Hello fellow rollers!
Havent been on a forum since Garden's cure was still around!

From: soCal

Growing: nothing, killed all my seeds that I was saving for 6-10 years. It's too cold or something, I don't know wtf happened.

Planning to grow: some c99 and green avenger I just ordered

Have grown: a couple of strains, kali mist, grape crush, velvet orange(old school) bagseed

Where and how: planing on a tent grow, probably HPS and hydro/ebb n flow.

Looking forward to being part of this community.

Grow on!

-PCC

Hello everyone. Long time grower from SoCal. I grow everything from ganja to garlic. Happy to be here and happy growing!
Welcome to RIU @Highrish I'm from SoCal. My brother up in NoCal introduced me to the tri tip sandwich. This is something I miss. The best came from outside barbecue pits.

Hello,
I am amazed at the information provided by so many growers! Very helpful. On that note, I do have a question. How can I get my seeds to sprout in a shorter amount of time? I am thinking the seeds I have are not good ones, since only 8 out of 30 have actually germinated, sprouted (taking around 32 days), and only one survived and grew. Maybe I need to place them in nutrient rich water, and light? Help...

Welcome to RIU @KarmaKav If you search through the forums you'll find all kinds of discussion about germination methods. Seems like many of our forum questions get answers that start out: "it depends. As to getting seeds to sprout shorter, maybe so, maybe not, it depends.

Depends on genetics and your environment plus the seeds themselves and how you treated them...

There's an interesting article up on the Grow Weed Easy site:

I sprout by putting mine in Jiffy Peat Pellets (soaked). Then I put them in a little Jiffy greenhouse


In a shoebox sitting on a piece of styrofoam above a heating pad on low (because I was to cheap to buy a seedling mat).

I usually have sprouts between 36 to 72 hours. Although older seeds can require longer germination time. As soon as I see them come up I move them under a T5HO with a good spray of water to help with hull removal.

Thank you! That's what I was hoping for. I can also use that for sprouting my veggie seeds for spring planting in the garden. I appreciate your response. It's been frustrating waiting for my cannabis seeds to sprout. I tried planting directly into pots (large ones), and some soaking in water, but only a few sprouted in about a week, most of them up to 30 days. Your information will be put to good use! :leaf::D

Cannabis benefits from potting up. So don't sow seeds directly into a large pot. I used 3 oz Dixie cups with coco pith in it before getting lazy and moving to Jiffy Peat Pellets. Moved to a pint pot then moved to a 2 gallon pot where I finished them.

Welcome to RIU @Leeski and best of luck. Not everyone feeds every other day. Some people feed five times every day. Others once a week. It depends!! It depends on many things, maybe starting with what media you are growing in.

Biobizz lite and a few little extras they look healthy or at least I think they do? Just done first training View attachment 4279723View attachment 4279725
Biobizz lite is a hot soil, right? I mean, it has nutrients mixed in, true? Yes, your plants do look healthy. So no, you wouldn't water every other day, you'd water when the plants tell you they are ready or the pot feels lite again, or just what you've been doing.
