Hi everyone so as you can see my seeds are sprouting i planted them 3 days ago and i put them directly into soil and allowed them to germinate in there and there were growing so fast i expected for them to only develop a nice root in this amount of time but here we are! so as you can see there is a little green leaf but there is a little bit of discoloration and the thing that is suppose to be white is a dark white i'm thinking maybe its due to overheating/ over watering but i need your help asap i want to make sure there is nothing wrong and the last pic are of the second seed that is just breaking the surface if there is anything you can see wrong with that let me know thank you all!6CE8A694-9CDD-480C-82B3-D8CCEBA66E4E.jpeg 313AACBF-7390-42F1-8223-09F2E47ECEBB.jpeg ACF92B2D-DF37-4505-839D-B88E8A81E726.jpegA688FE22-1B94-42DB-BFCB-09D45389D750.jpeg

Just keep the soil moist, the seedlings will not need a lot of water, and change your PH to 6.3, 6.9 is way high.
Good luck

,when it feels light feed ,Around the out side of it never round the stem ,jus water.
It may need watering daily it dep on the light your using i use a t5 and they run warm ,so i water daily to start with just a bit though ,under a led or cfl few times a week just when dry

Water less than you are, water just where the seedling is for the most part but don't drown it, maybe 10-20 mL every 12 hours around the seedling, turn the light down or raise it way up, control heat

.. if the shell hasn't fallen off in 24-36 hours after coming above the soil it may have to be removed, come back or search threads about how to do it here or maybe YouTube it's not that hard, but can be fairly delicate procedure ? You might have to work at it gently over the period of half a day or so for best results ?
-good luck!

alright im definitely gonna do that because i haven't really been waiting for the soil to dry up ive just been focused on keeping it moist so i think ive been over watering and i have now moved it further from the light and as for the shell its only been above soil for one day so ill wait on doing that thanks for the help!

If you need to peel it off moisten it mist it several times over the period of an hour or two and it's more pliable & easier to get off, at least that's my opinion I've lost maybe one or two, it happens but more often than not you can get them off successfully!

ill do that for sure but the shells are on the verge of falling off they're hanging on just about so i don.t think i have an issue with the shells but if i do i will definitely try that
