Well i actually lost 4 galactic god seeds in the beginning because the helmets got stuck. It was the seed skin and it was to tough. Choked them out. That was a kick ass strain too bad i lost them. So from then on i normally pull them off. Some genetics are rare and i dont chance them to nature because i have lost other strains because of shells. If you only have say 1 seed you could lose it. I spent a lot of time trying to get old seeds to open and taking the shells off at different stages to see what happens to the seed if you take them off to soon. Seeds only have so much energy stored and can only grow so much before they die. So i like to maximize the time they have to get shell off. I feel they have more energy to open up and drive the tap root down faster if there out of the shell sooner so they can open the cotyledons and use there food supply quicker.

What light are they under Prey? Looks too white to be the LUXX.

So you like these better than the LUXX seedling lights you bought? And of course LUXX is now out of business.

When did you go to the little mini cups? Have you started transplanting sooner?

Wish they made them in 2’ length. My seedling box is made for 2’ and holds my 6 plant limit perfectly.

They make them in 2foot. Hydrobuilder has them. There $2 cheaper but i try not to post places cheaper when growers house is the creator of this site. Its kinda Rude so i try and refrain from that. They were out of stock on the 4fts 2 days ago. Now they have a bunch. I would call em and tell em you can get them cheaper on hydrobuilder site. You’ll get em.

I went mini cups because there easier. The bags were choking the roots to where i didn’t like it. So i can use the smallest amount of promix to plant the seeds in. Its cost effective because i wash the tiny cups in under a minute and re-use em.

Whats your ceiling height? You need at least 82" for a decent tent.
