So I’m a first time grower and I’m using an indoor tent. Humidity is about 60%, temp around 22/23 C, and I’m using LED lights on an 18/6 schedule. These seedlings are about 2 weeks old since germinating but my leaves look wilted / drooping. What am I doing wrong?
Let them dry out. They are overwatered.
The soil appears really dry though. I’ve been using a spray bottle, applying water around the stem daily because the soil seems so dry. So you think it’s still an over watering problem?
I would get some sort of dome to put over them and just let them dry out as above mentioned. Just me personally i dont ever water seedlings directly at the stem always a circle close to the edge of the planter to encourage outward root growth. Also i wouldnt water seedlings daily or spray them daily. When i start my seedlings they get watered every 2-3 days about 10ml per plant. I grow in coco coir with no perilite which requires watering more often so if your soil you might water less than that im not sure
Like the others said.
Cheers. I appreciate the help. For my first time growing, I just hope I get some type of yield.
No problem! They grow up fast and before you know it your out of room. Im always eager in the beginning but they are just laying roots down as they grow slowly. Also i recently upped my veg tent to 80 degrees and it holds about 76-78 and ive seen much more growth instead of running at 70-74 degrees
@MattyBear is 100% right! Let them dry. I have a few plants in solo cups and I only water them every 2-3 days. Letting the cup get super light and pretty much dry. …. It’s Still early nothing to worry about they’ll be fine.
