    seeds-germination Oldest seeds you’ve ever germinated?

    I found a bag from probably from 2015- 2016 maybe with a bunch of different varieties of seeds I had saved from what I was growing. One in particular I hope germinates is Jamaican Hot Chocolate Habanero, also dropped some 7 pot primo, Monster Naga, White Ghost Hab ( what I called it, was...

    indoor-growing Light distance from seedlings?

    What is the proper light distance from seedlings? I know it matters with what type of light, but a low watt full spectrum grow tube from Walmart for example. Researching on the internet of course you can get 2 totally different answers, one I looked at said 1-3 inches, the other said 18-24...

    seeds-germination Number of seeds per cell?

    I read the disclaimer, I end up with what I end up with. I’m excited either way! I ended up with about 20+ varieties by the time they threw in a few freebies

    plant-care Why are my seedlings falling over?

    Not as leggy as Fins, but once they initially break through, adding just a little, maybe 1/4 at most

    plant-care Why are my seedlings falling over?

    This isn’t a question for Fin, but a question for others commenting, in the past I used to leave my seed flats a little low when I filled them up and once the sprouted add a little more ( not a crazy amount) to basically eat up some of the stalk the seedlings were developing. It seemed to...

    seeds-germination Number of seeds per cell?

    I haven’t grown from seed in a few years, being first year back, packs I ordered say 10+ per pack which seems to be about 15-18 seeds in a pack with what I’ve planted so far. So I’ve been doing 2, one pack had 11, I did singles on it, once I save some seeds this year I be able to put more next...

    seeds-germination Number of seeds per cell?

    I meant out of a pack of seeds, are you trying to end up with 3 plants,4,5, more? If doing multiple seeds I usually try to keep the best one of the pellet or cell and cut the others, but if you only have 10+ to start and triple plant them you could end up with 3 maybe. I’m going to end up with...

    How many of one variety of plant are you trying to keep?

    seeds-germination Number of seeds per cell?

    Do you guys drop 2-3 seeds per cell or just go singles? Or do you buy multiple packs to have more seeds to be able to put multiple seeds? I ended up getting seeds from Matt’s Peppers and White Hot Peppers and they both exceeded my expectations in what I got and how quick they delivered them...

    indoor-growing Grow light?

    I keep seeing dimmer, what’s the purpose of dimming? I see on the light spectrum page of the link you sent it speaks about 5000k (blue/white) for growth not flowering which is all the cheap light is and it’s a 300w light, I’m not concerned with flowering, they will be place out side after...
