Hey everyone. I'm about 10 days in on this one, and I'm not sure what's going on. I'm using CFLs and they aren't close enough to burn.
Everything was fine yesterday, but today one of my seedlings are having problems. I am using MiracleGro Seedling Starter, so I don't think it has nutes in it. I'm also using distilled water. I could have over watered, but I can't find any over water pictures to try and compare. I've been touching the soil and waiting until it doesn't have any wetness when I rub my fingers together and then watering which is usually every two days.
I heard not to give any nutes for 2 weeks, so I haven't. I ordered some Fox Farm Ocean Forest and it won't be here until Monday. I also ordered a PH tester, but again, won't be here until next week.
I feel like I need to transplant soon out of my party cup, but I don't want to have to do it now and then again on Monday when I get FF to reduce shock.
From what I've learned it looks like a calcium or magnesium deficiency or maybe I'm having drainage problems but I'm not sure. I do have holes in the bottom of the cup. I thought about using tap water if it's a deficiency next feeding to help with the cal and mag.
+REP to anyone who can point me in the right direction.
