Oh man, I completely forgot about making the roots reach and search for moisture :O. I'll try to extend the wait period between waterings to about 2 days or so. Thanks!

I've tried both - misting with a spray, and also I only planted about 1/4'' to 1/2'' inch into the soil (roughly 1.4 cm).

I'm beginning to wonder what I'm doing wrong. I used the paper towel method and within 2-3 days, I had good size taproots sticking out from both of my seeds. I planted them 1/4''-1/2'' inch deep in some FF Ocean Forest potting soil placed in their own dixie cups, making sure there were plenty...

Why not just save yourself the trouble, anxiety and paranoia and get yourself a med card? Costs about $100-$160 to get a prescription, and it grants you permission to cultivate/grow 6 mature or 12 immature plants. Not only does this grant you access to some dope medical weed if you find...

How long after you planted did your plants sprout? I planted my seeds about 3 days ago and still nothing; just hoping I didn't kill it by overwatering.

Haha knew it - I remember very little from my short trip to the UK.

Only place I can think of is Attitude seed bank, who are based out of Ipswich...but that's more East UK no? The Attitude Cannabis Seeds Marijuana Seeds You can get 15% off the final price by entering the code "420".

Wait wait, you have the Jiffy cups sitting in a pool of water? Is that ok to do? I'm just wondering for the sake of my own grow - I'm using blue plastic dixie cups.

I dunno to be honest - it might have flown in when I opened the door and walked out of my room. It was a jumpy little fellow who apparently could fly - I just scooped him into a cut envelope and gently put him back outside.

Found this on the seeds I am currently germinating (how do they look btw? I put in just enough water so there was some runoff at the bottom of the cups) - I was just curious what kind of bug it was? When I first saw it I got excited because I thought it was the sprout popping up, but then...

The soil video WAS SO HELPFUL - although words and photos are helpful, having a video source to teach something from step 1 onwards in live action cannot be replaced for me.

I may have buried slightly past 1/2 an inch to compensate for the long root...SHIT! I guess that's what is causing this whole mess. Will it still break the surface but just take a bit more time? Here are some pictures of the two seeds if you are interested:

I'm wondering what to do about two of my sprouts - I may have planted them in the soil too early. I planted them at a point when the "white worm" part was just barely sticking out, and two days later, I was misting the soil in each cup when the seeds showed up on the surface - they hadn't...

Isn't there a technique called super-cropping, where people intentionally snap the branch?

Ok, so you're recommending I keep doing what I do, except after testing the water when its mixed with the soil, then adjust the pH down/up (most likely up). Correct? Sorry if I'm sweating the small stuff - I know Desertrat told me not to, but considering A.) this is my first grow and B.) I'm...

Just retested using the water from my kitchen sink - its 7.2 right out of the faucet. My meter registers the soil as being wet, so next watering I'll try using the water right out of the source.

Oh ok - what are your thoughts on the pH issue then?

Ok new question: I just bought one of those pH/moister meter devices, and from the looks of it, the pH is too acidic (about 3.5) - the water I put in is balanced at 6.5-6.8 after I correct it using pH Down; the starting pH level is around 8.0 right from the tap. Since the soil naturally turns...

Ok took them off - thanks for the input guys. I'm growing them outside, but since it's 12 hours of sunlight where I live, after sundown, I put them under some CFL's. Someone said this might invoke early flowering, since I'm switching from the most powerful light source known to man (the Sun)...

I'm current using FF Ocean Forrest soil in small 8 oz plastic dixie cups with some perlite sprinkled on top. My biggest fear is I'll let the soil dry out, or overwater the thing. What's your take on the saran wrap over the top?
