    Take them out of the water, put into damp tissue in a sealed plastic bag/box. Keep warm and dark for a few days and a taproot should soon appear

    The seeds need go from water to paper towel mate 👍 usually after 12 hours i give them a tap and see which sink, once all sunk leave them on the bottom for 12 hours then straight out into wet paper towel in a jiffy. Jiffy inside dvd case somewhere warm, only germed 13 seeds myself but 100% success rate

    Ahhh okay, im not sure on the difference but a lot of people try go organic in soil, meant to taste nicer

    When youre due to feed youll need to leave your water open for 24 hours to give it chance for the chlorine to dissapate

    Also in soil you dont want to be watering everyday, leave it until the top 2" roughly is dry before watering again to give the roots chance to search and fill the pot

    Also if you can, get some great white, massively helps with root development

    Sorry if youve said but are you growing autos or photos?

    I’m growing in autopot system, I’m going to leave my my water standing over 24hrs n then add nutritients..

    Thinkin of soaking my media with the nutritient mixed water n then let it drain off. Then add my plant into the pot.

    What you think?
