I've actually been doing that and keeping the rh between about 30-50%, This is what the looked like this morning when I came down, one of them has these yellow spots on the leaves, I saw them yesterday but they were tiny so I wasn't worried but now they've gotten a bit worse, any idea what it is? i was spraying water on them to keep the rh up so i thought it might have been that the water just magnified the light and burnt it but i duno it looks odd so I thought I'd ask
Yeah, that's possible. They look good though. Now they just need time. Growing from seed seems to take forever sometimes,but think of their leaves like solar panels, the more they have, the faster she will grow.

Ok so some weird shits going on here that plant with the little yellow spot is now slowly getting yellower like the whole plant instead of just spots or anything, theres also another 1 that is slowly yellowing, the other one also has something funky going on with its cotyledon leaves that I never noticed before. It's got 3 at the moment and by the looks of it is growing a 4th... aren't they supposed to only have 2? Anyway 2 of them are still doing well while the other 2 are yellowing and the one that I'm pretty sure I over fed before has pretty much stayed as it was and its growth has been stunted as well, I was only going to keep 4 anyway so I'm not too bothered (didn't think I could fit all 5 plants in there when they are fully grown). Anyway if anyone has any idea whats going on with the yellowing let me know and with the weird 3 cotyledon thing is that just me or is that actually just some weird shit? My pH is sitting at 5.8 and my ppm is at 407 (it was at 450 before for a while with no problems so i doubt its Nute burn) my temps have been around 75F (24C) with my rh at 30-40%

The first picture is the plant that had the yellow spots and stuff thats slowly getting yellower now and the second pic is the one with like 3 cotyledon leaves. after that its just random shots of them

freeze 1 gallon milk jug/icecream containers full of water. leave or hang them in cabinet. be prepared for condensation to drip everywhere. temperatures will drop. replace as needed

PS: ignore ^nazis. do worry about your pH in coco. Its more or less important in different growing media. its important in coco
btw man thanks again for the help, managed to get the temps sorted thanks to you:clap:

Good to hear its sorted!

The yellow stuff - can't help you for sure but it looks a bit like heat damage/watersplash, when did it start?

You got a mutant seedling there (3 cotyledons). Search around, they do that rarely, but yours isn't making three leaves at EVERY node which would make it a triploid variant.

Just remember to have fun growing - if you're growing for personal use, it should be relaxing and rewarding and definitely not stressful. I've had to remind myself of that recently 8)

it started like 2 days or so ago and i mean i had been spraying water on them to keep the humidity levels up so thats what i thought too but as soon as i first saw it I stopped spraying them and it kept getting bigger so I doubt its that either...:???: as for the mutant that sounds kinda awesome if I'm honest haha

Some times the damage is done, but the leaf changes lag by a bit (keep getting worse, even after you remove the cause). And they won't ever fix a problem like that - just focus on the new leaves and be happy it isn't spreading anywhere!

Cool, i think it might be spreading because theres little brown/grey patches on the edges of one of the top leaves now but they're tiny, ill see how its doing tomorrow and maybe post some more pics if it gets worse. thanks for the help though buddy much appreciated!

So its been a little while since I last posted cos I've been busy but yeah most of the plants are doing well at the moment, one was pretty much entirely yellow so I got some calmag and added a bit of that to the res and now the plants are going green again which makes me happy. I also got my exhaust fan the other day and got that all set up so my temps stay down a lot easier now (generally around 25C or 78F i think) I topped them the other day as I'm planning to scrog so I'm trying to get the plants as wide as possible. I think ill try topping them one more time later but after that ill just stick to tying them down. Anyway heres the pictures of them, I think its been 23 days since I germd them now.
