Glad to hear you decided to give growing a try.
Sorry to hear about the losses so early on.
I'd like to offer an alternative method for germinating seeds.
This method has served me well over the years.

I'm subbed up and will be following your progress

Very interested in the Crackberry:drool:

Hey thanks for the support! I was sad that I made such an obvious mistake with the over watering.

How deep did u plant the seed? Reason I ask is cuz i planted too deep once and she grew her leaves under the soil and died.

Hey bro just shot u a message! Sorry for the late reply!! I have a Lil tip.. after moistening up the coir and planting the seed, put a plastic cup over it. That keeps it moist all day and humidity high.

Subbed up man. Crack berry sounds bomb!!

Do you usually just sow the seed with no soaking?

Because that's what I did this morning bc apparently that's what I'm best at since the Crackberry is the Lone Survivor hahaha.

I am also using Mitch's Mephisto germination method on the Fantasmo right now. It's sitting on my router covered and in a DVD case.

I shall be back in a few days with more sprouts then my tent can handle :smoking:

Hopefully!

I'm only going down a 1/4 to a half inch.

I use a pencil eraser side, that has no eraser so 3/4 the length of the metal piece approximately.

I use the paper towel method. It's what I learned in 3rd grade when we planted lima beans lol
But stick with what works for u!!

Okay so I'd like some input/diagnosis on my Crackberry "Lone Survivor" Navy Seal seedling lol. Since I know I was over watering and I'm using fabric pots, I used a small fan to dry it out some. The cotyledons are curled downward, first true leaves angled up. Led's are approx 8-10" above pots. Is this cotyledon curling normal, or the result of over watering previously? I want to make sure this baby seedling makes it, and I suppose I'm lucky since it is a photoperiod and she'll have a good chance of dealing with my mistakes since I can keep her in veg etc as long as she lives through these first few weeks. She is about an inch tall.
