Yellow leaves!! After transfer!!

Also, in case you didn't know I read that the best way to store seeds is in a cold dark place like a fridge.

Cold??? Damn I put them in a warm-dry- dark area

If I already started the papertowel/ water method but I decided randomly that I want to just put it in dirt because nothing else is wroking can I or should i just continue with what I've already started?

No, I meant for storing seeds long term like while you wait to germinate them. When you germinate, it is supposed to be like warm or at least room temperature. I do the floating method in room temperature.

Seeds aren't supposed to sink. You want them to stay floating. Never let them sink.

Shoot, I just realized I don't even remember whether they are supposed to sink. I think that comes from the paper towel method if I remember correctly right? It's when they sink that you pull them out to germinate?

Anyways, with the floating method they are supposed to stay floating the entire time. They will grow a tail while floating.

I had seeds in a metal lock box for years and they started. I think cooler and dark is better but it can still work out

Not trying to pick a fight, just saying there are options

Smh there is so many ways. I need to find what's best for my plants because only one out of 7 is kinda crazy.

I respect your opinion. I'm glad to hear it. I actually wonder whether the fridge will keep them good for a year or two. That's why I try to rush through them so they don't die out before I get to use them which would be a waste. I don't have much experience with hanging onto seeds for years, little by little I'm seeing how long they last though.

I don't think seeds expire if well maintained they can last a very long time until damaged. Same I don't have no experience maybe I should learn to wait sometime but when you see the seed you feel like you have to hop into growing it lol

Note - seeds will sink as they absorb water. That’s an old wives tale about not sinking.

On a totally separate note, your plants look a little stretchy to my eyes. It’s tough to tell scale in the pics but if you can add a supplemental grow light it would be good. Cannabis really wants full sun and a window probably won’t get you where you want to go. If you transition them outside be careful to acclimate over a few weeks and put them in a larger pot.

I didn't mean to imply seeds "won't sink". I know they do. I just forgot whether them sinking was a part of the "successful" process of germinating them during that method. I know with floating they're not. So when they sink, might as well toss them.

Seeds will last for many years under refrigeration. They don’t really go bad if stored dry and airtight. One of my first grows was from hand me down seed stock stored in film canisters in a dudes attic under terrible conditions for 10+ years. I still got about 20% to grow. You can sprout seeds that are over 20+ years old reliably with a light dosing of Gibberelic Acid at seed soak.

Cool, will take this to heart.

So if I want to start putting them outside should I start leaving them out there for the normal amount of time i have them indoors with the light or start small and every day Extend a hour

That's unique one thing I do need to do is get a new indoor light source but there expensive

Yeah it’s called hardening off. You start with a few minutes in the shade, a little longer each day. Kind of work your way up over a week.

I hardened my sunflowers for three days and they’re doing well. I didn’t harden off my weed and it almost died. So it’s not an exact science, you just wanna give them a chance to adapt.

Age: 2 weeks and 13 hours( indoor plant)
Issue: Yellowing leaves


I'm seeking advice on a problem with my young plant, Daisy. She's just over 2 weeks old and has recently developed yellow leaves After transfer. I've attached before and after photos showing the change. The bottom two leaves have turned yellow, while the upper leaves remain normal.


Current care routine:

• Watering: Daily, using a water bottle cap amount
• Light exposure: 14 hours of sunlight per day

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions on how to address this yellowing issue and improve Daisy's health. Thank you in advance for your

If you're talking about the c-leaves don't worry. Just focus on the rest which looks pretty good. Also of you are able to bury half of that stem into the ground, it will develop more roots and increase the rate of the growth exponentially. Other than that as long as you're letting the soil dry out in between watering. Just let nature take it's course.

No problem. I forgot to attach photos of my new babies. I hate when people give advice but don't show their plants. These are 9 day old autoflowers. Corleone Kush, Blueberry, and Cookies and Cream. Will be transitioning them outside in about a week. Regardless of if they are leggy or not, I always leave room to bury half the stem to promote more root growth. I did this on like day 2 or 3. Looks like they're taking pretty well and they're more proportional up top. Just a cool little trick I learned along the way. Happy growings!!!
