So i have sucessfully germed my OG Kush and planted in soil with the other 4 seeds. The other 4 have emerged out of the soil and are kicking off their shell except for this one that hasnt moved the least bit for over 3 days.. any ideas? Could it of just died somehow it just looks lifeless.. i keep my temp at 75 with a standard cfl bulb.. never had this happen before.. not that im trying to seem impatient just worried it is dead or something

Can you post picks? What type of soil mix is it? I had a similar issue with some fem green crack seedlings were the soil was to hot for that strain one seedling took it well the other sprouted then stayed put and died pics will def help us help you with your issue

Using blackgold waterhold which is a seedling soil with peat moss.


Been like that for over 3 days now

Is the seedling still green? Is it droopy? How often are you watering ? And what size containers

What type of lighting are these under? looks like the issue is either insufficient lighting. Also its still got the shell on the top of the seedling... I'd try wetting it with a little spray water and then wait a few hours, then try to get the seed shell off.. sometimes needs manual encouragement...

Also... still feel your lights are an issue or lack of.

I checked out your pics. That happens from time to time.. the tap root is probably establishing itself. Sometimes you can gently pick off the seed coat yourself but dont break the leaves or stem. Give it time... If a few more days go by without growth then maybe that seedling has dampened off. good luck let us know. dont drown that seedling either!

Thanks for the advice man. Probably better if i dont water them anymore the top is already getting some white fuzzy shit on some other pots. Dunno how to get rid of it hoping i can just dry it out and the mold will dye off

Stop over watering will fix that ... also get proper ventilation going in your grow area and you wont get mould building up on the soil... I'd get that cleaned up asap to avoid further issues later.

yeah let it dry down before watering again. as for the fuzzy mold sometimes you can fold that later of soil in and agitate it a little and put a small fan blowing lightly over the top of the pot. could just go away on its own. prolly just there cuz the media is soaked

U think itll still be ok if i just stop watering and let it do its thing? Hope i didnt drown it
Clean up the mould issue dude :) also let the soil DRY out for a few days... you are over watering it / worrying a little too much about the amount a seedling needs:-)

He is saying you can mix a dilute solution of h202. start with standard 3% from the bathroom cabinet and mix 50/50 with water and lightly mist the top soil. this yields a 1.5% h202 solution which is standard dilution to start with. try to avoid spraying the seedling for now even though technocally it shouldnt burn or cause issues with plants at that 1.5% rate
