Brother. I feel for you. To be honest it looks like shit soil. Not enough drainage, wrong consistency, wrong colour (looks like there may be a lot of clay in that dirt)This is the second time it has happened and I have no clue as to why, they also have a little purple on them out of the four only one has sprouted yet it’s still very small

I concur....seedlings can pop in something as ordinary as Pro-Mix, since the seed has all the nutrients it needs. If it can't break through the soil, it will rot and die. For soil get, the temp is equally important....75-85F.Brother. I feel for you. To be honest it looks like shit soil.

Pot size is irrelevant. I just germed autos in a 10-gallon pot. Get some coir or Pro-Mix. You can, and should, always mix something into bag soil for added aeration and water retention.I honestly think your right, I’m using Scott’s Hydroponex Potting Soil, I just grabbed it from Walmart. Any advice on new soil ? I have 3 seeds left and I really don’t want to mess them up. I also I think I put them in too large of a container too soon. I planted them all in 1 gallon pots versus starting in a solo or cup or something smaller.
Im in the EU and use bio-bizz all mix. I see a lot of people getting good results with fox farm ocean forest a lot of natural goodness mostly fish/crustacean meal and blood. also happy frog which I think has a fair amount of bat guano (could be talking shit on that one but oh well lol)I honestly think your right, I’m using Scott’s Hydroponex Potting Soil, I just grabbed it from Walmart.

You can use bag soil (Fox Farm/Happy Frog/etc) 2-3 weeks after your seedling popped...mix in some coir, perlite, or pro-mix.Which soil do you recommend?
The last one is grass,. How do you germinate and is your soil/medium have nutrients in?This is the second time it has happened and I have no clue as to why, they also have a little purple on them out of the four only one has sprouted yet it’s still very small
Yes,it looks like shit.Brother. I feel for you. To be honest it looks like shit soil. Not enough drainage, wrong consistency, wrong colour (looks like there may be a lot of clay in that dirt)
LolYes,it looks like shit.
thats exactly what I thought!The last one is grass,.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HAthats exactly what I thought!
I use Biobiz and have never had any issues,so I keep it simple. Check my grow at plant and bud photo`s.So I went out and did some shopping I picked up some organic soil, Miracle-Gro Peat Moss & Miracle-Gro Perlite. I mixed it all up and made my own little soil so hopefully this works. I knew it looked like shit I’m glad I’m not the only one haha and something was telling me the other one was grass but I was just so eager to finally get some bud started lol I was being optimistic.
I’m using crop King seeds and I’m using their germination method. Sit in distilled water for about 18 hours and then on to a paper towel for about 2 days.
Listen, a fool proof way to germinate seeds successfully each time is to soak them in water for 12 hours. Then place them in tissue paper,not too wet,and place near a warm spot,such as a radiator or cupboard. In a day or so you will see them split. To continue correctly,you need to then pot them, 3/4 " deep,then place under your grow lamp. keep regular check on them and water when needed.So I figured out the problem, I wasn't letting my seeds germinate long enough and then when i potted them I wasnt seeing progress and instantly thought something was wrong and would dig them out. So i just got done germinate my last two seeds and the tails on them are nice and long. I potted them a few moments ago.
Thanks for that advice, ill be following that regimen on my next grow.Listen, a fool proof way to germinate seeds successfully each time is to soak them in water for 12 hours.
