What’s wrong with this seedling

This seedling was planted first and it was the fastes grower but I noticed it started to look a lighter green (unhealthy) and it’s growth stop. It would drink up the water I gave her but only the stem would grow. After a couple days I thought maybe the new growth would be healthier and later I could trims does nasty leaves but nope new leaves sprouted and since day one experience some form of deformity ? Some help. Please.image

Newer growth often comes in lighter at first. It should normal out soon

I should state it’s been a full week since it sprouted and this other baby was planted a day later and sprouted two days later from the other seed and look at it so far

Are you using a dome seedlings draw moisture thru the leaves while establishing roots

My grow right now the runt is now the biggest girl in my tent. They grow at their own pace, if she’s green and standing you’re good to go :blush:

Yes that true my runt isn’t the thickest but she’s the tallest.

Tell you the truth I assume the ph is 6.8 or 7 haven’t calibrated my ph meter in for ever and it jumps a lot sometimes not making sense so I came to the conclusion my ph readings never were accurate and like Karol said no runoff I only make sure the top of the soil is not dry and inject 5 ml on each side of the plant slowly for I don’t damage anything down there.
I do not keep them under a humidity dome took that off soon as real leaves cake by and my humidity runs at 36 lowest 45 highest don’t want to chance root rot that’s why I don’t water near the stem but also I try to get as close as I can .

Yea thats a canned question. I lump all 3 in when i think ph mite be an issue. In this case i dont know that soil hence the question.

Sorry for my broken English. It’s not my first language.

I went with miracle grow seed starter don’t ask why first time growing but also have DR. Earth since someone highly recommended that.


As you see I try to run a dome as long as possible.

I’ve always started mine in MG seed starter mix. Never had an issue. Mine get transplanted into more cannabis friendly soil once they outgrow the solo cup

Skorpion do you ever run into a problem where some leaves get burned from water droplets (from the humidity).

I was going to do exactly that. What soil do you recommend for the next transplant.

Yes slightly on week 3 .
