Ok..so,after wasting a couple seeds from god knows what..they never sproted,and died....my first seed attempts were the seed boutqiue freebies..none spouted in rockwool...then I tried sprouting 5 of my nirvana ak48 seeds..they were placed in a cup of water,and placed on top of my cpu monitor..the next day,I placed them in my rapid rooters..I instanmtly noticed that the rapid rooters BEAT rockwool to a pulkp in terms on root growth,etc....so now its my preffered seedling starters...to make a long story short,I now have only 2 ak48 seedlings,and they only have their first set of leaves:spew: here is my question..its been a ROCKY start for them...at first,once they srpouted,they were only kept in a window sill for a day,theyr not strestedh or anything though....then I moved them under some cfls;and theyw ere in a quite HOT temp..around 85-92f.......

then,i though i was getting ruched,so i threw the seedlingsd with the rapid rooter plugs into the garbage..they were there for halfhour or so..then i placed them back under the lights......so has all this neglect,stress,etc have them strssed out.....they are now in 16oz beer cups,with a coco coir perlite medium....i watered them yesterday with ph;ed water....and today i will water with superthrive to give them a boost....:hump::hump::hump:

so do i have anything to fear??will they be alright??and if they are stressed..will the superthrive fix em' up???!


the temps are cool now..with a fan blowing air in the box..eveything is managebale now..but im just worried that they stared their life in a not so otimal way...+rep to whoever helps me out man..

come on guys..im gettn stressed out thinking that m,y seedlings are gonna be half assed..alsoi have em under 2 cfls..one is 30w the other is 23w..they are 2500k..i know i need 6500l for vegging..but should i just use this for right now..the thing is i have a brand new 110 t-5 high output system from htg supply..with 6500k ulktr blue spectrum lights....it emits around 10,000 lumens..i know compared to my shiotty old cfls..this is paradise for my seedlings..so should i just use this to veg them?? theyr still quite small..only 2 days old..and i dont wanna use more light than needed..so will they grow faster under the t-5..or it doesnt matter??

ive heard that seedlings grow roots at first,and THEN start growing leaves..is trhis true??

hellooooo...any onee.....outtt theeeerrrreee????
just relex, they will be fine as long as they are getting 18 hours or more of light if they are in veg. keep the light 5" to 6"away from the plants. you will be fine good luck.

they are in OPTIMAL place right now..under a BRAND NEW t-5 light with 6500l bulbs...theyr currently getting 10000 lumens,with a fan in there keeping temps nice and cool...a few hours ago I watered them again with a superthroive/water mix.....now only time will tell if they were strssed or not....my question is,now that i added this new light,and dumped my shitty ol' 2500k cfls...will they start to grow a little fastere..ive been seeing all these pics where the seedlings are already BIG at only around 10 days...mine are about 3 days and still quite small...with only the first set of "single bladed leaves"....

also,does it matter at all that on their first day that they popped..they were either in the windowill,the old cfls,etc....will all those light changes and the fact that they were not under a steady light source..will this affect them in any way???:hump::hump:


man,i hope they start growing now....either way i have some more seeds sprouting soon..and those will def not share the same fate as these..lol

Haha calm down man...

Some strains just grow hell of slow in the beginning.

And unless you moved the while they were under the lights... and took like 7 hours moving them, I see no reason why changing the lights to better ones would have any negative effect.

First you said they sporuted now they are not? Do they have their leaves or not? Look at some journals to see what growth looks like and be patient. You are not gonna be smoking for anothe 3 months so take a deep breath...

Mexican brick weed can be some of the best weed. It is just packages for bulk, but can be a great smoke!

first off...

you sound like you suck at germinating.... which isn't a bad thing...but your lack of patience seems to be whats killing your plants....

germinate using the paper plate method and once you have tap roots, place them in soil... don't "water" the soil, but use a spray bottle and moisten the soil every 12 hours... like 5 or 6 squirts every 12 hours....

seedlings don't need nutes... nutes can hurt seedlings...

don't worry about how other people pics look at 10 days... a lot of those pics are actually close ups and just look bigger than what they really are... and others have so much lumens, it makes the plants grow faster....

you didn't have to throw away the 2500's, you could mix it in with the lights you're using now to add more lumens and it will give it more of a spectrum that matches the sun.. the sun doesn't just use one spectrum

to help with your temp... make a CO2 generator... its do-it-yourself and co2 helps plants in higher temps...

dam cuz +rep....yea i do admist germing has kicked my ass :spew:...its harder than it seeds...and the reason i dont use the paper towel method is cus touching and fucking with the taproot not only strsses it,but it kills the micro hairs on the root itself.....:clap:ya dig?
