Mazar, Cbd Life, Critical Cure GreenHouse Grow, Norway Part 2!
On the 15th I started seeds off with the new moon, and today 11 out of 13 has cracked open and they are now in soil under a small 25w led lamp. I am growing mainly medicinal weed, and its all for my personal use by the way..
I had some soil that we recycled from somewhere but its currently frozen solid to the ground so I had to go buy a small bag of soil suitable for seeds. Its always worth to spend money on soil , and money on seeds, instead of trying to cheat and ending up with either soil that has too much nutrients in it for seeds and baby plants which will just burn the leaves, or soil from the ground that has no structure to it.
Soil for nice plants the soil should be fluffy, not clayish or sandy, something in the middle. When its fluffy and spongy this is good, it holds moisture but also breathes.
Below is how i get the seeds out from the water without damaging the precious root tips- i use the water to move the seeds..
I had the seeds in the cups as shown in Part One

Today I simply poured them and the water into a bowl and then use a soup spoon to get them out, and then with the seed in some water , i slid it on to the soil.
Important stage Here the important thing to remember, is not to push the seed into the soil more than 5 mm deep or it will take a long time to start growing, or it will run out of energy and die.
Normally I have a spray bottle for water but iI think one of the dogs ate the spray part as I couldnt find it. So I made the soil wet first and then placed the seed onto the soil. If you dont use a sprayer to apply water to the soil, a flow of water onto a seed on fresh fluffy soil will just make it sink too deep to grow. Make sure the seed sits ontop of the soil just as it would fall onto the ground in nature and then just put it ever so gentle so its sat solid in the soil but you see the top half of it as you see here the CBD Life plant.
I must go buy a spray bottle yesterday already but tomorrows sunday so they will have to wait. its not so hot where they are and they have been soaking in water for 36 hours and so I know they wont dry out before I get a spray bottle.
Ive put them in a new plastic tray easy to move and clean so theres no nasty bacterias that will jump on the plants at the first chance they get! Ive marked the ones with seeds in with ear cleaners, again as they are sterile clean.
And now they are happy at home under their small replica of springtime, and in 10 days they should all be standing up ready to loose the shell!
Im not really a tech nerd but check this light out, a guy made it himself for growing chili plants..
Hope you enjoyed the read! And if you have any questions, im happy to answer best to my knowledge :) Stayed tuned for part 3!

Thinking about doing an outdoor with autoflowering
No deer around marshland :)

Im lucky there is a very small harbour 5 mins walk away, and very cheap mooring, so im sorted really plus im sure i wont ever get evicted lol
