im new to growing just really sick of paying for it. any advice i can get would be apreciated. I built a 1.5m * 3m and have a 1000 what light,i have a 500mm carbon filter with fan to suck the smell and heat the room is curently sitting on 35 to 40 degrease and 20% humidity.

I am curently having trouble getting my seeds to sprout. i first soaked them in water for 24 hours then i put them in jiffy peat pellets andhad them in my grow room for 3 or 4 days and there was no sign of growth so i doug one of the seeds up[ and it only had a tiny root appearing so i left it for acouple more days and still no sign so i looked at the roots abain and there not growing, so i tried germinating them in paper towel and had them to cold so after 2days they still havent got much roots.. So i got some seed raising soil and planted them staight in the dirt and sat them under my 1000 what light. i no they dont need light to sprout, i only put them under the light to keep them warm. Will that effect the growth or do u think i might of stund the seeds from to many different temp. cheers:eyesmoke:

35-40 is pretty cold, what strain do you have? That can make a difference, if it is a warmer acclimatized seed then they may not flourish as well. When you germinate the seeds, you need to have high humidity optimal range is 75 degrees, for the paper towel method, double up a paper towel soak in it in ph water put it on a ceramic plate place the seeds on the paper towel fold it over and cover with plastic wrap, let it sit and check once a day, careful not to touch them as they are susceptible to bacteria and infection, they can take anywhere from 24hr-7 or more days to sprout, once they sprout the small white stem place it in your growing medium stem down about 1-2 seed lengths inside of the medium. Google is your best friend, try youtube i have seen videos and tutorials on how to!

I would also recommend moving this thread to the newbie grow forum for grow questions.

that is a big difference, c/f.....max temp would be 95F and thats pushing it way to far, that would require CO2 in order to grow in that temp.
