First Grow Day 3

I found worms in it too, it doesn't say that on the packaging. Is that ok?

what kind of worms?
post picture before using it. you may have to bake the soil to kill everything. if the worms are not the good kind.

okay first you must moisten the soil with the water/molasses. then you will have some left and i would mix up a 1/2 gallon of veg/bloom mix at 1/16 strenth. a little goes a long way and then fill that 1/2 gallon with the molasses water. then water till you get a little run off. but do it 1/4-1/2 cup every 5 min. you always want to slowly water them. then put leftover in fridge and take out 4 days later to get to room temp for water/feed on day 5 again. also i like to go up about 1/4 way on pot and drill a hole on each side about the size of a small straw. that will allow it to take on my oxygen for the roots.

Ok so I went with the 0-0-0 and have my gallon with the 1/2 TBSP of molasses, since it is 0-0-0 do I add nutes now or when?

Regular garden worms, like the kind that surface when it rains. Found a few stones as well. It doesn't say any of that on the packaging. Ok, so how much of a gallon do I water. I have one of those tidy cats buckets with 24 qz of soil.

Start with 1/2 cup let it soak in then add again. then mix in some nutes into the left over water/molasses 1/16th amount and give it 1/2 cup then 1/2 cup again slowly till you get it coming out of bottom of pot. take all worms out and take out the stones can stay i like rocks at the bottom of my pots.

It's been a month now and your effectively at day zero still.. Lay off the nutes and try all natural man!

Well, one's successes are based upon one's failures. The problem was my soil. I grabbed soil today that was at 0-0-0.

he is changing soil. ive never had issues like this. if you can guide him Please do so.

I have..

No nute, no molasses no nothing.

Germ your seed in a coffee filter inside of a pill jar. ONce a tail is showing stick it in soil dark and damp till it pops. After it pops wait for 3rd leafset before adding ANYTHING.

Try Wormcastings and Batguano some natural stuff.

that sounds good. only thing is it takes weeks to break down molasses.

Can't change anything now. Just did the whole process DCo.

you transplanted right? if you did a seed in soil then dont feed again till you have a plant. the soil will hold the nutes.

Don't let anything discourage you. I'm sure low and dco grow excellent plants each with different ways.

I believe you are right about it being your soil. Time will tell!

they look good to me. the one looks like she might have got to dry maybe. but she will be okay.

First seed popped:

make sure no nutes yet. and dont water till she is dry

Hey there nice its popping. NO NUTE NO NUTE NO NUTES!

No humidty dome either!!

Here is a pop of mine I germinated the same day you did:

I gave it 1/16th nutes with the 1/2 tbsp molasses because soil was 0-0-0 when we got the soil ready to take the seed.
