    Default Worms?

    Hi guys I've been really trying to get a green crack auto to grow but 3 out of 5 seeds so far have done nothing I've tried all sorts of things I've managed to germinate 1 ( really slow) but it's been 2 weeks and it's not really growing nice and green still just not growing. Tried another with paper and plate method got the tail to pop out seed, planted it 4 days on nothing so I moved the soil from over it gently to see its not moved? The temps are 26 high 20 low humidity 50 /60 % they have a heat mat underneath the pots to keep them warm so I don't think it's a environmental problem. I've checked the seed and saw a small white worm attached to the seed so I'm thinking maybe this could b the problem I'm not sure cause I'm still a bit of a rookie lol but also I'm using John inns no2 I have used it before and had success but maybe it's a bad batch well I'm gonna change the soil for the last 2 and was wondering any recommendations I use bio bizz grow Bloom and advanced nutrients big bud for nutes, any help is appreciated.

    eh small white worm looking bit coming out the end of the seed? could that be the tap root making a show out of the seed ? dont touch with you fingers it will stop the seed
    dead

    nothing wrong with compost you dont need to change it all u just need to learn

    if u dont know what your doing the best seed method is imo

    root riot or similar sponge type cubes wet them drop seed in about 4mm down ish tear off tiny bit from the bottom and put it in the hole of the top over the seed wedge it in gentle like , then when seed starts to move that little bit moves and u know the seed will show shortly , be patient keep it warm but not hot 20/21c is fine u can use a dome over them until u have a green top then remove to stop damping off from happening from to high rh it very simple but patience if theres no movement it a week then have a look , keep them damp not soaked

    Probably old seeds, been my experience that you can't hold back fresh seeds. Once they get old that's when you test your skills.
