    Look good. Domes would also prevent predators when small.

    I cut a 2 litre bottle in half and use both ends, lifting the domes up from time to time to change the air spray some water inside the domes, that will create humidity and you can water around the dome to make the roots stretch out.

    Thanks il do just that then. How often would you say I should lift them to change the air and for how many weeks would you recommend keeping the domes on? Sorry for all the questions this is my first time growing anything! Lol

    I keep the domes on until the leaves don't fit, lift the domes 2 or 3 times a day. Whatever question you've got someone here has the answer.

    I don't miss that weather at all,lived on the west coast of Scotland for almost 40 years,the last 6 years I lived there it was windy and pissing down almost every bloody weekend,stopped me from going kayak camping for a long time,I'm told that here in Alberta we get more sun than Brazil does,its fantastic in the summer and then the 6 month winters come along with feet of snow and -40 temps lol that I would trade for some UK weather.

    Just a quick question guys my medium hasn’t dried and it’s been 5/6 days. They still seem to be growing fine and we havnt exactly had warm weather here so I was just wondering could I have some sort of issue with the medium? Or am I just over worrying?

    The last one has been the slowest out of all of them and is the shortest and smallest do you think it’s stunted?. This however is the only one that is a different strain to the other 3
    Any opinions welcome
    Thank you

    Thanks bud was getting a little worried about the 4th one as it’s growth is a lot slower than the rest and thought maybe had something to do with the fact I havnt been able to feed them for the last 5/6 days as the medium is still moist. Is it normal for the medium to still be moist after 5/6 days considering they are outside in a greenhouse and the weather here has been shit?

    They don't need any feed yet and your soil looks quite dark and damp, just spray some water on the inside of domes and build up the humidity. Keep away from the water until the ask for it there's no foliage to draw up the water yet, as the foliage increases so does the need for water.
