 hours later the tails are wagging and ready to transfer to soil. It works every single time I start a new grow!!
2. Soils: I originally started growing with just OF and realized that it had a harsh effect on the seedlings. They would start off fine and then suddenly go limp and lean over and ultimately die. I then realized that the OF runs a bit hot for seedlings to get acclamated to. So now I also add Happy Frog to the mix, now I'm always using a 50/50 mix of the 2 products. If you wamted to add more organic mojo to the mix, you could add 1/4 Light Warrior, which I hear works very nicely as well. Since making the 50/50 mix switch I haven't had a casualty.
I hope this info helps a little. Good Luck on the rest of your grow and I'll be tagging along to see how everything turns out. Sending some positive green karma your way!!
