Hey everyone,
First, big thanks to @gbd and @mephisto for making these and for the discount for Black Friday on them. I have told gbd and Mitch, but I actually had/have original Space Dawg seeds from Subcool over a decade ago. So I am pretty excited to see an Auto form of it! Good choice @gbd

Now on to the show. I only started 2 Cosmic Queens seeds. Both germed super FAST and we're above ground 12-24 hours later. I planted them in clear 9oz cups. I planned on transplanting 1 into Super Soil Coco and 1 into 1 gal pot with Airdome straight Char Coir Coco.

Well as my luck would continue with shipping issues, the store closest to me had their Coco stuck at Airport when I went, I ran out. I only use Char Coir. Won't switch. So, They did have Cloud Coir Coco, same thing..with Perlite. Needing some I picked it up. I have a Gold Glue and a Bluetoof in the Cloud Coir and they are doing very well. I did NOT use Airdomes. As the Perlite will make them dry out faster anyways.

So, I transplanted the 2 Cosmic Queens yesterday. We will call today day 9 from seed. The Cloud Coir was used in 1 gal pots. The Cloud Coir dries out much faster than regular Char Coir in those small 1 gal containers. No Airdomes needed with Cloud Coir in such a small pot. I would use in a 2 gal maybe with Airdomes. Risk of drying roots excessively goes up by a lot in a 1 gal pot with Airdomes. You really have to water often.

Will take pics tonight. They are growing fast already. I predict a couple really fast and healthy plants are headed my way.
 
Day 11 from seed! Day 2 post transplanting. Looking pretty good for day 11, nice and fast! Blowing the 24 Carat out of the water that I started same time. Actually a day earlier! Cosmic Queen [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG]

F'ing impressive for 11 days. After borrowing your germ and solo cup setup I am seeing some fast stuff too. I have a DP above ground 1.5 days after I put the taproot in the solo cup. So call it 2 days for germ plus 1.5 days is 3.5 days to break ground. For me that is a record. Thanks for all the help Slow!

Having temps closer to 85F will speed up the germ process even more. Super glad you have one up already. You don't have to cover the seed with much Coco, sometimes that can slow things down by a day. You will have nice seedlings soon.

Btw, premoistening your toilet paper a day before actually placing seeds between the layers will speed things up too. I just put some moist toilet paper in a Ziploc on top of a tent. 85F typically on top of it. Let sit til tomorrow, then putting 2 CDCL Seeds in. Let's see how fast things go with them. I will document everything and take pics to help others out. I count day 1 on my seeds when the seedling is up, shell off, and first leaves out.

How many days at 85F do you keep a seedling? I'm flowering in the same area and don't think I want to keep it at 85 for that long.

Running 80-85 With Coco Is Actually totally Fine The Whole Grow...unless Your Humidity is Crazy High. But to answer your question, 85f it's to help germinate and sprout seed faster. U can reduce it once they are up if you prefer. If you try to germinate in 75f temps, things will go slower!
