let's get it we have questions you guys have the answers we already know i have questions and um
i'm just gonna kind of throw in what i've been doing with some some things with my plants and
i kind of want to know what you guys are doing um just want to broaden my horizons we talking
about seedlings in germination yes if you're curious that's what this video will be about
seedling questions we'll tell you guys our methods and then tell us what you guys do because maybe
ours isn't the best we kind of been sticking with kind of the same yeah and in my seedling stage
i've been doing the same thing and it's been kind of working for me yeah but i just kind of
want to broaden my horizons and see what other people are doing and what are working for them
right i feel like our success rates are pretty good i feel like most of our seeds pop but i
have had some that haven't though we know there's a million methods and you guys we want feedback so
yeah let's get this ball rolling yeah so first one is how do you guys germinate
how do you guys germinate i personally do don't cringe uh the paper towel method and i
have been putting it in just a little container right until they seem ready for soil yeah so
we've been sticking with that since the beginning really like uh just a paper towel method get it
wet put a little water on top we were doing plates on each other uh we never really did
the zip well we did do ziploc ziplocks and hanging them tap roots did grow down that was kind of neat
but we don't i don't we don't do that every time but so we just kind of rely
back on the paper towel method which we've had great success with but there's definitely
drawbacks like i noticed sometimes the tap roots that they're growing vigorously will weave
into the um paper towel and then suddenly you're trying to like do some what was that game you
know you don't want to break the tap root what's that game remember when you're a kid and you're go
operation you try not to like ruin this little baby you're trying to oh it's a real it's a real
game right so yeah we just kind of stuck with the paper towel method but it's worked well yeah so i
mean how do you guys do like what's your go-to method and is it really successful just really
easy i see some people just put them in water and just wait for the tap root to pop out and then put
it in maybe that's the easiest never we've never tried that remember when you tried the peat pucks
zero percent success rate well let's tell you guys that so i don't know what we did wrong there but
yeah when you guys start them out your germination process like just let us know
in the comments everybody get great feedback super knowledgeable community we're learning so
much people on the discord dropping knowledge for days for real let us know in the comments
how you do that um well and then also next is how how often do do you water your seedlings
yeah that's a good one so struggle when when they first come up would you water them um i
when i first put my seeds in the dirt um i take the paper towel that i have been
germinating them in and then i kind of do the squeezer just so i know that i'm not
over watering i didn't want to grow serious um but then i kind of just i check on them at least
once a day and i just kind of give them a little squirt yeah if it's looking dry yeah yeah for me
the paper towel i think it works really well for at least the first week yeah i feel like usually
what i'm doing is i'm kind of like i have like a water i'll get a water bottle because i know
it's just like pure distilled and i'll just like give give it a little and that works for you you
know yeah if it's if you're waiting for it to actually pop up and see if it's out i'll just
go kind of in a circle around where i know it is planted because i don't want to depending
on the soil sometimes it's looser you pour right on it can dislodge it or move the seed
so i usually try and go around it and then once it's up and it has some kind of root action
going on to keep it there you know sometimes i'll use the mr top and just missed real heavy
that is nice you know the pump thing is nice but then it's like as soon as it starts to need more
it's like mister is way too slow and you rip the end piece off i feel like just i don't know that's
more with it like you don't want to overdo it obviously you don't need to like wet the whole pot
you only need a really i think just for us because we use soil i think it completely depends on
your probably your medium yeah if you have a more airy mix it's going to dry out faster heavier in
the soil it's going to stay moist longer so you just kind of look at it and kind of gauge
obviously you don't want it too dry but once your seedling's up you know sometimes i will leave a
cup on top of it for a couple days it's just kind of humidity and keeps it humid and you know but
we've done it plenty of times where we just let it go yeah that's another thing i was gonna ask
do you guys have any special things that you guys do for your seedlings versus like a veg stage
um like personally i like to put a little dome on top of my seedlings to kind of keep the dome yeah
to keep that moisture so that i'm not i know i'm not over watering it but i'm watering i find at
least once a day maybe maybe every other day but i again i'm only doing little drips i have lost
seedlings but for the most part i i have a pretty good success rate those are just the bad seeds
but i do a special thing as far as like the dome yeah um and i've heard of
heating pads and really i feel like when it's ceiling stage just not brave just a little bit of
water at your discretion you don't want to flood it out you know and just a little bit every day
you don't want it drying out basically because if it dries out it's going to die real fast
as a seedling stage versus you're in later veg you know typically with the autos and the soil
kind of mix we're using i feel like we just kind of every other day kind of situation yeah and i
usually just go by the feel and if it still feels heavy like two days i'll wait another
day you know so it's not veg veg stage uh versus seedling i'll go ever sometimes i'll go a couple
days yeah depending on how much you don't want to over water it but you wanna you know yeah
i feel like i water more in veg than i do in bloomberg yeah sometimes depending on how late let
us know like what's your kind of water scheduling through the seedling phase and when you start
you know we always looking to improve and we know you guys have all the great ideas yeah also um
wondering how many of you guys transplant your seedlings i know a lot of you guys grow photos
yeah we personally grow autos um how many of you guys transplant your seedlings into a bigger pot
right i personally do i do this at all you catch some flack for the solo cup i do i see the appeal
though like i'm kind of anti-solo cup but i'm also kind of pro solo cup because one thing
that's nice is like if you don't have time to mix up your whole pot of soil but the beans ready
you can put it into a solo and start it and you know see if it goes but also in the same notion
mix up a whole pot put the bean right in there and it never ends up really making it well then
now you got this whole pot sitting here yeah you can sometimes pop another bean and put it in but
it can be just kind of you know a thing yeah so and that's what i've actually ran into so
that's why i i mean that's another reason why i do like the transplant i do them young enough though
where i don't think it really what would you say around three weeks before then i think around two
really just as long as between a week two and three yeah because i mean you've been doing it
since we started on the channel pretty much with the solo cups and then into the final pot i've
pretty much done into the final pot with all of mine uh minus the ones we did before colorado um
uh but other than that i still just do into the final pot some people are like oh transplant but
you've been doing it this whole time and yeah i haven't noticed any of that like they've always
just taken off like fine like you put it in there and they just keep beasting out like we've
so i don't know maybe maybe that's more of an autoflower myth uh but you know we we haven't
personally seen that you you do all the time and continue to and i'm probably gonna continue to and
they do they do well and they finish out in their same time and yeah so and they turn out huge so
who knows maybe that's a myth so you guys autos transplant not final pot always i want to know
what you guys are doing people do the peat pucks the rock wool like are people doing that with
autism with that yeah if you do we're curious we're curious let us know on all these things
we talked about in the comments below guys we know you have tons of info we just wanted to share kind
of what we're doing and then get some feedback and maybe improve our process so i want to know what
works for you guys so maybe maybe i can work on my process right we we figuring it out but thanks
