Is this normal?

This is the first time I've been home to take some picks before the light came on, is it normal for the plant to look like this? And as you can see the temp doesn't seem to be to low.

Aslo looks like a watering issue to me. Roots need oxygen as much as they need water.

I watered them twice because I wasn’t sure if the self-watering pots were really working. So what do I do, wait about a week before watering? Not too sure about growing in "Roots Organic Coco Mix" normally grow in DWC, trying something new with less maintenance.

As for the other three pots, lol, they just had their germinated seeds planted yesterday.

I have no experiance with self watering pots so I can't advise on this. You obviously like to grow and tend to your plants, thats why you watered them, so why have self watering pots? Wheres the fun in that, that seems harder to me because there is now way to know how much water they are reciving, your going on faith.

Just my two cents
Peace

is that for self watering ?

I mean how ? do the plant grow out legs ther and go to the well by itself ?
or do small fairy fly up and pour water into them ??

no the roots dont get any light, it is a two part pot, I just seen them and had to try them. I guess I sould have picked up a meter to check the water in the soil.
