Here they are. E ended up dying as well, but was replaced by the new seed(F). They look OK, but aren't really growing :/
So now the plants are A,B,D,and E. Lets see if If i can use my experience to get E up and going.

Checked on them today, literally no growth. It's been 24 hours, and the seedling isn't up. That is actually good, I think it should take 2-3 days. When i burried the others too shallow, it caused a bunch of problems.

Miracle grow.

From what I've read and almost experienced is that seedlings don't tent to like Miracle Grow. Is it nturient feeder one? For 3 months? I;ve been told that is bad for plants because it kills them from over nuteing, with no measurment you can't control how much is released and when. Especially in the seedling stage when the plant has enough nutes in its internal system to feed for 2-3 weeks.

I've heard this aswell, but I have no other choices for good soil. And i have seen other people effectively use it.

My grow is being done with miracle gro. As long as you start to regulate the waterings like you've already started to do instead of the small frequent waterings you should start to see some growth.
It also helps regulate the soils nutes from being released with every drop of water. I'm on day 23 of my grow but if you check my pictures it did take a few days for it to really start up. I think it took 3 days from plant to see any signs.
Good luck man I'll be watching

Thanks
What if in the future I flush the nutrients from the Miracle grow with massive amounts of water. Make it more organic.

I'd like to think they'd be used up once the plant is a little older. I'm flushing my monster right meow. Been water a little more than normal getting all the excess out of the bottom of my pot.
I'm sure someone with more experience could help. I'm just spitting out what I've gathered. Seems to be working for me so far :]

I seem to have bad luck :/ between this and the germination problems. Struggling through each stage. Good thing though is I have a 100% germination rate with bagseed now that i learned that.

Yeah I don't have 6500k and Ican't leave my lights on in the night, as light seeps out. Can't wait till i get my cabinet.

I added some baking soda and vinegar to a open jar and put it near the plants. Also put some water in it to raise humidity. I am hoping it will help the growth.

Yeah I think Ill be doing hydro next time.I am not knocking Miracle grow for your grow, but when starting seeds in the future I would use Jiffy seed starting mix. It is available just about everywhere and is hard to beat for seedlings. It works well for cuttings too.

Hey Bubbel, maybe you can look for threads of people that used MG and got good results and see what strain they were using that might help.
