It will get there hopefully, thats good for 6 hours but shes still so young and needs to open up and finish developing before taking light.

I like to keep my seedlings round the edges of the grow room for a day or so then they get the full lights. Peace

Well i just figured this, if it was in nature right now poking its head out of the ground it'd be taking in sunlight. I'm just trying to stick as close to recreating outdoor conditions as possible


It could just be that it simpily hasnt opened up yet either, I mean under 24 hours ago it wasnt even fully out of the ground yet. It's a pretty new seed.

Edit: Defintly thinking it likes the light, I moved it down a bit closer not long ago and what do you know its straightned up a bit more

also just checked my ph levels they were a little high, I readjusted them

its perfectly fine, the cotyledons are just there for food so the plant can start the real leafs. As far as I know they don't even take up light

Im pretty sure they do take up light, mine always grow and get bigger till the stem splits its casing and they eventually drop off, small point though and somthing to look into but i am glad this seedling is looking ok now. Seems to be fine now dude just let it do its thing.

Peace
