good start!
add nothing until you see the first jagged leaves (true leaves) then 1/8 strength till they get a few nodes...

OK thanks. I felt like they were really dry today when I woke up so I watered lightly around the edges because it was like 8am and already 70 degrease out and its supposed too hit low 80s today. I'll post a pic of one of the cups up close and u guys can give !me your opinion

If they are in direct sun, IMO they need to stay wet as seedlings. Sun is so intense on the top few layers of dirt, and small containers dry out fast.
Well I keep them wet just not soaked n dripping out the bottom. I only water it around d the edges once a day in the morning n then start spraying the tops lightly by 1ish and I also took the plastic off the tops anyone think I should have them on? I figured it would get too hot and wet and rott the seeds

Well day 7 and nothing. I sent for 3 more Frisian dews and 4 more white widow x big bud. I'm so sad these ones didn't pop threw the dirt :( but I hopefully will have the new ones before June 1st. Anyone think that's too late too start them in southern Pennsylvania?

I know how you feel...but...i've had seeds take as long as 14 days to sprout...I normally just sew them directly into the soil without germination etc.., but I'd still give em a day or tow and see if the might still pop.

I live in Norcal...weather has been unseasonably cold here and it's supposed to be like that until June. So, I'm not sure about S, Penn but I've had decent harvests on seeds I've planted in June, no problem.

Awesome thanks! And I'm leaving them go but don't have high hopes for them that's why I reordered more seeds. The weather has been nice up until today it was cold windy and rainy. Should be gone tomorrow so hopefully I can start my autos soon at least too pull the money I blew on everything back into my pocket.

Did u germinate seeds in paper towel first ?
If not id recommend it as once tap root show and its in the dirt 3 days of sun is enough to push it above soil..
Everytime

I've always germinated my seeds in a cup of water till tails start popping out then right into soil. Like u said 3-4 days n there up. Idk why I'm having so much trouble this time...prob cause I put money into seeds this year and god hates me so why would they work out right lol

Just thought I might ask. Has anyone had any problems getting seeds from Herbie's that crack open and grow a small tail and then stop? All my seeds have been like that from this whole order and I don't think I'm at fault for this. At least I'm pretty sure. If anyone has any insight about this please please please let me know!!!!! Thanks!!!!

Did they get cold after you put them in the soil? Can can kill a taproot instantly
Temperatures have been low at night for the last week like avg of 50 deg. That shouldn't kill them just slow them down as they are in my house at night where its prob another 20 deg warmer maybe 15 at least by the windows
