Not knowing your PH will lead to all kinds of problems. Can you get a PH meter, or at least test solution? Most problems you will have will be corrected and/or avoided with proper PH (6.5-6.6).

Also, what were they transplanted from? Same soil?

Humidity is fairly low, and FFOF soil is quite often too strong for seedlings, which could be causing a bit of burn at this stage. If your using distilled water ph shouldn’t be too much of a problem, but its always worth checking the ph of your water before you use it, and if its out then get it to 6.5

I think not much. Pure water is ph of 7 @ 77degrees F, but that’s still a bit high.

You really don’t want to use that for PH. If it’s all you have, get the battery but you really want a meter like this to test the water. That is for soil and I personally don’t trust it for anything but moisture.

Yellow tips are over fertilization if shes a seedling in ffof soil shes getting burned and needs weaker soil and not knowing ph could also be your problem

Good sign!

Probably the FFOF like others said, but I grew in it so I think you’ll pull trough. But, I’d listen to whatever @Majiktoker says.

Right @Matthew420 I agree I will. I heard this can happen and they can pull through. I ordered the ph that was recommended.

Definitely over fertilization if they were atleast 2-3 weeks they’d do great in that soil
