Hello to all my Kush Komrades!
I have been away for a few days with family issues, but I am back to give an update on what's going. So, I will start with the bad news first. I tried to take the shell off the narco and accidentally snapped the stem. In fact, of 3 of the 4 seedlings had shells stuck to them. I wonder if it is something I am doing wrong.
Adorable. Do you still have your LED 24"?
If I am getting growers mixed up I apologize.
Peace
Yes Yeatster, I have not changed anything. @Klov Thanks for the germination information. I have a question though. How would I know which end of the seed to plant if I chose not to use the wet paper towel method?
Hi Siroz damn all these troubles you keep running into. hope the wind will change soon for you.
you never followed up on the question on your lights manufacture to me Siroz. reason i was asking was. if it is a panel with only 1w diodes or some real cheap 3 watts maybe you need to get some good bit closer then people using lights from Apollo, Platinum, Spider, Mars etc. I had some cheap ufo's they needed to go way closer then the mars light im using now the ufo with 1w leds can be as close as 4 inches without bleeching. so thought that might could be why they just keep stretching in the stem and now doing much on top. so that was the reason for me asking some days ago.
Oh yes, sorry Klov I forgot to respond. I ordered it from ebay. It came from China. All it says for name is LED plant grow light. It is probably a real cheap brand. So, Ill try moving them closer. I can always move them back. Thanks again for chiming in so quickly
Thanks Klov, I truly appreciate that. I went a head and moved them to 15. Ill chime back in later in the week and let you know what went on. Hey, if I see some progress you may have helped me solve my problem!
So, I decided to do an update, mainly for suggestions. As of today the 2 blue mystics and 1 mystery photo are 12 days from germination and 9 days since they broke soil. The narco is 6 days since germination and 3 days since it broke soil. It pains me to say, but when you examine the pics it looks like the same thing is happening to me all over gain. However, I am going to be patient. I'm really trying to pin point where I am making the mistake at. So, here are more details of how I began this grow for anyone that wants to help.
1. Germinate in wet paper. A tap usuall show within 24-36 hrs.
2. make a hole in soil about fingernail length, wet hole with mister. and plant seed root down. Cover seed with dirt. Mist the top lightly as needed
3. when plant breaks soil give first watering. 100ml of ph'd water 6.0 -6.5
I did these steps with the 2 blue mystics and the mystery photo.
With the narco I decided not to give 100 ml and have been misting it. Just wanted to see if 100 ml is where I messed up.
As you will see in the pics, nothing has really changed.
Blue Mystic Auto 9 days from breaking soil

Mystery Photo 9 days from breaking soil. I truly don't know what's going on with this.
Narco Purps Auto 3 days from breaking soil.
Not sure what you mean by 'Regular Soil'. But it sounds like they aren't receiving enough light. I had a similar problem when I first started and finally realized that I had to have my CFL around 3-5 inches away from my seedlings to help prevent too much stretching and allow for 'True Leaf'(the saw blade leaves) to develop porperly. When they become older and stronger you can get away with 2-3 inches with proper air circulation, but seedlings are a little more delicate. How close are you CFL currently? One of the benefits of CFL is that they can be placed very close to the plants due to their low heat output. This helps balance out the lower lumen/watt ratio.
The drooping during night cycle could be due to low temperatures. I notcied drooping on my younger plants when I let the temp drop down to around 65f, but once the lights came back on they perked right up. What are your day/night temps and humidity? Seedlings will need higher humidity since they are still producing roots and will get much of their water through their leaves by pulling moisture from the air.
I noticed more stretching today. So, I have dropped my lights to 13in now. There has been no bleaching of the leaves so far. I also took the mystery photo out and planted another, seed straight to soil. @Glimmer Thank you for that post
Yes Klov, I have the link. 225Watt LED Grow Light
