NOTES:
Soaked seeds for 30 hours in Brit filtered tap water
Mine sprouted in 5 days
Temp between 80--83
They turn a clear/orange color and get veins and then "pop" and leave a slight brown mark on the cotton. This is normal.
Any Container should work, and using cotton (non scented) makeup remover pads & I left the light on nearly 24/7.
Floating the small container in a larger container to keep up humidity is a nice trick.
Thank you for this! I am also enamored by these amazing plants 🌱
Thank you so much for this!! I'm trying round two of growing these. First try was in soil and it sprouted then died. Wish me luck with round two!
Awesome! KEEP them super humid and bright light! Good luck!
I ordered my seeds a few days ago. I can’t wait!!!
Sweet! Did you get the striped or red ones? Keep me posted!
Well done!!
Thank you so much for sharing, I'm using your tips to grow my little seeds, one sprouted after just 2 days!
YEA! Mine are still growing too! You gotta keep them really humid! I would also maybe use a different soil when ready - something better draining IMO and then water often!
@@adrianpoe4416 thanks for the advice, I was just looking into what dirt I should use so I try something better draining
help! how do i get the seeds out of the flowers?!
Great information, thank you so much!
Sure thing! Hope it helps, mine are 3 inches now and I’m shook I didn’t kill them lol!
Thanks! Great video.
How long did they take to sprout?
Mine only took 5 days! I also forgot to say I soaked mine for about 30 hours! Sorry! I’ll have to add that in the notes
omg thank you soooo much for this video!
I'm here coz i need to know how to grow this. Ebay customer😁.
How many hours did you keep the light on per day? Thanks!
Hi! So that little light has a 16hour timer BUT I tried to keep it on 24/7. So if I woke up in the morning and it was off I turned it back in again. They seemed ok with 24hours light.
@@adrianpoe4416 thank you!!
This name Christia Obcordata is which country language ?????
Did you soak your seeds on the cotton pads ON the heat mat or did you transfer them onto the heat mat after they had sprouted?
Sorry I don’t understand what you’re asking. I soaked the seeds for 24-30 hours just in a glass of water sitting on the heat mat, then transferred to pads. Then potted once they were bigger.
how do i get the seed out of the plant ?
You can buy the plant I guess or you can have a gift from me as well
Did you take the seeds out of their tiny transparent casings or put them on the cotton pads whole?
I didn’t do anything to the seeds, but the seller may have. You should ask your seller. I didn’t visually see a clear sack of any kind but I did see where someone said to remove it. Sorry not a great answer lol.
Adrian Poe That’s okay my seller just responded saying there’s no need to remove the capsules if you soak them in water to start with. Thanks for your reply!
How are the plants now?
Rough. I stoped babying them and they’re crispy. Still trying to put off new leaves but I decided to pull one from the soil. It has root rot. Transplanted, not happy, one was so tall, snipped the top off, new leaves coming but overall not calling this a success. Getting more seeds and trying varying methods of growth. Aroid soil, sphagnum, leca and hydroponic with air stone. We will see how all of those get on.
@@adrianpoe4416 try to put the little plants in a very small pot. The roots needs air. That’s my experience. In a big pot the soil needs too long to get dry again.
@@michaelh.1712 yes mine got root rot. I just decided to toss them as I don’t have the time to revive. Ordered more seeds and will be using leca. I believe the soil choice was a bad one. They need VERY well draining soil.
