amazing germinatin rates i've got...
and i've got 10 mangoes, 2 feminised BBC, 1 feminised afghan kush and 2 from a random swiss outdoor mix.
they all crack open, but deciding that they were planted too close to the surface, i pushed my way in deeper with a toothpick and managed to get about half an inch deeper. the afghan kush and 1 mango are still under the surface but the rest have all popped up their cute lil things out. the tallest currently measures around 2 inches and the leaf which is kinds shaped like a spearmint leaf is neon green, the flat leaf being that kinda lime color.
the shortest is having some trouble getting the seed casing off itself and the top looks bruised? its like purplish in color and the seed casing hasnt completely opened..should i be worried for this lil girl? the sprouting was off to a hard start kus it was facing the wrong direction..
Q1) im using cfl lighting at 250watts for now, the light being held about 5 inches above the tallest mango. should it be higher up??
Q2) how often should i be watering my babies? how much evertime?
Q3) what is the ideal day/night ratio at this stage? this is the vegetative stage right?
Q4) some of my babies aren't straight, as in they stems are wavy like a hunchback. they will straighten out right??!
these are the questions i have for now, and i have been researching as much as possible via the internet. i have a very weak environment for the plants, but i am doing my very best so please do not hate. any help would be much appreciate =) pics were taken using my phone,.
peace.
