I used a heating pad set on low. Worked great. I am old and need a heating pad anyway lol. When I popped mine latest, one of them didn’t go in the soil right and I had to dig it up and reposition it manually. I touched it all over. It still grew. I was gentle. My hands were clean. They are growing nicely now. Exciting first grow. I like your stuff Matt. Using the FF will be top dressing at the time my autos go into bloom with some terp tea and calmag in the water after bloom starts. Do you think calmag is necessary during regular growth?.
I have a 3D printer with heated bed, set it to 78 and forget it
Awesome info, I’m gearing up myself rn. And all this info is being soaked like a sponge. THANK U SIR
Hey brother. Have you seen the effects of a magnetic field’s around the germinating seeds? Check it out for yourself. You will be scrambling around searching for a magnet.
Does anyone have recommendations on where to obtain seeds?
You sir do a great job explaining what to do. I’m gearing up for my first grow and I have everything but the dreads. Wish me luck.
is there a way to grow without a tent indoors ? i’m trying to grow n everything i’d need is pretty expensive
whats a reliable and affordable ph tester?
Good grief, I wish my husband had done just a smidge of research. He just handed me 11 sprouts, and I have nothing but fabric pots! I guess at least they were seeds that he calls bonuses from whatever bud he has bought. He has no idea what strain they are!
Can i test my water pH clear first and then add the nutrients after to avoid the whole color problem?
Is coffee good for nutrients?
I haven’t watched this channel in a while. I’m happy you’re still here bro. Great video 💪🏾
I haven’t had any problems getting my seeds to germinate, it has been after they sprout. It took me a while but I now have a system of my own that has worked 100% of the time. Not too different but it works!
When it’s on this stage how often should I water and should I use plain water or cal mag water ?
I used the zip lock and paper towel method with an Affinity heating method, and it took on 2 days to germinate. And my seed supplier recommended another way but it would’ve took up to a week to germinate.
I love these videos on hoe to discourage people it’s a freaking weed a tomato plant get real people lol
What kind of seeds should i get?
Haha when the reptile hobby and growing come together. We use those (or similar) heat mats and thermostats for terrariums too
So if I’m starting my seed in a fabric pot what do you recommend using to cover it? Or should i use a smaller pot with something over it until it sprouts?
Does anyone know if there is any reason I couldn’t pop a seed and put it directly into a 7 gallon grow pots? Im thinking you dont have to ever transplant if you just go big to start.
Can you make a video about mixing Fox farms soil mixture of Happy Frog and Ocean Forest. Ratios? Please
Great Video👍 I really enjoy these videos and they are very helpful, keep it up
Love the channel gang ima be like you one day
Great video !! You are 100% on the money!!!
💚💚💚
I always plant seeds directly into the medium (50% peat, 50% vermiculite), ~0.25" deep, and use 18/6 lighting @ 250-300 ppfd, they always pop on the 2nd day. Great video/tips.
I used the semi closed in desk space my Gaming Pc is placed in, and it germinated! Placed it on top of the pc case inside a small food jar with one of those lids that can remove the air.
Its best to put the spot where the seed cracks open is pointing upwards. The tap root will kinda curve and start growing downwards. Then as it gets ready to break the soil and starts growing upwards the open part of the seed will catch dirt and get ripped off. If not u will have a lot more sprouts with the shell stuck on them aka helmet head.
You missed the playlist in the description 😅
I suggest trying ph correct soil, (self correcting) really helps
The best method is direct sewing. Anytime you’re moving a seedling with an exposed taproot you’re opening yourself up to damaging it or shocking it which is going to stunt it’s growth. This seed has evolved over millions of years to germinate in the ground (like most seeds). This whole paper towel method is a long standing myth in the growing community and you guys are just making more work for yourselves and risking damage to the seedling.
A Tip for sprouting seeds that i have used on 20 year old tomato seeds and got a 90% germination rate, 9 outta 10 seeds sprouted. Do the Soak Method, and add 1ml of Humic Acid Liquid per 1 ounce of water. I have never done this on Cannabis, but it works wonderfully for tomatoes and peppers. Then I coat the seed in Myco Powder while its still wet and plant it.
Great video, just used all these techniques with great success with my seeds.
Thank you for using metric too
I’ve had some fantastic plants come from little white premie beans.
Bro! Thank you for making f@#$ing sense. I’ve watched tons of videos preping myself for my first grow and all iI see is people flexing their grow. Good job!!!
Im always ready for ph with my freshwater aquarium.test kit woohoo need that tds meter tho
I really like the way you teach! I couldn’t have made a better video, no way!
Nice
Alright peeps! You are doing a fantastic job! Appreciate you! YouDig
What is your go to seed bank?
Put a 70% coco / 30% Ocean Forest in the bottom half of your Planter and then a 70/30 Happy frog on top. Its more geared for young plants. as they grow they’ll Thrive into the Ocean forest. ( Plus other ammendments. Its Harvest Day. Gotta go.
Float tech all the way. Even the most stubborn seeds will sprout just leave them floating in water till they get about a 1/2in long tap root then bury and they should be above soil in about 24-36 hrs.
U should do a much simpler series
Check the PH balance of the water before you add nutrients if you are using color liquid test.
Thank you, i stressed but i will just leave them now.!
Thank You ! Seed Starting 101..your info is pretty easy to follow, straight forward. My seeds have popped..I’m off and running!
I leave my paper towels unfolded to prevent the roots catching and ripping off when germinating, the roots will grow through the paper towel like the cloth pot but unlike the cloth pot you don’t want paper towel in your next pot of soil 😂
Those heat mats catch on fire. Just Put them in your grow Room thats areadu 78 degrees. hmmm Smart. Cover baggie wi foil to Block The Light
Random watching 4 of your videos tonight. You do supurb job. Thanks for your great work. 🇦🇨
