Beths First Grow Journal

Oh and I have to say : I don’t know if it’s @hoppiefrog‘s regular technique for germinating seeds, but it’s the one recommended by Aficionado. If we do it their way, they guarantee germination… :nerd_face:

Sorry I was well into a buzz… exactly what @PreyBird1 said but yes I germinate in a paper towel or a 2oz solo cup…with water…

Of all the thousands of dollars I have spent on shit I probably don’t need the one thing I didn’t buy was a heat mat, which is currently in my cart but won’t be here for a few days.

Should I wait to pop my seeds until I get the mat?

I am so pissed. I have been waiting for this day for a fricking month. If I have to wait I will but I won’t be happy about it lol.

I have never used one… but that said I am going to start for at least cloning… you can start for sure… I have so many seeds I don’t worry about one… only because I have no more electrical outlets for growing as per wife…lol…but for cloning I can convince her…lol…she also finally has a rough idea of what I have paid for seeds at times…lol…some one had to of told her as I know I was taking that to my grave…lol…

If you have a cable or satellite box you can set them on there. That’s what I use. They produce enough heat to do the job.

On the other hand, the grow room rule about keeping your electrical stuff OVER the grow/liquid stuff is good too…:face_with_monocle:

I am ready for action. I have been evil eyeing my mailbox all damn morning.

In the picture, are my holes low enough on my cups or do I need to make them in the bottom also/or only on the bottom.

I was being creative with the soddering gun hahaha.

Right around the bottom lip for the holes.
You don’t want a water reserve for your solo cups.
Soil level is perfect. :+1::v:
