I've Germinated the seeds, Now what?

I've germinated 10 seeds using the paper towel method, I have 1 inch Rockwool cubes. Do I place the germinated seedlings into the cubes inside of the cups before until I see roots coming out of the rockwool cubes before adding the soil. Or can I place the seedlings outdoors directly into the soil without even using the rockwool cubes?

read and do research...

and secondly... you shouldn't try growing until you have a basic knowledge of what the hell your doing.

your going about it the wrong way my friend.

You need to read and do research until you learn the basics of growing a plant.. before actually trying to grow one. Just my opinion though.

Good luck to ya.

I've read books and researched already, I just went about it wrong by rushing into a outdoor grow from my original plan to do an indoor hydro grow. ^^ but that still doesn't answer my simple ass question, but thanks anyway

no rockwool lil cups of soil outside.........or just stick em in the ground..............i like ez questions.........

but........thats an ez answer theres just a lil more to it

Thanks wayno, thats the simple answer I was looking for. How many hours on sunlight should I start them out with and Do you think I can use a walmart brand soil such as miracle gro until my shipment of Fox farm ocean forest soil arrives.

if you use miracle grow soil, make sure it doesn't have any ferts in it or you will burn those baby's, Try to find a small bag of pro-mix BX. I keep my seedlings on 24 light schedule until about 4 or 5 internodes, then gradually cut it back to 16/8

Start seedlings at 18 hours light 6 dark, that cycle will follow through until flowering. I used miracle grow for my first grow and regret it... It's not bad soil it's just easier to start with Black Cow, or Top Soil, something that you can have complete control over the nutes when you get them... Hope it helped

Thanks I haven't purchased any lights to control the lights cycle. I was just going to bring them to my back yard for a couple hours maybe 6-12 pm then place them back into my porch until they reach a certain point of growth. How many hours of sunlight would you suggest?

you need to getcha some lights, if that thing only gets 6 hours its gonna stretch on you, also be careful outdoors with the little ones, one little grass hopper can do a lot of damage quick.

Thanks, I've sprayed bonide animal repellent in my grow area so, inspects and pests isn't going to be a problem. Other than a horrible odor I haven't seen any animals in sight since I applied the spray. I thought about getting a light to start the plants out indoors but my wife is 100 % me growing. Lol. So I'm trying to keep a low profile at my home. That's why I'm still trying to figure out the amount of sunlight per day for my girls

just be careful, that you don't burn them in the hot part of the afternoon. I'd put them out 6-12 like you said, and back out when temps start to fall, around 5 or so. Also during the hot part of the day try to find a fern or something where they get some indirect sun.
