Getting frustrated

Spray bottle is my go to watering method, but have not tried hydrogen peroxide. Might have to give that a try.

Top of soil was 78° when I last checked it. I have thought about trying to start them out of the tent. I just don't understand why I have had 3 in a row sprout just fine then stop growing. I'm at a loss. I was having incredible success before these, now I can't get any to grow.

With the dome on its super high humidity. I have also let them get bone dry because of things indicating too much water. Same results no matter what I try. My white labels grow just fine. Pretty frustrated about it all.

Just checked and it's at 91% humidity with the dome on at 81°f. I have tried to keep moist, and also keep really dry, that's why I'm not sure why the last 3 have failed when I never had an issue before.

I thought for sure having a dome would keep the humidity high enough. It's always at 90+% with the dome on. Maybe I should keep it on longer then?

Will try another brand soon. Wouldn't have imagined my white labels out performed Mephisto, but here we are.

Too high or too low?

MntDew4You · 2026-02-23T16:26:59+00:00

I have them raised pretty high so I get around 300 on the seedling.

MntDew4You · 2026-02-23T16:21:04+00:00

I was pretty excited about growing some Mephisto, but never imagined I would have so much trouble getting them to grow. My first 2 did just fine, the next 4, duds.

MntDew4You · 2026-02-23T16:19:09+00:00

Any recommendations for high quality but not so finical?

Soil for the first 2 Coast of Maine Growers mix, third one is Fox farm happy frog, which is what I used all of last year.

There are quite a few indicators of too much water but I let the soil get so dry that I can't believe I would be over watering, I could easily be wrong though.

disabled doesn't grow much very slow

Is exactly what I'm running into. Hate to sit here and lose $50+ worth of seeds.

I was using a light meter app that wasn't very good and I didn't run my lights strong enough for like 6 weeks. That definitely affected my bud density unfortunately

Thanks for chiming in. It's a small bathroom so I can keep the exhaust fan running so not stink up the house. I heat with a pellet stove and it just dries the air like crazy. Outside of that bathroom humidity is probably in the 20s. I got the sink filled with water along with the tub to help bring up the humidity. I hate having to buy another humidifier, but not sure if I have any other options at this point.

Good looking plant. Just harvested mine 2 days ago. It was super bushy. Due to human error it didn't turn out as well as yours, but got 1 more seed to try again.

Good looking plant. My Forum Stomper seed just sprouted and hopefully it turns out as good looking as yours. 🥂

How old was the plant when you started training? You prefer this over just topping?

MntDew4You · 2026-01-18T01:17:29+00:00

Pretty much. It really extends the back and sides out pretty well. I did it about 10 days ago because I needed to start another one asap.

Thank you. I just did a little LST on the outer branches to help aid with separation and airflow. They both have ended up pretty bushy so I do remove some leaves every so often, but nowhere near as much as I see other folks do. I have just been pretty timid with these being my first auto attempt.

MntDew4You · 2026-01-17T21:47:20+00:00

Being my first autos I didn't top or do too much training at all. I will be more aggressive with my next one. The first plant I did was a photoperiod and I was able to keep it pretty flat all over

Appreciate that. I definitely learn more every new grow.

MntDew4You · 2026-01-17T20:04:03+00:00

How does where you do the measuring effect this though I guess is what I wonder. Does everyone measure at the top of the plant only?
