can i mix my growing medium and fill my pots 2 or 3 days before i drop a seed in it ? i am gonna be using pro mix moisture control and viagro perlite
Yes and I think it's a good idea to do so 24 hrs before. After filling soak the media down to ensure its all moist. This will give it time to dry a bit and ensure you have a nice moist media and not soaking wet.can i mix my growing medium and fill my pots 2 or 3 days before i drop a seed in it ? i am gonna be using pro mix moisture control and viagro perlite
Few was to skin a cat... I think it's a benefit to wet it before. The time between allows it drain and not worry about over watering as they will already have some transplants shock. Plus no risk of roots in dry soil trying not to over water.If you need to yes, but I would keep it dry until ready to plant.
i got 6 plants popping out of the pro mix and perlite mix i was talking about i watered till run off when i made the mix a few hours later dropped the seed in that was 2 or 3 days ago the 5 pots are still wet is that good for the seedling 1 pot is starting to dry out a lilYes and I think it's a good idea to do so 24 hrs before.

I saw that stuff at walmart-real cheap compared to the hpcc I'm using. Might mix it next time.it took almost a gallon of water to soak each pot this stuff seems to really hold the water in
i think i put them a lil deeper but they all popped out of the topSeeds only 1/4 inch deep right?
5 gallon bucket with a 12 inch oscillating fan on it there is also another in the opposite corner sitting on the floor its a 9 inch it doesn't oscillateWhat's that in the corner by that pot.
Placement of pots can affect this if It's closer to a heat source or receiving more direct airflow on the soil.
Is there a bit more airflow around that pot?... switch the wettest one there are watch over a few days if it dries a bit faster... im betting it does5 gallon bucket with a 12 inch oscillating fan on it there is also another in the opposite corner sitting on the floor its a 9 inch it doesn't oscillate
Nah you have plenty by the sounds of it... just rotate the pots a bit. It's not going to impact the plants. Just that one may need watered sooner but I think your a ways from that. The pots should be light before you water again.well should i have more airflow or is it normal for pots to dry at different rates
In a mixed coco soil treat it like soil. Check runoff here and there.im starting to wonder if i made a mistake or maybe im just worrying too much for nothing i watered 5 or 6 days ago and there still wet the seedling do like fine
