Ive started this plant 2 weeks ago and a problem is appearing, First the lower leaves are turning yellow, then there are dark spot appearing on the yellowing leaves and then they are beginning to dry and die. What could be the problem? here are some information on my setup
2 X 40w cool with compact fluorescent for 3 seedlings
Temp: usually around 30-32 degrees celcius.
Watering: i water them when the soil is dry 1 inch from the surface.
Soil: Normal soil i bought in a gardening store, it was the cheapest kind...
fans: i have two computer fans in the grow box, 1 sending outside air in and the other one sending inside air out.
My first guess would be temperature?? i dont really know what range of temp is optimal for these plants to grow. other than that i have no idea on what could be the problem cuz they dont seem over or under watered and the lights are close enough (4-5 inches away from the top of the plants). Another thing is, the problem spread to the 2 largest seedling and the third one (who took a bit more time to start) does not seem to devellop the problem so far.
