Hello guys, i live in the uk so my climate is somewhat changable to say the least, but i watched my brother grow some stunning plants last year with no lights or anything, just starting them off indoors, and gradually letting them accustom themselves to the outside as they got bigger and the weather got warmer. This year my brother has moved out so its my turn. I have purchased some deeds from a website, i have 10 AK'S, one caled acid paradise , and one called acapulcha gold. This is what i have done so far please tell me if i have made and dire mistakes...
I planted 5 ak's and one acid, in small seedling pots, with a mix of 20% perlite, 15% vermiculite and the rest good quality compost i got from work its just general purpose stuff. I water them once thouroughly to get them all nice and damp, then put them in my aiaing cupboard for a few days as my friend said this would work, and sure enough this morning i took them out and they have all sprouted bar one, im starting wonder whether i dropped the seed out of the pot lol. But anywayz yeah so i have 5 seedlings now. My house it warm so i have just put them on my windowsill for now is that okay ? Also they look a bit yellowish in colour but my friend said thats beacuse i started them off in the dark and its the light that acivates the chlorophyyl to make them go green. I will upload pictures soon of the progress so if you guys have tips please feel free to let me know :)
