  | Um, you need to take that shell off IMO. I had one that wouldn't shed the shell and once enough was enough for me and I pried it off it was too late and died on me.

It could have been many other factors as well... seeds are pretty fragile.

| Howdy all Well my first attempt was a failure, but I have 2 new seeds germ'd and the shells fell off themselves this morning, and I am already seeing the first initial leaves. My question is, when should I be removing my lid from my humidity dome? | ||

| I remove the humidity dome as soon as I see the sprouts are standing straight up.

| thanks for the quick reply dude... Should I also be lowering my fluorescent light after removing the humidity dome? With it i would have an extra 4-5" that I could move it closer. I am using 2 4foot 32w T5 bulbs if that helps any. Thanks again  Hella happy how fast these things popped up. | ||

It seems that Ive had that problem before and I just kept the cotyledon misted with water until it slid off.
