Hi,
This is my first grow. These 2 seedlings have been in rockwool cubes for about a week. They are about 2-3 inches from CFLs; ventilation is good; temps are good. I put the twist ties around the stems to keep them upright because 2 days ago they got droopy.
I may be guilty of overwatering during their first week, but I live in a very arid climate and these rockwool cubes seem to be as dry as chalk only 6-8 hours after watering a teaspoon or so. No nutes yet, just tap water that is about 6.6 pH.
I've read about the cotyledons dying, but I'm not sure if they're supposed to yellow and die this early, or even if this is what they're supposed to look like when they die. Each seedling has one set of tiny real leaves, and these leaves are very green, but the overall appearance of the plants has me concerned.
Are they ok? Any info I left out, just ask. Thanks!
