Hi all, on Saturday I was finally ready to begin my maiden voyage in my newly built indoor grow room. After months of tweaking and change in order to get the humidity/temp/airflow correct, and after doing a short, successful test run with a scrap (probably hermaphrodite) seed, I was ready.
Being a massive Jimi fan, I decided that my single Purple Haze fem seed would be the most appropriate to start my journey. Friday evening the seed is soaked in water for 6 hours and then set in moist toilet paper in a small propagator box, covered with a shirt to block any light and set on top of my PC case (which stayed on 24/7 for the next two days) for warmth. In the interest of full disclosure, being more nervous and afraid of failure than impatient, I'll say that I probably checked in on the seed a bit too often. Fast forward to Sunday, and the only change I see in the seed is the colouring went from a relatively lighter brown/darker gradient to the colour of a ripe, healthy seed - that being a dark, consistent brown.
I decide I'm going crazy and the best course of action is to just plant the seed in the Rockwool, set it in my DWC system under the light, with some lava rocks to lightly cover it and the propagator lid over it.
On Monday I got excited because the seed finally cracked and I could JUST see the white curve of the new stem - no tap root but that could be underneath and I wasn't about to disturb the seed then. The thing is, there has been no change whatsoever since then and its Wednesday, two days later. Is it possible by baby died or slowed down or stunted in any way? Is there anything obvious I did to ruin this?
Apologies for the long post for something so simple, I just felt I had to provide as much info regarding what I did in case there was something obvious and singular that I did to kill the seed (if that is the case).
Thank you all in advance <3
