I'm starting this a lil late, but better late than never! I had a pepper plant in a pot, but with it being winter, i pulled it up, root and all, and figured if it was good enough for peppers, it was good enough for mj. I started by planting 3 ungerminated seeds into the soil 3/4 of an inch down. 3 days later, BAM! i have 3 beautiful sprouts. now, they had started stretching for a while, but after putting two 100 watt cfl's beside it, they have stabilized.
