have had a few grows using bag seed and have had about an 80% success rate almost all would germinate and give me a decent harvest.
Never the best quality i admit
So i went to fem seeds and had about a 50% or less rate . Sometimes they would germinate sometimes not. Sometimes die after germinating for whatever unknown reason
Then i wanted to try autos. So now i have about a 20 % chance of germinating then when they do they look like the pic.
I have tried all diff methods and soils
The pic is a small bit of a seed starting soil from bag in middle surrounded by happy frog with ocean forest in bottom of pot. Similar to something a see someone use on this site. I try to keep waterings between 6 to 6.5 ph i have a 3.x 3 tent kept at 75 and a sf1000 light i have given no nutes or supliments yet and they look burnt
It seems like i have tried everything but cant seem to get it at all
I have tried a few seed dealers and strains even the “easy beginner “ strains

Why are you mixing three different kinds of soil? Start with something simple.

Guide for FFOF.

FFOF ( Fox Farms Ocean Forest ) made Simple - Autoflower

This thread was created to help those who seem to overthink the ease of use of this highly ammended bag soil. I see many growers both new and experienced seem to post “ issues “ when trying to run this medium. I am merely showing a simple no frills method of container / bag grows for autos...

Fill your containers almost to the top.

I can almost guarantee your main issue is that you are overwatering.

I think he’s trying to fill the area around the seed with no nutrient soil, then surround that with nutrient rich soil. Sound about right OP?

I agree with the main issue being over watering. Also stop adjusting Ph for soil. Waste of time and resources

Let the pot got very light (fill one up with dry soil to compare) also stick your finger down in the soil to the first knuckle. If it’s damp, come back tomorrow and check again. Error on the side of waiting too long for right now. Once you do water, fully saturate the soil until runoff.

I don’t ph this early the microbes will take care of everything.
