What the hell is wrong with this seedling?

Alex77145 · Oct 28, 2017

First ever indoor grow. Both plants are a little less than 2 weeks old. One is OG Kush and the other Sour Diesel.
The problem is with the SD. It's lacking begind in every possible way. It's smaller. The leaves are dark green, not soft at all. It has a purple tint to it. You can't see it in the picture but it is growing a 4 finger leaf. It's just bad and it makes me feel bad every time I enter the grow box. What should I do? It got the same treatment as the OG Kush, so I don't have a clue what's wrong.
They were planted in BioBizz all mix soil. The SD also had problems with sprouting. I had to take off a small membrane, that was holding the first leaves.

Do I keep it or nah?

I had that kind of weird shaped growth a lot of times. 100% of the time it was because the plant was asking me for a bigger pot. Always. Transplant and she will recover, and you will see more growth in one week than in her first two weeks. Also soil looks a bit moist and maybe you are overwatering a bit. I would transplant and wait for 5 days. I bet you she will recover 100%.

I've seen plants that were half dead come back to life and give excellent results. That one im sure you can keep and save.

Looks a bit water logged... put a little fan on it and let it dry out.

Thanks for the advice! It looked moist because I just transplanted it and watered. Hope she will recover!

Just transplanted and watered it, that's why the soil looks so wet. Thanks for the reply tho!

So I just checked on the SD and it looks like it toped itself? What the hell is going on with this plant?

Lay off the PANIC button. Looks like new growth. This growing thing... Can't rush it. It's a LONG WAY to harvest.

Looks like a caterpillar took a bite out of the leaf on the last picture.

The first leaves are just crooked

Not what I see. The 3rd picture, the big leaf pointing down has a huge chunk missing out of the right hand side of it.

Step away from the plant.

All it needs is food, water and light. And at this stage it needs very little of the first two. When you hear folks talk about stressing their plant, they don't mean stressing over the plant. I have a strain called Bug Topped. Want to guess how it got it's name. That plant turned out to yield more than her untopped sister. You will be fine.

I advise all new growers to pop about a dozen bag seeds their first grow. It will let you kill a few without the social, economic and emotional stress that comes with high dollar seeds. And you always learn a ton your first go round. You will get the hang of it. Good luck.

It does look like it topped itself, consider that there are probably a few things wrong, strong soil for all your plants maybe idk :-)

Thanks for the advice. I already grew a few bagseed plants just for fun. The big ones in the background. It's not that I'm really stressing, just need the plants to be about the same size, when I hit the switch, because I have limited vertical space. But it's all cool, thank for the advice!

I have read that this soil does tent to be a little to strong for seedling. Hope it's just because of that

^^^^ it is, leave it grow , it will come on

Just add water till the plant can adapt then, when stress resides the self topping will return to normal.

So It's me againg with more questions. Let's start with the sour diesel, that was having problems. It looks like it started growing OKish. It is still small compared to the og kush and it has a thinner stem, but it is growing well except for the fact that it is growing 2x the leaves and stems. At each node it is now growing 4 leaves and 4 stems, which is bothering me. Why is that? Is it a problem?

Also I was planning on manifolding both of them. Do you think it is safe to top the sour diesel? Going to add 2 pics showing the 2x thing.

Then there is the OG Kush. It was growing well, I transplanted it a few times, topped it 5 days ago. But now I noticed that the leaves have yellow tips, like they would have with butrient burn. I haven't really fed it with anything besides BioBizz root stimulant. Could it be because of that? Also a lot if leaves have whitish spots on them, what is that? Will post 3 pics.
Also my temps have been high in the box lately, about 86° fahrenheit. Could that have some effect?
Thanks!
