Too much seedlings in one pot.

Hello, I'am new to growing and I put about 12 seeds in red solo cup and have been watering and making sure they get light. they have sprouted, all of them, and they're seedlings. What should I do, or how should I remove them and put them into a new bigger pot. Any tips help thank you.

I’m a rookie too but I’m told each seed needs its own pot

Get containers ready for all. Dump your cup out and separate the seedlings. Dust roots with beneficials like Mykos and transplant. The sooner the better.

Only one of those is cannabis.

Dump them now. Accept the fact you screwed up and you’re going to lose some of them most likely.

Fill more cups with DAMP Black Gold Seedling Mix. Use a pencil to make a good size hole that’s wider at the top. Dust roots and drop into the hole leaving just leaves above ground and tamp the medium down. Do not water for a few days!

Pay attention to what @DarkWeb said. He might be right.

Darn.

Actually I would wair a week before separating them. Give them some time to develop some structure before you tug at their heartstrings. You might find the little guys developing mature leaves.

Thank you guys

Pull out everything except the one with the jagged leaves. Pull out the round shit it’s grass.

Only one is actually cannabis plant, the one with serated edges.
Pull the rest and just grow the one!

You have good advice already so I won't add anything other than don't plant multiple seeds in same container again, it's just asking for trouble. Roots mingle together and tangle. Most try to avoid problems but your method is begging for them. Good luck.

So you have 12 seedlings in a small cup. Lord what told you tat would be a good idea . One seed per pot. You can do mabe two seeds in a 12 gallon storage bucket. That is not good. You just killed 12 plants

They are grass seedlings not cannabis

If you planted 12 weed seeds at least 8 of them would have popped if not all.

I call bullshit. Between the pic and your AV this is a troll job.

With the exception of the one sprout with "true" serrated leaves, I'm not going to comment on what is or is not cannabis in your picture.

Prepare separate solo cups for each of the sprouts you would like to keep. Transplant one sprout per cup. You'll figure it out.

I'd wait a few days before transplant. The sprouts are extremely fragile right now. Two, three or even four days is likely not enough for the roots to get too bound together to separate. If you can wait until they all have their first set of serrated leaves, they should be robust enough to hande the transplant. When transplanting, do not pull on the sprouts. You do not want to damage the roots or separate the sprout from the the roots. Place your hand over the top of the cup, invert the cup and gently dislodge the entire volume of soil. You can then - again, gently - break up the soil and separate the sprouts. If any are bound together, you can rinse them with water to try to separate them. You may lose one or two.

Best of luck and let us know how it goes.

I have no idea what possessed you to grow other plants with your pot. Just when I though this couldn't get any dumber

Well..... clover is a nice companion plant to grow in same pot for weed.

Next year I'm gonna grow garlic plants to keep around my outdoor plants as well. But those won't be grown in the same pot.

Question is your companion plant similar to a spotter? It better be one big plant!
