How to tell if Jiffy Pellet is wet enough

**Potagonia** · 26-02-18, 11:46 PM

Just dropped a few northern light autos and GSC autos in the jiff pellet. Soaked them completely first put them on a rack over a try of water to raise humidity. Got them under 250 MH on the 18/6 schedule.

Anyway how do I know if I got them damp enough?

Did you plant the seed with a tap root or straight in the pellet?

You need to get those nice and warm
Can you put them in a plastic box like a propagator and put them in an airing cupboard?

I germinate my seeds at around 27/28 degrees in a nice humid box.

I was really indecisive about it didn't want to risk damaging the tap root. i got the 250 MH at the top of the tent made it through the night with out drying out completely. I got high hopes. where can I post a Journal Thread?
