Transplanting the Sprout: Once the sprout attains a length of 3/4 of an inch, transition to a 1"x1" PLUG or 2"x2" pot filled with your chosen growing medium, such as Coco Coir. Follow these steps:

    • Wet the growing medium thoroughly, ensuring water comes out of the bottom of the pot.

    • Create a hole roughly the size of a pencil and about an inch into the growing medium.

    • Place the seed in the hole with the sprout facing downward and the seed upward.

    • Sprinkle a small amount of growing medium into the hole to cover up the sprouting seed.

By adhering to this uncomplicated method, you establish a solid foundation for successful seed germination, paving the way for robust and thriving plants in your cannabis cultivation venture.
