Well, still no sign of the other plant yet. However, the one pictured is now fully above the surface this morning! Hopefully now I'll see it growing fast. It is green with a bit of yellow which I assume is cos it's just a baby!

Wooo. Finally. It's been over a week since germination began and I planted on Saturday, but my first sign of green has shown up through the soil. Here are some pictures. I'm still waiting on another light and 'hanger' to come for a 250w CFL so will be able to light them up better. Any other...

Hey dude, is this 1 week once you germinated your seed or 1 week from first starting to grow your seed from scratch? Thanks.

Any quick tips on trying to increase the temperature of the soil? I’d say my room temperature is probably quite cool and the CFL’s don’t really provide much, if any heat to the soil. It’s been just over a week now since they started their ‘grow’ so something must be slowing them down.

Will do mate. Every morning and evening I’ve been hoping that I’ll see a little bit of green sprout out of the ground. I put a little extra soil on top a couple of days or so ago because when I put a bit of water on one of them it washed away some soil to expose the seed, so I just put some...

Right guys, I started my germination process exactly one week ago today. They were showing taproots by Friday/Saturday when I planted them. It’s a good 4-5 days since I planted them in soil and I’m yet to see it sprout yet. Should I start to be a little worried yet or should I just...

Instead of fucking about with flicking switches on and off, why don't you get a timer switch? They plug straight into the wall/extension lead and you can set it to come on and off. In the UK they only cost about 6 or 7 quid. But yeah, if they are under the earth I can't see light being important...

I’m a newbie, but if you put your lights close to the top of your plants it will stop them stretching to reach it. Also other methods like topping takes height off the top. With regards to growing outwards though I have no idea, I can only think if you have a problem with growing outwards...

Okay thanks, going to need to plan on looking to places I can relocate where I can guarantee the darkness, but also the warmth and a light source. I don’t think my wardrobe is going to be light tight enough on reflection.

I’m thinking ahead some what but in light of someone mentioning it in another thread... When performing the 12/12 stage to induce flowering, is it absolutely necessary that there are no light ‘leaks’? For example, my wardrobe has cracks in it so isn’t 100% light tight, but when it’s closed...

I let mine sprout its taproot and then planted them in the soil under a CFL light and the last couple of days I’ve left them outside in a greenhouse. It’ll be 4 days today since I planted them in the soil since I saw their taproots and it will be 1 week tomorrow since I started the germination...

Hi, I have already started posting in Newbie Central but thought I'd introduce myself here! I'm 24, male and live in the UK (well, London to be more precise). It sounds kinda weird being on a stoner forum, but I'm not much of a smoker. I smoke when I can (not many of my friends smoke and the...

Hey, yeah I already germinated both the seeds. One germinated 1 day earlier. Once the 'tap root' was showing I planted them (Friday + Saturday). I'm just wondering why they were taking 2-3 days to show as I read someone on here mention they should show above ground in 24 hours. I guess it...

Awesome - thanks. I just hope I don't kill them! I will be incredibly annoyed. You mention increasing the humidity for the seeds to sprout above the surface - would you need to sustain this humidity when the plant is vegetating and is growing with leaves? I've looked at it seems the plant can...

Thanks very much. I keep hearing conflictions about watering. Some say that seedlings need to be very wet and getting dry will kill them and others say they need to dry out and water can kill them? Yeah I kinda felt bad after digging a bit of soil off the top, I just wanted to see if there was...

Hey chaps. First off, sorry for going over ground time and time again. I hope it’s not too annoying but I guess this is Newbie Central! So I hope I don’t get too much stick. Seeds germinated, saw some white root poking through the seed so planted them both into some indoor compost...

Really weird as I have 2 seeds from the same strain. I put one on a plate in between warm paper towels and a lid and kept it on my window ledge. My brother had his seed, stick it in some plastic bottle with a bit of tissue at the bottom and water and put it in his stuffed up draw. His sprouted...

What's the idea of topping? Why do some top and others don't? At what age/size of the plant should one top? Thanks.

Humidity Cannabis plants can also withstand varying levels of humidity. However, 50% humidity inside your growing room is highly recommended. Using humidity meters in order to track the humidity of your growing room is highly advised for those who have more than a few...

My other seed germinated last night so this morning I planted it - yay. I also grabbed a couple of plastic cups, cut the bottom out and taped them up with thick electrical tape. Finally I put some warm water in the bottom of the tray so they have water there to draw on as and when. I think I...
