Dude, poke a hole straight through the sponge with a chop stick, it helps secure the seed and makes it easy for the root to go straight down.
The plant in the pic is 2 weeks old
Yes, I put them in a cup of water for 8 hours, then I put then in moist paper towels. Then I poke a hole straight through to help secure the seed, and helps the roots i guess hehe
UPDATE!! I added Nutes 2 days ago and there seems to be no apparent problem... yet. here they are, the stem of the big one is thiiick! Some of the leaves are a little bent due to the fan, I moved it so the wind hits the wall before the plant now.
