LOL, the plant barely germinated, as far as I can tell it's a pretty healthy seedling.

If you're freaking out like this at this stage, the only good advice I think I can give you, is not to "mother" your plants too much, from what I've seen people who are over zealous of their plants have a tendency to over water and to over do nutes.

well they r about 2days old....but the top leafs been getting darker and darker as it goes...ive got a few others, but they haven't got any of that, just a bit yellow and some of the tips look slightly burnt

and yea mattplusness, u def got great eyes dude lolz...im using the bio bizz all mix GroWell > Bio Bizz All-Mix Soil which is actually the thing thats making me nervous about it, it was a last min decision and thought it'd be easier to go for that, its a bit hard to prepare anything around here as landlord lives in the same house :-/ i forgot to put any epsom salt to the soil could it be that? got some water crystals in there too... i havent added any more fert and only watered it once...the ph is suppose to be about 6.2-6.5 but my meter is saying 7.5 almost 8,but then again i havent calibrated the meter yet... i havent got any lime at the mo... i was thinking maybe watering it with something at a lower ph would take it down? ill have to wait till the soil dries up too, its still quite wet due to the crystals

right i just found my ph meter is not working, so ill assume the ph is about right according to the info on the compost bag - but the the dark top leaf's definitely shrinking down... can it survive with just one leaf or does that mean the whole seedling is gona be affected?

What alex7575 said. It's fine. Give a chance to stand up and then see how it looks. Looks like a perfectly healthy seedling to me. rep up alex.

hmm...i need to water soon, ill add a few drops of superthrive and see what happens, the darker leaf in the pic is def shrunk down to about 1/4 of the size of the other one, ill give it a couple days

is there any chance the compost is too strong for the seedlings? if so is there anything that i can do to adjust it now its already potted? ive got 3 arjan haze in the same mix and they are growing cool, just one of them got a bit of a burnt tip...could be that the sativas are handling the compost mix better than the white rhino?

well whats good for one cannabis plant should be good for the other so i dont think its the compost..just dont add nutes if it has nutes in the compost..if you think its the compost use some ff soil or make your own soil..i wanna know how your arjan haze turn out..do you have a grow journal for them???

nahh im not keeping a grow journal, im just doing it as i am going along :-/

only one of my arjan haze is growing fine - the rest has slow growth about 1 inch tall and its been two weeks

im getting other probs too

2 of the plants has burnt tips and marginal burn moving inside the leaves...leaves yellowing and tip curling up + slow growth and burnt tips' curling up

I thought it was overfeeding and flushed the 2 pots but that just made it to turn even more yellow, more leaves are affected

2 others - one has slow growth and the other is growing pretty cool but they have slight tip burn, and top leaves yellowing from the leaves nodes moving towards the tip - there are marginal and burnt spots on the leaves as well

I fed them last night thinking it could be nitrogen deficiency - but the one thats growing pretty fast now has worsen burnt edges on the top leaves and yellowing from the leaves nodes to the tip seems to be moving more towards the tip of the leaves

P.S. the leaves looks greener in the pic than they really are and the first 5 pics are from the two plants with slow growth and burning from the tip

the rest are from the one that's growing fine but yellowing from the leaves nodes towards the end apart apart from the last one which is from the one that's not growing much but leaves affecting the same way

Fertlizer's npk 12-4-8 + i got drip feed fertilizers in the pots npk 25-12-9
