Trying to get a few more plants going. It’s been a week. I dont Usually have any issues getting them going but for some reason I’m having problems with these. The one that has popped through the dirt has remained the same for two days straight. The other didn’t even pop up but it looks dead to me. Thoughts? Opinions? I dont Know what happened. Thanks for any help.

Ahh I wouldn't have pulled her, could tell she was starting a root base... Just takes a little more time sometimes.. The one with the seed shell on, I'd leave her to it hopefully it will fall off when she has a stretch. Just Try and have abit of patience.

well shit. I figured after a week she wasn’t gonna pop up through the soil. I left the sprouted one intact just to wait and observe since it at least made it this far. Hopefully she opens up a bit in the next few days.

Yeah man I had one that took 8 days I kept the soil moist had a little dome over and waited.

thanks man. I’ll keep all that in mind. At least i have more seeds on hand so I’ll just give it another try.

Patience. That's the advice. Imagine if you got killed because you hadn't grown in two days after birth, lol.. With any and every seedling.. The work and growth in happening under the soil.. Not on top. So it may not be noticable, but growth is happening. If the shell gets stuck, try spraying it with water.. Or using tweezers to help it off.

Ive had seeds pop several weeks after planting. I just plant a second seed in the pot if I think 1 has failed. Then before you know it you have 2. Over\under watering, too hot of soil (if its pre charged ) and over feeding with neutrients are usually the biggest culprits in seedling stage.
