Organic always has the soil lightly damp, never dry. Water when needed. No runoff is really needed for organics, but once a week is a good idea just to check the pH and make sure nothing is off.

Click the Forum button on top here and scroll down the left side. Make yourself a grow log with all your info. add pix and share your fun with the rest of us!
Would that be under grow diaries? Also was going to go to a solo cup next for potting up, would you keep a plastic ziploc and a rubber band around it for humidity since I don’t have a dome top? And at what point do I need fans. As for fresh air is a bedroom with a door open occasion fine? The a/c pumps into the room too but For the most part I covered it up. Any advice?

Ok. Do I understand correctly that you do not have a tent to grow them in?
That's an easy fix. If you have a truck or other large vehicle, go behind a local appliance store and ask the dock guys for 2 empty washing machine boxes. Get some cheap bright white spray paint and paint the insides. Leave the top open for now and hang your light across the top in a way you can raise and lower it easily. Easy Peasy, home made tent for the cost of a trip to the local appliance store. (call first to see if they have any)

Having it enclosed makes it much easier to grow well.

A little water misted on the shell may help loosen it- always best not to mess with them but some do need help I use my fingers to hold the stem and a sterile razor blade to slide in between the two leaflets and cut upward - just my method . I’m sure there are others

Can ya get a pic ? Shell may be bad verbiage- there’s a thin membrane that holds the cots together inside the shell sometime this membrane is tough and I just help them along , but always try to keep it moist and let nature do it’s thing if possible, they are delicate at this stage

The back one. Is it ready water again? I heard it’s better to let them be to dry then be to wet when it’s young

Yes I’d let them completely dry - seedling can drown in soaked soil. I would use the blade technique on the little lady

Hopefully it will shed the skin, but it could die . Mist it for another day and see what happens ? Splitting with the blade isn’t to hard just be careful
I did the razor , my steady call of duty hands helped 😂😂

Seedlings and young clones must stay moistened and never dry out. Plants like to dry out between watering. Seedlings and clones can't handle the stress of it as well.
