The soil is pretty much bone dry at 2" down now.
Like in the movie Armageddon- when he has lost his mind yelling NO NUKES NO NUKES
NO NUTES
NO NUTES !

We have different brands here in Australia.. Most of the soils and nutrients you guys talk about I cant find here :))

Fast & Vast auto - day 14 Both plants have a yellow water leaf nearest to the light which is only a 140w led.
Gave them miracle grow at 7 day old- all ok.
Gave them seaweed juice stuff at day 12- all ok and sprouted a little bit. ( The seaweed juice bottle says to combine with normal fertilizers once a month)?
Now day 14 and yellow water leaves and not much growth at all.!

Have I got to much perlite? 50/50
Soil is not saturated and only tiny tiny moist 1& 1/2" under top of soil...
Water is PH 7.0 tap water
Temps & Humidity are perfect..

Greatly appreciate any help!
You know what i like to do? Maybe you care or maybe not, but it might make early veg easier for you. I just sprout in ffof. You can keep it in there in a small container and not have to feed until ot gets bigger. Just water and watch.

Yeah bro :)). I assume you mean fox farm ocean forest? I cant find that hear in Australia.. But will look again :))
Our quarantine laws probably not allow the import of it too.

Watered fast n vast this morning with 70ml each of tap water 7.0. Hopefully that will help dilute any extra nutes that are undesired..
The Northern Lights are looking healthy still with seaweed juice :))

Organics all day...especially if u have trouble sourcing good nutrients...Australia has much ecodiversty but in most regions it should pratically grow itself with a little compost an water. Less is more till u get experience under ur belt...Happy growing

Any decent soil will do. Beans right in the good stuff in a small container. When it has a couple sets then i transplant and start to think about it.
 
I was thinking nute burn... But gave 1/2 nutes as miracle grow says for seedlings...? Do you class seaweed juice as serious nutes ? If so I think you have nailed the problem. I watered with straight water 18 hours ago thinking as a nute burn.
Iv spent $1100 AUS on lights so hoping they can pull through...
Got another 2 seedling- Northern lights 1 week old (approx) and they are happy with just seaweed so far. Got money to burn for grow so THANKS for helping and any suggestions would be great
I hope you didn't spend $1100 AUS on a 140W LED, that's grand theft right there. Also, you should only water when the pot is fairly dry, don't keep watering every 2-3 days, especially in veg and especially with LEDs. I would also try to bring your water PH down slightly, 6.3-6.5 would be ideal in soil
