New grower, ready to learn, & need help...lot’s!!!

My plan
- use the paper towel method after the seed sinks or opens in 18-24hrs.
Any tips or advice?

- plant seedlings in individual little pots or Styrofoam cups; I think I ruined the jiffy pellet in my kit by soaking it, before I soaked the seed. :sad: LOL:wall:

- transfer seedling to 2gal pot outside; I’ll need to know what type of soil, fertilizer, and grow nutrients to buy in order to grow the other to strains. Any tips or advice?

- supplement lighting, if needed. But, I don’t want to blow cash on unnecessary on things. Any advice?

I started with a 2gal grow kit from PotForPot & a mix pack of auto flowering seeds from ILGM. I’ll be growing in a fabric pot, outdoors, in Southern Cali. :d5: Thanks, in advance!! :d5:

Day 1:
So... my newbie ass was anxious to get started!! Let the journey begin!!

I decided to combine methods; jiffy pellets, paper towels to prevent drying, then right into soil.I’m only using 4 of the15 seeds. If I f’this cycle up, I’ll be ready for the next.

Hopefully, my little babies make it!!

I already decided to use the Jiffy pell
 
Day #2
I took you guys advice and checked the ph, 6.2, and added nutes to water.

You can see the Amnesia Haze in my jiffy pellets looks to have already started opening. YAY!!
 
Day 3
I watered each with 1TBS each. Wet napkins with same nutes/water mix to maintain moisture.

Day 4

My babies are growing!!!! :cooldance:Ahhhh!!!:yay:
Each of the three I placed in store brought jiffy pellets have sprouted. I haven’t seen anything from the one in PotforPot’s jiffy pellet.

I read that the seedings should get some light.:confused1: So, I placed them in a closet under a full spectrum light about 18-20in away.

Any advice on how to proceed from here? Light schedule? When to transplant?

Day 5
After a 20hr vacation under the light my babies look GOOD!! So, I transplanted them into their homes!! :yay: The seed that I used the PotforPot grow kit and instructions on is not doing so well. I placed in back in a water bath; it sank to the bottom. I’m going to leave it for about a day and see what happens!!:goodluck:
