When I remove the dome? Immediatelly after sprouting or when the plants start hitting the dome?

I would go with "When the plants start hitting the dome" The Stornger they are,the better.Remenber to transfer the plants to bigger containers,or else they will become root bound and stunt the growth of the plant.Good luck!

I removed it. My plant grew so big that I had to put it in another pot about a few days ago.

Yes. Just dip it in some water or snuff it out in the ground or the dirt of a potted plant. They start just fine the next evening.

The directions on the box says to only feed the plant during blooming season. I am still using the ice cubes. It looks like the plant is getting ready to bud so I am going to start feeding it. Sparingly!

No. I use the Jiffy Windowsill Greenhouse containers with clear, plastic covers on the mat. As the seedlings sprout, I move them to an uncovered container off the mat and continue watering when needed. The mat is excellent for accelerating sprouting, but it will heat a closed container too excessively for a growing seedling to thrive. Another tip: Place the mat on several layers of folded towels to prevent heat from escaping to a hard surface beneath it. The mat does not become dangerously hot, but it is important to direct its heat where it's needed most.

You might find this to be very informative: http://www.blytheraw.com/sprouting-chart. You are basically rinsing your seeds and sprouts after the initial soak as Tara explains below. I hope you find the chart helpful too.

It depends on how much water you originally put in the actual plant. You should water the plant every well first, then add the globe and it can last up to 2 weeks.If the plant is dry.... the globe will empty almost immediately.

Mark, I wish I could answer you, however, I've planted only a portion of the seeds. The Skullcap was not one. Maybe next spring!! I do know what I did sow came in at about an 80-90% germination rate.

Hi, I had this discussion with a buddy last night, you don't want to get too close, you will stunt the plants growth (it will generate roots with very short foliage, because there is no need to stretch at all for the light). I would not go any closer than 20 inches after the first few days after germination. The first few days the close light (8 inches away) will warm and blast through the shell of the seed.

Depends on how high above the planting surface you place the lights. I have them set at 18 inches. After one week, the plants are sprouting. That's the fastest plants have sprouted for me using artificial lightS.

You need to grow a vine on it for real and proper privacy. Am growing a climatis, very easy and pretty. Openings are small but not too small. Better than nothing for sure. My advice though is vine growing ( even out of a pot is OK). Mine is on the ground. Good luck..

After moving a ficus from any location...normal for leave drop....medium light...light watering ...after it acclimate s to its new home...leaves will start coming back

I repotted the plant as soon as it arrived. It has not grown significantly. Rebraiding has not been necessary with its growth of two inches.

I removed the piece of plastic completely with a small screw driver. But After I screwed the sprout back, it became a little bit looser. Still works though.

Hmmm. The directions, I thought, were pretty clear. It's been a while since I used mine for broccoli sprouts.... but your seeds will stay in the inner container (after the rinsing and shaking process) for proper aeration, humidity and moisture. And that's where they'll begin sprouting.
