Seedlings require very little light.
Don’t water for a while the soil is quite wet

Oh yea I had just watered it and took a picture! I let it dry out until the top 2 inches are dry before watering it again. My previous grow which was my first indoor and autoflower I defo watered too much so I'm much more careful right now :) But thanks for the feedback!Looks fine bud

The soil was not moist at all when I planted them. That's how I've always been doing it, I will germinate the seed, then put it into the soil but not too deep. Spray some water on top of the soil and let it do its thing. But I always use a spray bottle and especially in the beginning use very little water as I don't want to drown my seed.How moist was the soil when you planted? That'll matter. Young plants need somewhat moist soil, but be careful not to water close to the stem.
Quick question, why do you wrap your airpots like that? Isn't the point of them to have the airflow? Or do you have some special reason?I wait until the day after sprout then transplant my jiffy into a pre-moistened 5gal airpot. Each of these plants are in the same light, fluffy, well draining mix and each will take right at 1/2 gal to slight run off. The only difference is the time it takes for each pot to go from moist to dry.
Ah smart though! I got those tiny gnats always no matter how clean i keep it (think they might be attracted to my humidifier) .. so maybe thats something i can try. I just try to make sure everythings pretty clean and hang a bunch of yellow stickies everywhere xDI put the pantyhose on to deter unwanted pest entrance and to maintain a cleaner grow area. The pots still "breathe" with no problem.
Your grow area is spotless. I'm a messy camper.
I use a combination of “hefting” the pot for wet or dry weight.Really simple rule. every time you water you want to see a full cycle of wet to dry.. water when the pot is dry. If you water on soaked pots then you can cause other issues
Same thing! I upgrade from a hand sprayer to one of those with a hose (but still has a spray head once it needs a decent amount of water) and then upgrade to just pouring water in with a water bottle that has holes in the plastic bottle cap. Works pretty well! Thanks for the inputMan this auto flowers “don’t like to be up potted” is a myth. Don’t pay attention to that bs. Plants like to be up potted. Auto or not.
I use a sprayer to water babies.
It’s good practice, keeps you from flooding out the root zone of sensitive seedlings.
Good luck
Its not a bad idea I would do the lifting of the pot and would notice a difference but only once the plants are already quite large and need more water. During seedling phase/beginning veg i don't water them too muchim an idiot so i just purchased some kitchen scales and started weighing my pots
Agree! Each grow I feel like I'm learning something new. Which makes sense, you make the obvious mistakes first and after those you can really start mid/maxing thisI use a combination of “hefting” the pot for wet or dry weight.
A lot of learning to do. I’m working on trying to read the plant.
It’s a rewarding hobby.
I don't think you understand what idiot means.im an idiot so i just purchased some kitchen scales and started weighing my pots
because im an idiotI don't think you understand what idiot means.
That's the most accurate way.
Tldr
Great idea
You too eh?because im an idiot
Its what I'm toldYou too eh?
