Ugh... so I found out my new humidome is a piece of crap. It is supposed to let air through the bottom of the dome part to travel up through the top. It doesnt tho. Caused two seedlings to damp off last night. Fricken A... I am so sick of surprises.

I have 7/9 above soil. One grew its root up and out of the soil so I had to replant I hope it makes it.

I decided to plant the two beans that didn't pop and hope the extra heat (80* 48% humidity) will help.

I wish I could just start over to be honest. I'm really bummed because this was a tester I was really looking forward to.

It seems everytime I get comfortable something happens.

I don't like sharing this info, but I didn't want people to think it was the beans instead of user error.

I killed off $100 in beans with a humidome, I don't use them on seeds anymore at all. when I took the seeds out they were mush.

sorry for your loss pie. it sucks.

My last humidome I would put spacers underneath to keep some airflow. This one was supposed to eliminate that need.

ugh.

I am a mother so I just put them under it and walked away. I should of put a hygrometer in there and checked back every few hours.

I just hope the ones above ground aren't comprimised. I took the dome off as soon as I saw them pop above ground.
 
Yeah I have switched to MrHead's germing method and it works perfectly every time: Pop seed into soaked jiffy rooter. No soak nothing. Then from there to half gal nursery bags, totally fail proof and effortless thus far I like it.

I will definitely have to pay more attention that's for sure. Next time I will have to pop seeds on a schedule where she is in bed so I can make sure humidity is ok.

Really bummed out right now. I wanted a high count so I would be ok if I got a low female/male ratio. Hopefully those last two beans pop.

I appreciate all the advice and info. This kind of stuff puts a nervous pit in my stomache. I will probably be nervous until I see the other seedlings are thriving.
 
i know what ya mean. i lost 3 out 5 healing fields due to fungas gnats....
but my two survivors look very healthy. they were all in the small boat. so i know the 2 had fungas gnats too.
i guess survival of the fittest.
soo. that kinda scared me. so i did the paper towel thing on my lee roy. everything popped and planted.
i just dont like how it stretches, and helmet heads..
i think im just going to stick to my sow method.

my lee roy is really impressing me looks killer, really low yield but that's expected from the genetics. Hopefully I didn't fuck her up today by leaving my lights on for 3 extra hours lol

I do it almost exact same way. I go tiny solo cup, to lil jiffy cubes filled with peat and then onto next pots.
 
Never been a fan of humidomes or plastic over solo cups cus it causes the seedlings to always need a very humid environment and once the humid environment is gone the seedlings can dampen off. I've never used them and I've never had anything dampen off unless it was my fault and letting the medium dry out too much

Never.....this be my main home.

I was almost sick,when thus site went down....lol...frfr

Bro who you telling I thought I was gonna die without this place lol and I wasn't even growing again yet when it was down but I still went crazy cus I use this place for lots of info too

Best way I found is to germinate in a cup of water for 24 hours then transfer to a paper towel for 48 more hours than put seed directly into dirt.

I always soak my seeds for 48 hours and then straight into the medium. I don't like handling seeds too much. I know somebody that does your method too but they use a towel. I'd be scared I would kill em lol
