Sounds like you have some tough seeds there! Try scarifying them..lightly rough up the surface of the seeds with some 400 grit sand paper or edge of a matchbook,there are a few other ways as well, then germinate with your paper towel, soil, seaweed what have you,good luck :)
Probably nothing Brewer...seems the starryders are susceptible to damping off.Cleanliness and sterilization usually help with damping off, so does a product called "no damp" if your worried for next time. Try wiping down your equipment with a mild bleach solution or alcohol, washing your hands...
imo i would give her longer( without knowing the strain),since you've done the lst to give you more veg time, so veg her as your height allows,knowing that she might double, more or less in height when you flip to flower:goodjob:btw
the plants look great!even upside down,it looks like the dirt should be falling out!i have that problem with some pics aswell btw,sorry i cant help you with your questions :(
Hey cmay, i've used the koolbloom now for a few years,like it alot.2 ml/gal seems easy and safe to use,only good things have happened.Not familiar with kabloom.did try some monster bloom for awhile but went back to the koolbloom.
i've tried all the methods also,now i just plant them directly into my well watered medium which i make from a little bit of vermiculite,perlite, peat and a little sand,the sand gives the mix a little wieght and also helps pull the seed husk off when it pushes through the surface .
