Germination Issue - Winter (Raining all week)

[JoshSimple]

Hey guys,

 

First time grower here, have been lurking the forums for a while. 

Outdoors grow in pot plants, in a green house. 

 

So I planted 6 white widow x big bud seeds in some tiny little pots, and put them under a light my mate uses (don't know what type) for the first 24 hours to help germinate them, then left them outside with a little bit of water every 2nd day to germinate them. However the past 4-5 days there has been one day of sun and the rest rain. I've just put the little pots in a greenhouse outside in a new location that will get a lot more sun, but the plants haven't grown out of the soil yet. I planted last Tuesday, and its Sunday now so its been 5-6 days and they still haven't popped up. What are my next steps to get this moving?

How deep did you plant the seeds?

If the soil is cold then they might take a long time to germinate, or won't germinate at all. It's usually best to germinate the seeds seperately in a moist paper towel or similar in a warm spot indoors before transplanting to their future home.

My friend germinated them for me supposedly, he has been growing for a couple years. He put them under his hydro light for 24 hours before giving them to me. 3 have sprouted so far, just waiting on the other 3. Weather has been shit.

You don't need light when germinating , you need heat / humidity . Once they sprout , that's when they need light .. the best advice I can give you is to read as much as you can on the internet before doing anything . Sites like grow weed easy are good for noobs like us . Good luck .
