using miracle grow organic natures care soil. Growing mostly auto flowers. Growing under a phlizon 450w. But I only use the Cobb lights at around 250w for seedlings. Ph in at 6.5. I did a slurry test yesterday and it read 5.9. Using house and garden nutrients. I’ve barely fed anything. My tap water sits and bubbles for 24hours before I use it. plus a tiny tiny bit of vitamin c for chloramine. I fed once at 6.8 thinking soil was too acidic but now I’m seeing ph patches. Yellow sort of in the middle. And my seedlings are almost all dying. Please help me. This sucks.
Cal/mag Foliar with Kelp from a solid coldwater source and give them Bigfoot Concentrate tea with E.W castings, Kelp, Biochar, and 2strains Endo Ecto mycorrhizhae works like charm quick.

Also , take their various labels of soil as organic or moisture holding or whatever .

Its all pretty much the same bagged shit.

Since you already seem to be treating soil like hydro, maybe switching to coco may suit you better.
You will find that many successful grows here have been completed with bagged soil and tap water. Like growing any other plant
. That’s literally why I’m switching. Ya little sassafras

Find a suitable soil ( peat based ) like :

Promix
Sunshine #4
Dr. Earth
Happy Frog
Black Magic
EB Stone
Recipe 420
etc.

They are stressed but if you are careful you can repot in a better medium , water as needed then do nothing as plant plant hopefully comes around. Most mild potting mixes as listed will feed it without overwhelming it. Once stable , you can run your Nutes as needed.
Good Luck

and I know this. Why are my seedlings dying if I haven’t fed them? I never said I fed my seedlings. Only my auto at 4 weeks old.

kelp from a cold water source? Can you explain? I have Zeus juice from nectar of the Gods. Or growers recharge. Will that work?

I am sure that miracle grow is an awesome product, but over the years I have seen so many people with problems using it. Just saying.

And if somebody hasn't suggested it, raising the lights. If I run my COBs at 200 watts and am anywhere closer than 3 feet I start to see issues that looks like nute def. I also add a little cal-mag with LED because I read enough people who claim it's needed more than I read people who said that was B.S. and what I did add hasn't hurt mine. But, with plants as young as yours, I'd be looking at not that much anyway.

I really think that could be a major factor too. When I run my Mars hydro I don’t see as many issues. I may switch that in there.

Great white myco is on the way.
Great White is awesome too but the Big Foot Concentrate Tea is different then a pure Mychos which works great as just a soil/ root inoculant. I always use Great White or Bigfoot Gold during transplants and seedling germination but tbh I feed my seeds after week 1 -2 with this Bigfoot Concentrate its got alot but in a little way so its not a high NPK at all very low plus has a sweet blend of Humic Acids that kick start everything into working better then most ready made teas Ive tried. Recharge is not bad at all Id use it straight up ASAP until you score some BigFoot Tea. Its not the Granular or dry mychos its the 2 or 4 strain Concentrate.(I rec the 2strain I didnt notice huge diff in the 4 strain endo/ecto) Ive used alot of great stuff in this category that helps alot but BigFoot tops the cake for a ready made tea that works extremely well. Its dry but you dilute it in H2O like a ready made tea, just like Recharge. So Cold water kelp is the best kind of kelp typically from PNW or Northern Atlantic Cold waters Norwegian kelp too they all have the most minerals and micro macro nutrients in any Kelp sourced which most companies use it like Roots Organic Extreme Serene. I highly recommend their kelp blend for foliar and root drench for newer guys doing hobby style grows as a Foliar with either Nectars Cal/MAg or Roots Organics Cal/MAg as a Foliar only during Lights Off make sure to get under sides of leaves and tops couple hours before lights on and ventilate with fan on to keep humidity down. This is a Veg Regimen & id stick to it 2x / week until flower then just continue to Calmag the water/feedings and give them the BF concentrate tea 1x a week until flush you'll thank me later guaranteed.
