If you keep CFL on them close they don't stretch. However your method is good. Roots will shoot from the sides as far up as the dirt stays. You growers not using CFL or some other low-heat light source early remember this. I see straws split and meat skewers tied to them. Just fill your container with dirt right below the first leaves.i never fill the beer cup i germ seeds in with medium, i fill half way as the seedlings always stretch and i'm under a 600. i fill it after they stretch a bit instead of trying to stake em up which is a pain in the ass. i also try to keep temps around 80f and humidity around the same if i can get it that high.
,so thats basically the question above ! i have some seeds which broke ground and are growing their first set of leaves! so when should i pop the dome off and let these babys get some proper air circulation ?
stay high and happy!
I'm using t5's !,
if it's above the ground take the dome off, just keep your lights at a reasonable distance(depends on what lights you are using?)
Congrats, but don't confuse the use of a dome with germination success. Domes are not needed for germination and as previously stated, only increase your odds of damping off. Save the dome for clones.i got 17/19 to germinate in root riot under dome !!! great results !!
Nice going..do you put them in Rockwool or Jiffy Pellets..I always put them in Jiffy Pellets proud 100% Germination success..I don't trust myself with the paper towel method!! Grow on n good lucki got 17/19 to germinate in root riot under dome !!! great results !!
First 4 days closed open to let out air twice a day then open slots spray a lot keep dome onso thats basically the question above ! i have some seeds which broke ground and are growing their first set of leaves! so when should i pop the dome off and let these babys get some proper air circulation ?

That is terrible advice. Do that and your asking for mold.First 4 days closed open to let out air twice a day then open slots spray a lot keep dome on
It does help with humidity though especially if your in a place where its lowCongrats, but don't confuse the use of a dome with germination success. Domes are not needed for germination and as previously stated, only increase your odds of damping off. Save the dome for clones.
yep it certainly is, as soon as they are sprouted take the domes off, the light will do the rest!!That is terrible advice. Do that and your asking for mold.
I put them in root riots! Check it out! Its a brand that makes these plugs that u can put a clone or a seed in and its supposed to help with the root development! If u live in the US u should checkout the rapid rooters instead!N

yeah we get rapid rooters here too(UK) but i prefer the jiffies then straight into the soil, if it ain't broke?I put them in root riots! Check it out!
