Most of the time when shell is stuck is do to two things. One the seed was planted to high in what ever it was in. Two is what ever it was in was a little lose packed to rub off shell.

Well, the 2 I flipped are now growing straight up so that is good. Unfortunately I'm still not seeing any signs of life from 2 Flo-OG which is a bummer because that's the ones I'm most exited about.

Everything is hard in the beginning but no worry we have many kind friends here

So one seedling is already sending a root out of the bottom so I'm going to transplant her/him soon. I'm thinking of this mix in solo cups

1/4 FFOF 1/4 perlite 1/2 coco + granular mycorrihizae

what do we think? I figured this was a fairly weak base that will give the tiny seedlings a safe start and little chance of being swamped by this newbie grower.

Wait until you're cube is full roots, only 1 root is still pretty weak, you'll get less transplant shock with a bigger root system. I like your mix, I'm a big fan of solo cups,just make sure the have drainage.

Solid advice, thanks. I'll wait longer.

I drill five 1/4 inch holes in my solo cups. Ok fyi do not buy the cheep knock off ones lol they freaking crack and suck. Any work on the Flo-Og?

Well, i took the dome off last night and it looks like that plants hated it. Several are very floppy. and one looks like the leaves are burned. I misted them. Lights go off in about 2 hours. Should I put the dome back on? EDIT: I put the dome back on with the vents open.

You want them to be moist without being soaked. You want to make sure that the temp in the dome is not to high also. I think that having the vent open is a good move. I remove the dome several times a day so they get fresh air. Keep us posted on how it is going.

Well, I watered and put the cover back on and they perked up. Two have "burned" leaves and I"m not sure why but otherwise they look fine. One had grown a single tap root about 6 inches long probably trying to get to the water in the bottom of the tray.

Re: Big Jack's first grow ever! Flo-Og/FINI, Znet-9 LED, in dirt

Transplanted an OX. It is the most vigorous grower and had grown a single 6 inch tap root so I decided to put it in dirt. I went with 50% coco, 25% FFOF, 25% perlite and michorizae. The others are sending out little roots. I'm still not sure why the tips got burned on 2 of them but it doesn't seem to be harming them. It's been approximately one week since they were sprouted. Does this look like an average growth rate?

How far away is your LED
Seedlings need a lot less light than veg.

Re: Big Jack's first grow ever! Flo-Og/FINI, Znet-9 LED, in dirt

I took the top off the tray for good last night and turned on the fan. Today they looked fine except for one of the Autos which couldn't stand up on it's own even after watering, so I decided to go ahead and transplant it. Other than that, nothing exciting to report which I suppose is good. For the auto FINI I transplanted went with 50% FFOF, 25% perlite, 25% coco and mycorrhizae. This will be its final pot since reading here that seems to be the way to go with autos

It's about 2 ft away and I have it running on half power.

Make sure you keep it at least 2 feet. Mine is set at 2 1/2 feet.

Re: Big Jack's first grow ever! Flo-Og/FINI, Znet-9 LED, in dirt

Week and a half in. Pretty uneventful. 2 Flo OG seeds didn't break ground along with one OX so that leaves me with 2 FLOs, 3 OXs, and 2 auto FINIs. Let's hope one of the FLOs is a female. This will probably be my last post on this journal for awhile as I think this is probably pretty boring for everyone till they get bigger or problems arise.

What do I see here? Could it be sex on this 15 day old OX?
