Hey there. Need an advice

So this is what happened. I put 6 white widow auto flowers ungerminated straight in 5 gallon pots about an inch down. Poured a cup of water on there after I buried them. Soil was ffof 30%, biobizz light 40% and 30% pearl light. Thoroughly watered the soil the night before planting and placed pots in tent under two 600 and 4 T5.

Today is day 3. I went down and brushed a little soil back and three of them popped up but no sign of the other three. Should I try to brush more soil back or just wait and see. Sorry I’m a new guy. Temp. Is 79 to 84 and humidity is 65% to 75%

be patient

Leave them alone, keep the soil moist but not wet. An inch down is a little deep but they will pop if they want, messing with the soil is not going to make things better but may harm them ime. They can take a week or more to break the surface and disturbing them will not speed things up.

just wait n see, not all seeds are created equal, some my take up to 7 days to pop.
an inch is a little too deep for my likeing, i just put them 1/2 inch at most into the compost, bury them, then i get a soda bottle and a pin or thin nail and poke loads of holes in the bottle top and use it as a shower head for the soda bottle, makes watering a sinch.
its direct and the right size for watering seedlings to young plants.

Next time pop them in a solo cup of mild soil instead of straight into a large container.

Not only will they build a compact root ball but that will explode when time to transplant into final size.

I've had seeds soak in water 3 day before planting, not show a tail befor planting and sprout after 15days in soil
