fuck i just deleted the message ... again lol
about the seeds i'll email the situation
when the seeds crack if they do put them in the starter cubes with the white tail facing down .(tap root)
water the top (about 1 tea spoon each) put them in the humidity dome and put in the airing cupboard for 24 hours then get the light ready and put the humidity dome under the light about 10 inches above the top and close the air holes
when the sprouts hit the surface start watering 1 teaspoon (5ml)a day per cube .. keep the air holes closed until the proper leaves have come out (im not talking about the first set of leaves .. we call them pre leaves . we dont use the proper name (cotyledon) lol .. im sure there would be spelling issues if we did .then open the airholes half way .. then when the next set of leaves come out open the air holes fully but keep the seeds in the humidity dome ..
only give them water at this stage nothing else !!!
a young seedling is like a baby .when a baby is born they only have milk (water obviously for plants lol)
when they are old enough they have solid foods (ferts for plants ) only give a plant ferts when it reaches about 7inches or when it starts to go yellow lol .. slightly lightening to the leaves is a sure sign of not enough nitrogen which is the main element in veg ferts .
when the tap root exits the block at the bottom you can either put into a dwc system or put into a net pot with clay balls and keep hand watering when the root come out the bottom of the net pot you MUST put it into a system!
no ferts! and superthrive is a additive not a fert so only add 1 drop per litre from the point where the second set of leaves come out .
when you do start ferting its a while yet but when you do you have to start them on 25% of the strength on the back of the bottle (for canna its 10ml per liter so 2.5ml per litre.. it doesnt sound alot i know but trust me this is the easyiest way, then when they start stretching you give them half strength ... you only give them full strength when they reach 12 inches + (then their considered as mature)
