I lost a couple of seedlings, and had just gotten the Bobby's Widow which is a fast finisher (53-65 days, 57-60 average), so in the tent she (hopefully) goes.
Seed soak, 24ish hours - spring water + hydrogen peroxide in a shot glass on heating pad
I tried a hybrid planting method this time by direct planting not in the soil, but in a peat pod that I then planted. Basically just gave the seed a pocket of fast drying material in case the soil was too saturated. I had damping off issues in the last earthbox attempt, I thought this might protect the seedling a bit by allowing it to dry faster than soil. This also worked better to hold the Mykos (mycorrhizal innoculant) and get the tap root in direct contact immediately.
Both Bobby's Widow seeds cracked easily during soak and had exposed tap roots when planted. Both emerged from soil after 18-24 hours.
I've listened to @FullDuplex on a few podcasts and he encouraged planting more than one in a single container. Maybe an earthbox jr is pushing it if both turn out female, guess I'll find out - it's for science!
May be able to determine sex at the end of the week, supposed to be 12-14 days and today is day 10.
