My Plant is 16 days old and was doing awesome up until 3 days ago. I noticed the leaves started to curl downward. I immediately thought it might be over watering but I am not sure. 2 days later the first leaves (embryonic leaves?) started yellowing along with the first serrated leaves and also one of the leaves on the second set curled up. I am using an organic soil without adding any extra nutes. I am using two 26w CFLs on 24hr lights on lighting. The plant is still growing but with the leaves not being as perky as usual and the yellowing of the bottom leaves i am totally nervous... Any suggestions on what I should change? PLEASE HELP ME

id check the pH. also if the yellowing starts at the bottom and moves its way up, that could be a lack of nitrogen. Organic soil from what i understand still needs stuff in it, vermiculite, worm casings, etc, maybe your starving them a bit.
 
looks like it could be over or underfed...nitrogen is usually the culprit. what kind of soil? like...your own mix? or some type of potting soil you bought?
 
yea it is probly the soil u didnot add anything to it did u like the others said u need amendments to the soil perlite 1st dosnt look like there is any in the soil your soil is holding to much moisture hope that helps
