Okay I germinated the seeds on Aug 14 witching 24 hrs they all sprouted 2 about an inch the rest in between.
I planted them in soil on Aug 16.
I didn’t not water the soil straight up. I planted the seeds and then sprayed a little water on each.
water was phd .

I’ve been waiting since and still no sign of stems or anything coming out of soil. Should I wait longer?

Today is say 6 in soil. Day 8 including germination.
My temps have been 70-85.
humidity 70-80.

I do a light cycle of 18 on and 6 off.
I have a bag over them and they are in a dome.
Co2 bottle hanging. One fan is on to control temp and the in-line is on.

Thank you in advance.

I soak pot and let the roots chase the water. Pick up pots a few times a day of possible. Weigh when filling before watering even, seedlings are small and don't need much water. And start Lst asap!

I figured. I just dug them up and 4 were nowhere to be found the other 3 are longer . I replanted and watered light.
I’m just gonna start again.

I’d lose the bags on them if in the dome.
If your light doesn’t have a dimmer, raise it up to about 3ft away.
If the seeds haven’t popped yet/showing roots, toss them in a moist paper towel on a plate in a dark spot til they sprout tails. Then get them back in soil being sure not to damage the taproots.
Do you have any showing tap roots?

Keep it simple. When I was growing in soil, I always planted directly into my grow bag.

If you’re opposed to planting in your pot, then use something like a compressed peat pellet. Keep it a little moist and warm, with a tad bit of light. Should sprout just fine, then transplant into a container.

Also, just to mention, there’s no need to bury seeds extremely deep. I go 1/4-1/2”. And that co2 bottle ain’t doing shit.

Put seeds in soil, peat, coco, or whatever you're using and apply moisture and then provide light once they sprout. Ditch the dome, baggies over the cups and especially the CO2 bottle. No need for paper towels or a side of fries.
