Planting The Germinated Cannabis Seeds

Our White Widow x Big Buds and Special Kush #1 cannabis seeds have all germinated with 100% success in 48 hours. It's now time to get these germinated seedlings planted so they can begin they growing process. After planting the germinated seeds it usually takes one to five days to sprout a cannabis seedling.

Germination is successful when a seed is able to crack open and expose a small root. This root is known as a tap root and it will immediately begin looking for something to grab onto. I like to plant my germinated seeds when the tap roots are just beginning to pop out, even an 1/8" is fine. I do not let the tap roots get long, anything over 1/2" is considered to long. This is the most delicate stage of the plants life and any damage to the tap root will result in immediate failure.

We will be planting our germinated cannabis seeds into two gallon fabric pots filled with 100% coco coir. I have been watering the coco with plain water PH'd to 5.8-5.9 for about five days to flush and ph the coco before planting. Planting the germinated seed is simple and does not take much effort. You simply want to press a small hole 1/2" to 1" in the top of the coco, I just use my finger. Next drop the germinated cannabis seed into the hole and gently cover with moist coco. It is best to place the seed with the tap root facing down but is by no means mandatory. For the next five days we will continue to water with plain water PH'd to 5.8-5.9 just to keep the coco moist (not drenched) until our cannabis seeds sprout up.
