Default Help marijuana seedlings stem is bending over?
Everytime i try to grow weed i get this problem all the time. idk if its the soil ,ive tried 8 different types of potting mix, and always get this problem i cant get the seeds to sprout and all that. but about 3 days later they bend over as if there dieing, the leafs dont look floppy or anything they look healthy and strong lol and when i bring the plants inside at night to keep them protected they seem to get better, and stand up straight. than in the morning i put them back outside and again in 8 hrs time they seem to bend over again wtf? last time they all died last strain that died was white widow this strain im currentley growing is called cheese. there 3 days old atm and no i dont over water i let them dry out so about 2cm of the top layer has dried out than i water them

Try adding a bit of soil up to the 1st set of leaves. It sounds like they are streeeeetching towards the light. Can you keep them inside and put some cfl's or tube flouros over them until they get a bit stronger? The first week is a very gentle time and I think you might just be making it worse by moving them everyday.

Send a message via Yahoo to nellyatcha
then you need to rotate the plant towards the light like a quarter turn each time it starts to bend over

if it only happens when you leave them outside, then consider the conditions out there, temp, humidity, etc... something might be off. Also, why not grow them indoors until they're strong and healthy? CFLs are cheap and work great for veggin seedlings. hope that helps..=)

i think its getting to hot for them and thier getting to dry. they fall over becaouse thier wilting. just grow them inside or wait till they have thier second or 3rd set of leave then try to put them out side and dont let the soil get to dry.
