These are my Blue Himalaya autos from the attitude. They popped outta the coco about 1.5 weeks ago, and they are still very small. I've been watering just about everyday with just water and every other watering i'm putting about a tsp of epsom salt. My tap water is 80-105 ppm, and the ph is about 7.6-7.8. I think i need to adjust my ph but i'm not sure if that's the problem. I grew last year and NEVER paid attention to ph and had NO problems. my temps are 75-83 during the day so probably around 65-70 at night. (room temp). I only have a couple 26w cfls (6500k) for the seedling stage. whats the hold up? they should be bigger by now. what do you guys think the problem is? the cotelydon's are yellowing, but the real leaves are usually more pronounced when they fall off.

i had 2 26w cfls and a 65 w cfl but the temps were like 84-87. thanks man, i'll add a couple more now. Anyone else have feedback? i will take all you can give me
 
man you have to stop watering every day. As for tap water just get a lil air pump and bubble it for a day or two before watering. Ph could be lower. But you really have to stop watering everyday, i waited 8 days after the first watering.
 
and ps lumens are for humans, you want a good kelvin rating and yes a decent lumen number. Lumens are the human eyes rating chart for how bright it is. So obviously if you have a room filled with cfls you will have a high lumen number, but you would also have a high lumen number with incandescent bulbs-which do shit for plants. So make sure your cfls are a higher Kelvin rating like 5000-6500k for veging and 2700k-3500k for flowering

watering every day is unnecessary and overwatering could be your problem

also you dont really need to be adding any nitrogen or anything to the plant at this stage. other than water and light the cotyledons have everything the plant needs for the beginning of life

i was told add epsom salt for mg. i will stop watering everyday. the coco cups seems light as hell when i water i will let em go longer before i water. i thought coco needed to be watered more, but i guess i should cool it they are only seedling stage. thanks guys
