My seedling is not growing at all.

I have 1 northern light blue autoflower flower going. She sprouted about 5 days ago. She has her 1st set of leaves, she is nice and green. I have water phd at around 6.3. She is in very good soil. She seems just to have stopped growing. She has looked like this since sprouting. I have her under a single 26w cfl at about 2 inches away. So what is going on, is there anything I should be doing different? Should I add more light even if she is only 5 days old? If so, how much more light? Northern Lights Blue.jpg

What is very good soil? Seedlings don't need soil heavily saturated with food.

You can add another bulb but watch for the heat.

Keep the soil moist but don't damp. Put your finger in it up to your fist knuckle if its wet wait to water; and don't add any nutes.

Oh and Northern blue lights likes Asian fairy tails to be read before bed. (No seriously it helps)

Roots before Shoot. :leaf:
Give the plant time to grow a root system.
don't water to much, just moist soil never wet.
Little sprouts don't need much water any way.

Good Luck on Your Grow.

Needs more light. Honestly you could put it under a 1,000 watter right now and it would grow well as long as it wasn't getting too hot.

The bigger the pot the longer it takes to grow vertically the roots will establish themselves before it starts growing shoots. i would have started that in a red party cup.dont worry tho your doing fine patience young grasshopper.
