video Timelapse Video of Chilli Seed Germination

Hi,
I've been growing chillies for a few year. This year I've started making timelapse videos. This is my first video of a Fresno Supreme chilli seed germination.
 
It's not gone as well as I planned and there's room for improvement.
 
Any comments/tips most welcome.

Not bad for a first timer. Im also making some timelapse of peppers fruiting this year. 
 
What kind of camera you're using? Im using a Canon DSLR, so i set it to manual focus. 
 
Im guessing, your interval is around 60 sec? Just my preference, try 4 or 5 minutes interval. 
 
Anyway, it's all part of the experiment so im sure you'll figure out the best settings. Looking forward to see more videos

Thanks for the tips.
 
I am shooting using an old Samsung Galaxy S4 mobile phone.
 
The original shoot was every 60 seconds. The chilli germinated in growth spurts. I had to speed up the video around the growth spurts during editing to smooth out the final video. The beginning is of the video is around one frame every 8 minutes, the end section is around one frame every 4 minutes.
 
I have made another video, I will create  grow log shortly.
