I’m pretty new myself but I will tag a few people who may be able to help.

I will mention that being only a little over two weeks and if you are watering the soil completely twice a week they may be overwatered. Seedling should just be sprayed initially so they don’t get overwatered. Also ph is key and can make or break your grow so you look into a ph meter as well. Do you have an pictures?

It’s pH and maybe that soil might be a tad hot. Pics are worth a thousand words @Mikalah314

Youre probably right. Hopefully i get it aa they go.

I see some stretching as well. What kind of lighting and how far away from the seedlings are they?

Do I read it correctly ? You grow seedlings in random composted manure ?
I personally use manures through most grow except sprouting the seeds up to 3 true leaf…
At this stage hot soil can screw them up pretty badly…
Please verify if that is so…thx

Yes it is. Do you think thats what it could be?

Yes I do , I am actually surprised they still live, but maybe, hopefully you are out of woods so to speak…
Other thing beside being too fertile, compost retains water very well so be very careful…
I am calling the big guns @Majiktoker
@garrigan62 for advice…

you never start seedlings out in compost manure. It’s way to hot for them. Now transplanting them into there final home. That’s when to use the compost manure.

I was kind of hoping you have some solution for this matter, his seedlings are almost 2 weeks old growing in it, of course strugling

Just to add humidity may also be a factor they need Atleast 65% humidity in the stage they are in, other wise your u are in great hands with garrigan65

@Ragnar

Sorry i’m not feeling very well at the moment.
What he needs to do is get them out of that manure and get them into clean potting soil. He also needs to clean as much manure off the roots as posable,
Then transplant into new potting soil. Having ,a gal of water ready with one or two cap fulls of hydrogen peroxide and one tlb spoon of Root stimultor and that’s it
