Some cute things happening.

The already germinated seed with about half and inch of root sticking out sprouted first while the other seed which was planted when JUST cracked shows no news yet. it's still in the pot with the plastic wrap on.

soil's lookin a bit dry so i might water it soon. otherwise, very healthy looking green leaves.

quite optimal conditions as shown by the thermometer

DAY 4

QOTD

I fucked up guys lol

tried to dig the surface soil out a bit to try and let the sprouting occur more easily and tore the top part of the already sprouting plant up :/.....

pulled out a 3 inch long root by mistake..

i don't know why it took so long for that seed to sprout.. i guess i was pretty impatient..

started germinating one of the free seeds again. no more mistakes during germination/sprouting any more for sure. got to be patient.

im not seeing drastic changes in the other plant yet.

DAY 6

I think it took long because i planted the seed a little deeper than normal, and further, the seeds hadn't fully germinated (no root sticking out). the seed had just cracked when i planted it.

i hope this provided a good comparison between planting when the seed has a nice root sticking out, and when the seed has just cracked.

i observed faster results with a seed that had a nice root sticking out
