ChubbyBudBros Second try... I tried to sprout a seed last week, but I messed up and killed the seed by having the taproot come off.
Seed germinated by placing it in a glass of water until taproot shows, then transferred to damp paper towel, until taproot length was ok to be plant) and planted on August 18.
Soil mixture which was pre-soaked with 2,5 liters of bottled water.
Bottom Layer (~8.8L):
5L Biobizz Soil
2.1L Worm Castings
1.8L Perlite
Middle Layer (~6.6L):
3.7L Biobizz Soil
1.7L Worm Castings
1.8L Perlite
Top Layer (~5.5L):
3.2L Biobizz Soil
1.8L Perlite
Day 1. 2 days after planting the seed it sprouted above the soil line, but the seed shell was still stuck on it.
Day 2. The seed shell was still stuck so I misted her with some water and put a humidity dome over her. An hour later the shell had come off, yay!
Day 4 since spouting and she doesn't seem to be doing much yet. I increased the PPFD from 160 to 230 and watered with 150ml water and a few drops of Biobizz acti-vera.
Day 5. the first true leaves are showing up, still very small but they're growing!. increased PPFD to 250 and lowered light to 45cm.
