Update 2

I posted a few days ago on this subreddit, wondering if the seeds would germinate. Well, they did! After the 3-week mark, I plan to transfer these seedlings into fabric pots to continue their growth. I’ll also cut down the male plants to prevent pollination. I’m going to grow them outdoors. Now that they’ve sprouted, I’ll follow up next week to update you on their progress.

I know you can’t see the lamp in the picture, but it actually fell onto the cups the first day. Surprisingly, all the cups remained upright, and there was no damage to the seeds. (Check my first post for a picture of the poor light setup.) As you all suggested, I’ve moved the light closer and am now taping it much more frequently. I notice that the adhesive loses its stickiness after a day of sticking to the wall. Also, I see that the seeds are on top of the stems and appear to be falling off. I’ll post an update next week.

Am I cooked?

First time growing. Cant let anyone I live with know I’m growing. Using dirt from outside (New York soil) and approximately 10% extended nutrient release potting mix, I put this together with the cannabis seeds already germinated not knowing if they are even a female plant. I would’ve used 100% potting mix but I don’t have any organic mix (AI told me not to use the kind I have unless I only use a little bit of it mixed with another soil) I intend on moving these outside into the grass after 2-3 weeks if they even sprout. I am going to get perlite and mix it with water and turn it into a slurry to spray in to see if that helps because it says the the main problem with using local dirt is drainage and compactness issues. Also I’m not even using a real grow lite lmao just duck taped my shitty lamp on the wall. So please, experienced growers, let me know if there’s anything else I can do to increase my odds of these seeds surviving the next 2-3 weeks. The left side I have candy man, and the right side I have sour candy.
