SEEDLING HELP

Roots reach for moisture. Fastest i can get it to happen is by watering the pot from the bottom. Then just water minimally around the plant.
The roots will reach pretty quick. Doesnt take much.. Just enough to soak up into the plant pot from a tray container or whatever
Gotcha, thank you guys! I’ll update soon If things get better

i keep my seedlings covered for the first 2 weeks in a dome. Even a ghetto dome like a clear 2 liter soda bottle wth the bottom cut off and no lid over the plant itself will help save it. Seedlings and clones need a ton of moisture. You are cooking that poor little thing.

even a 16oz clear (not cloudy, truly transparent) cup with a couple air holes placed over a small plant will make a mini greenhouse that will make conditions more ideal.

I had similar issues with seeds in that soil seemed a little hot at first but once they got a week or so grown they exploded. The fist set of leaves were toast though

If the other plants started at the same time and are bigger given similar conditions this one could be stunted by genetics, bend in the tap root from improper planting or germinating in the soil, or drying out from the low humidity. I noticed an absolute boom when I fixed my humidity from 38% up to 65% with a wet towel.

That literally it what my plants are growing through! The first week is just ending today so hopefully I’ll get that growth here in the next week

The other plants are clones that I received when they were a little bigger

Oh ok then nevermind. I'm just trying to look at it differently. If the other plants are fine then it probably is the light intensity on the seedling. I popped mine with a 45w led only pulling 15w at the wall. Slow growth but healthy growth. They're getting ready for a bigger light next week once I officially hit veg.

I think I was just too excited to plant the auto and totally forgot the light intensity is prob to much for her compared to the clones. Hopefully after raising the lights and moving her to the corner she’ll be able to recover and pull through
