So i got my seeds a week ago, they are royal dwarf strain, i germinated then planted them. My seed is popped up and i can see the stem a little tiny bit, the seed seems to be cracked on both sides but its just not growing, i tugged on it alittle to see if it would come up easy, it did not want to come up, i know the fresher the seed the longer it takes. I think its because the roots have started to grow thats why its a little difficult to pull it out. im just curious because its been a week and a day, the seed is cracked showing little bit of the stem/not too much..what is your thoughts? Im a newbie at autoflower strains. If you need a picture i will be sure to take one.
thank you very much!

next time let the tap root get a bit longer in the paper towels before you put in dirt, don't touch it ..you are going to kill it

yea.. the main theme with growing weed is WAITING.. you will be waiting forever.. so please learn to be patient

you wait for seeds to come in the mail
you wait for the seed to germ
wait for the seed to break ground
wait for it to finish seedling stage
wait for 3-4th node to give nutes
wait for preflowers to show in flowering
wait to finish
wait to flush
wait to dry
wait to cure
then wait for your new seeds to come in the mail

Why spend your time in pre-germ in paper towels if you can fill a pot witt good soil make a 1cm hole and put the seed inside, add water, let the pot in a warm place, no in direct sun light! wait 3 diay and you will start to see how they grow up from soil. No paper towel to soil stress, and always works. Saludos!

thats true some seeds just no germ, personally use 500cc pots to germ, them re-pot to the finally pot.

Just leave the little fucker be. Sometimes the sprouts will look like crap for a week before they slowly start to get some shoulders. Just mist it in the morning then the night, don't touch it, don't even breathe on it and give it time, I have learned the hard way and now I have more success cause of patience.

BTW I will keep using the paper towel method because it just works, as long as the plant survives to 8 nodes and a outdoors transplant, all is well. But I don't knock those who like putting in the soil, I just like knowing and seeing the actual sprouts before I make pots all lined out.
