A customer has a question or concerns and I hope we can get some opinions on it, thanks
“I got the seeds and I can’t keep them alive. Some of them germinated but they just die after I put them in soil. I’m really not good at this. I had the pineapple haze, strawberry kush, and blueberry. I did the distilled water cup to wet paper towel to transplant to cup in soil. They grow out of the soil sometimes and some do not come out of soil even with tail out and then after a week or two fall over and die. I try to support the stem with a toothpick but the baby does not recover and ends up drying up. It is so frustrating! I just want to pull my hair out. I use t12 fluorescent light once I transplant the seeded tail to soil. I keep the seedlings that sprouted in closed closet so the humidity is around 70-80 and temperature is a stable 75 F. My friend is an experienced grower and he said use the peat moss pellet and I took my last three seeds and tried that and they germinated in a dome with closed vents and grew more than before and I supported the stem with more soil before it would fall over. I thought I was in the clear and they were going to make it but then the supported stem got really thin near the base and it slowly died over the week. I almost lost my marbles when the last seedlings died. Used no nutrients just distilled water, no Co2, didn’t use humidifier(in Houston it is always humid). Barely even watered them at because I know you can easily drown them. The pellets hold plenty of water according to my experienced grower friend. I think if I keep them in the dome longer they might have lasted longer but I have not successfully grown from seed to adult. My grower friend (10 years growing. He is a master grower. The dankest weed I ever smelt he grew) said the seeds need to come from a reputable seed bank in order to get good strong seedlings. His philosophy is kill off anything that is weak or showing signs of weakness because not worth raising. He said there’s a lot of weak mother plants that should not have their seeds sold but he said its just money to those companies. Anyways let Me know what you think. Thanks for listening”
