Hello all.
Here's my seedlings at 10 days, feeling like they're stunted. Still only at first set of leaves which are small and cotyledons still on and green. No new growth for several days now, one has drooping leaves that are pale (near right side). First roots started to show out the base of cube 2 days ago so I assumed they were just putting down roots.
11 were popped, 2 never properly appeared so were tossed. Tangie x Kosher from DNA.
Environment: temps constant 73/74F, humidity between 60-70%, indirect breeze from oscillating fan on other side of room.
Water: around 5ml pH'd tap water (base TDS= 270ppm) 2-4 times daily as the cubes seemed to be drying out pretty quick (likely from breeze and AC). Saturated but no run off.
Feed: no added notes except for a 1/8 strength GH Rapid Start yesterday to stimulate roots (NPK 1-0.5-1 off the top of my head) given yesterday.
Light: 4 bulb fluoro's on 24hrs and approx 10" above canopy. I did have only 2 bulbs running but they stretched pretty quickly so I went with all 4 bulbs after day 5. Just switched to 24/0 last night.
To me these look like 5 day seedlings with a bit of stretch (solved), possible overwatering although should be good in Rockwool. Possibly starving maybe?
What do you guys think???
