    Germination problem

    I placed seeds from 5 different auto strains 1/2" deep into rapid rooter pots placed inside my running bubbleponics tub using some recommended nutrients, 6.5 PH inside a dark grow tent at 75 degrees and 70% humidity. After 6 days, only 2 seedlings have appeared. One is about 1 1/2" tall with no leaves. Am I doing something wrong??? Thanks for any help.

    I agree that they will germinate better in Rapid Rooters if they get light, especially after the first day or two. The seedlings won't really open their leaves or turn green until they start getting light.

    For the one with no leaves, is it possible it's growing with the root upside down?

    More info about that here if that's the case.
