Hi all, I've grown a couple of times; both from cuttings. One i tried from seed and she germed fine but the conditions were too hot so she had to be flung. Now everything seems ok but the beans are giving me grief.
I was using Dutch Passion Think Different and Mazar, Sweet Seeds La Diva and Red Devll, one of each.
Process used:
Placed seed in folded damp paper towel, moistened with lukewarm water.
The paper towel is then placed in the baggy they arrived in and closed up.
The baggies are then put in the jiffy packaging they arrived in and put ontop of the boiler wrapped in a towel.
They remained there until they cracked and showed their tap root(36-48 hours), the think different was looking more promising, the tap root was looong. - once when i checked the baggied and paper towel were pretty warm off the heat of the boiler, maybe could be the cause of this?
As it stands it had been 5 days since put in soil, think different has grown some what but not touch the surface (gently pulled away the top coco to see the tap root had grown and gone green? the shell had broken away.)
the other 3 hadn't budged an inch, natta. I was getting impatient and annoyed which resulted in me squeezing one of the beans, it was all white mushy inside - foolish but not sure if it should be all mushy ??
Ive got a few more autos set to arrive any day now so don't want the same mistake to happen again.
Anyway not to natter on, want to make sure you know whats going on. Thanks for the read and any help is much appreciated.
