Need more information. Medium, ph , nutes? Etc etc . looks like ph problems
Ph 5.6. Ec 0.5
Medium coco
Temps on 26.5c
Temps off 20c
Canna a+b
Canna rhizotonic
10l water 0.6ml a+b per litre
9ml rhizotonic
Drinking roughly 100ml water every two days
I suffered from lack of humidity at the start and they really slowed down
Could it be to slow photosynthesis due to lack of humidity in return deficancy of co2

100ml of water is not enough.feed until water runs out of the bottom. Humidty levels wont do that unless its for days on end.try raising your ph a little and feed with some cal mag as above poster said may be hungry because of the small water your giving.also they maybe root bound pop them out wnd check the root mass
They have got to the stage today they can have run off and be dry again in two days
As soon as I turned a humidifier on then purked right up
Think ure right about pot bound maybe
So have all the provisions now to up pot to 15litres and also some calmag to supplement
Will raise ph to 5.8
Never had these issues in the past when
Using cuttings that have managed to get used to similar environments... 2 or3 generation

If your humidity is back to normal now...there should be no residual stunting or anything. Just another day in the life of a plant.
If you get good air movement (exchange) then your co2 will be fine.
Ph is a little low. 5.8 to 6.2 is common and I've seen experienced grower go higher. Shoot for 6. You getting any runoff when you water?
And I feed seedlings at that level. Bump the EC gradually. They will benefit with more meat in their meals...

Yeah they perked up because they coukd take in moisture from the air when you turned on the humidifier. you need to water more than 100 ml for that size of plant, trickle feeding to promote root growth is an art in itself.i think its mostly a root bound problem, after re potting they should straighten out after afew days
Thanks I will put an update soon
