Hey All,

So I live in a medical state in the US, and when it came time to renew my medical card I decided to get into growing so I checked that box "Do you plan on growing?" YES. Did some research, got what I wanted for tent, vent, light, soil, everything. Looked around for where to get seeds, went with DCSE and got some 3thirteen Citrus MILF, which also lead me here.

So I started my first grow last Monday the 29th of June, planted two Citrus MILF seeds into jiffy pellets. Friday the 3rd of July, one had broke ground. Sunday I noticed roots coming out of the pellet that broke ground so I decided to transplant both into solo cups.

I know I probably should have left the one not above ground alone, but I found out I have the ability to get a free clone should I choose and since I only purchased tags to grow 2 plants I figured if it never sprouts I can grab a clone and still be at 2 plants. So what I did was open up the jiffy pellet to see what was going on with the other seed, and it had sprouted it's taproot but the end/tip of it looked like it was curled. I don't know what that means, first time and all and had seen other people have germinated in a paper towel then plant to solo cups with soil, so that's what I did. Transplanted the one above ground and removed the seemingly germinated seed from the jiffy pellet and planted it into solo cup. I also think I planted the seed too deep the first time.

I'm using coco loco and I gave both some distilled water. The one above ground is still doing good, still growing. The one not above ground is still not above ground lol. Anyway I wanted to say "Hey" and see if I get any feedback on my actions this far.

WELCOME @Blackbeard . Not hard to plant a seed to deep. I try to keep mine about a quarter inch from the surface. Probably best to start a journal and don't be afraid to ask questions someone should be able to help. Good luck on the first grow. Also great choice on the genetics i have three of that strain going right now.

Also @Blackbeard your avatar reminds me of something i have on my wall. I found this piece of a old sailing ship while surf fishing after a big northeaster. The brass fastener was shinny like gold ( i thought for a second that i had struck it rich :ROFLMAO:) and after washing it off i could see all of the worm holes in the wood that came from the Caribbean. Took it to a museum and was told that it was indeed a couple hundred years old. Just guessing on the Blackbeard part:ROFLMAO: VA nauticle pics 004.JPG

Welcome @Blackbeard
You'll find out soon enough that youre in good company. No shortage of kind & knowledgeable folks around here.
Also, that 3Thirteen Seeds "Citrus MILF" was a fine choice...though I may be a bit partial :p
In my experience with seeds in plugs/jiffy's...the seeds usually have a way of finding up or down when they are planted a tad deep (or have curly taps). Might just take a few more days than expected, but I'd still expect it to find the light and grow out just fine.

Welcome @Blackbeard glad you found us, and I'm sure you'll feel the same. We are here to help with any questions you may have along the way. You will be on your way to a great harvest in no time with the encouragement and advice from our fine community.

As @Capt. C mentions above - a Grow Journal will not only help you get feedback, but also help you reference your grow, from timeline to "learning from your experiences." Looking forward to seeing it. And great choice of genetics (y)
