Hello & thanks to everyone who has been helping me with all the great advise... Im going 2 start at the begining, 2 wks ago today i got my seeds & put them into germ. next day with a small taproot i put them into their permanent 2gal pots, last sat or sun they had too much water & started to sag a bit & lots of people said i needed better soil W/ perlite & bigger pots, so tue i got better soil & peatmoss & perlite transplanted them & 1 of the auto bubblegums went into a 4gal pot, & that 1 is in real bad shape & the other auto bubblegum is a bit better & the reg blue himalyian is also just fair... Yesterday i gave them a small amount of MG all purpose so they could get some nitrogen... I need some advise please so i can get them where they need to be, because for 14 days old they look like shit.. Thanks for your help & advise.. etransplant 008.jpgtransplant 004.jpgtransplant 001.jpgtransplant 002.jpg

This is a case of 'less is more'. Seedlings don't need nutes! Let them dry out between watering or you will kill them - seriously. I know you want to do something to make em grow faster but all that will kill them bro. You're pics looks like over watering, heat stress and nute burn from the crap soil you were using before and then you added more nutes on top of that. At this point, they don't need nutes. Make sure your temps stay around 75 degrees. Seedlings are sensitive to heat stress. Make sure you have a fan gently blowing on them, that'll help keep your temps down and also beef up the stems. Let them grow until they are about 4 weeks from seed before you even think of giving them nutes. Once the seedlings are about 4 weeks old they'll enter vegetation stage and you can start them off with a weak solution of 1/4 nutes every other watering. Do that for one week and then slowly increase the nutes. Your soil sounds like its fine now and the containers will work. It's a weed, it can take some abuse but be careful.
