Well said. I probably use tools less than anyone. Because I know what the plant needs. And, every plant has its own personality. It's a simple, but complex procedure.
Nice tent, quality LED, exhaust & intake fan. Inside circular fan. Keep it simple. Plants know how to grow !
As long as you have the best possible environment, and nutrients, and watering. Stay within the specs, and you should be good.

It really is that simple! KISS…….

Yup. Leaves are perfectly flat. Nice color. You got more stretching than me though. Maybe your more sativa dominant. Mine acts like she's 80% indica ! It's actually 60 %.

Yes. Your seeds are done for, toss them in the trash.

I suggest you switch germination tactics. I currently ditched the grow plugs and been using the wet paper towel method, placed in a cabinet by fridge. Just this week I got 18/18 from different packs. 6 PBB f3 from Thug Pug, 6 Candy Fumez f2 from Alpine Valley Organics and 6 Moonbow 112 IX from Archive.

Goodluck to you.

I’ve been pushing these harder than I usually do, I’ve been ramping lights up thru the middle of the cycle, then backing down before lights out. You can see by the pics the higher light output and lower as it gets close to lights out. Just playing around trying to mimic sun a little more. Trying to give them as much as possible without cranking up the whole lights on time. Plus, they are stretching like crazy, prolly need to raise the light to make up for their growth. Good catch!

Again, never got an answer. Just people whining at me for enjoying using tools.

He answered you in his 1st post and you have continued to get the same answer. That soil looks sooooooo wet, I don't even grow in soil and I can see that. Literally just turning your nose to one of the most respected forum members. Sure to get you lots of help.

I planted 6/6 seeds 10 days ago give or take expecting 1 or 2 to die, because we ALWAYS lose seeds.
Last grow we were able to keep 4/10 alive. Sadly it looks like this grow we're going to have 2/6 alive.

We treated them all in the same conditions. Placed them in an incubator, kept at 80/80. Two sprouted out the second day.
The rest hadn't moved by day 7 so we dug and inspected. There were some taproots alive and well and we re-set them, but I think we may have drowned them.

I put them in a carboard box to dry the bottoms hoping they'll grow down and pop up, but is that likely after 10 days of nothing?

We ALWAYS have bad luck with seeds dying in droves. We can grow beautiful plants, but oddly it's this one thing we can't figure out and it should be the simplest.

We once did the paper towel method and gently put them in moist soil.
We once placed the seeds a fingernail depth in a pre-wet, but not dripping, pot of soil.

Every. Time. We lose a majority of our seeds which are really expensive and we're thinking of switching to cloning our plants to make it easier, but I'd still like to know.

Does anyone think these seeds have any chance left?
My plants in their dome under a full spectrum low wattage SpiderFarmer LED.
Watered with distilled (dehumidifier) water at 6.4pH, 80RH, 80F and Photone to measure the light to 12 DLI like it should be at this stage.

Does anyone have any recommendations, tips, or a YouTube video that will help a simpleton get a high success rate with seeds? People in Discord are telling me they're getting 90%+ survival rate so it's obviously my fault.

I used to use Jiffy peat starters until I realized that they hold enough water to make sure you're wasting your time with cannabis seeds. Will they work? Yes, but you have to let them dry out a whole bunch before you can give them more water. My advice is to either grow them directly in the soil or start them in solo cups. Those seeds are at their own water park right now so I would consider placing them in soil and not overwatering to see if you can get them to sprout that way.

I think I'll do a simple video on how to get 100 % germination . It's simple.
It almost seems like some try to over think things, and get worse results. Same with growing. Stop try to reinvent the wheel, and just simplify things. There are only so many parts a plant needs. The plant will do the rest.

Now I’m just a dumb old clown and all, I would to apologize for being testy earlier, you have to forgive me, just got blitzed by Hurricane beryl. No electricity for 10 days. Almost lost my 2 rooms with my mowie 86 project, that being said, I may have gotten a bit liberal with a couple of my comments, was just trying to say, that you got your answer.
It’s was the right answer so I really wasn’t getting why you weren’t seeing that.
the is a great group of people here, that didn’t just fall off the turnip truck. If you go to an 8oz or solo, you can the. Just use a spray bottle to water and avoid all of this mess.
Oh and I don’t swing off anyone’s dick either, I swing on trapeze and elephant dicks. I have nothing to prove to any of the mods here, it was me recognizing a fellow growers acumen. It’s an eye to eye respect thing, because nick loves the plant. so yeah, sorry and shit.
Good luck. @Growth
