New Grower Need some help

[Tonybones]

Ok these are Cream of the Crop Narcotic Kush. They are both 12 days old. The first one is not growing very good. Should I go and pull it and start over or should I let it go and see what happens?

I'm against killing plants. #FreeThePlants2013

Wait it out and see how it goes. The plant has 1-2 issues that can be easily repaired.

How much are you watering? How often? What are your temperatures? Are you using any nutrients? Are you growing indoor/outdoor? Is this your first grow?

It looks over-watered/under-watered.

EDIT: Both plants look considerably small. By 13 days they should have 3-4 sets of true-leaves and be a bit taller.

I'm watering maybe every four days or when the pot feels light. My temps run about 68-77 degrees. The humidity stays right around 51%. The only nutrients they get is in the soil which is miracle grow. They are indoors under six t8 ho bulbs. And it is my first grow.

Looks like you're in the same boat I was in. I had the same problem where my seedlings just didn't wanna grow and they were probably the exact same size as yours at that age but don't give up on em. I finally got em started with a nice feeding and they've been growing pretty steadily ever since. I now am running into other problems but I've kinda expected it as it's my first grow and I've come to realize it's one huge learning experience. I'll post a link to my grow in case you wanna see what I did and hopefully learn from my mistakes. I wish you the best of luck, these plants are pretty resilient and seem to just wanna keep on fighting for survival no matter what happens to em. https://www.autoflower.org/f44/first-grow-2-x-auto-mazar-2-x-nl-auto-25948.html

Miracle grow and autos are like oil and water. Its burns and stunts seedlings. If you look at post #59 on this link you will see mine at 13 days. Its pretty much what they should look like at that stage. https://www.autoflower.org/f126/island-dr-bromeo-25712-6.html

The miracle grow soil probably damaged and burned the roots and stuned the plant. Very hard to repair, needs a lot of time.

 

[Tonybones]

So should I go ahead and fed them even though they are in miracle grow? Won't I hurt them even more?

NO, when they are that young they are self sufficient they really just need water. If you feed them now you may kill them. If you were to do anything I would maybe water twice as much as the container they are in, but you would run the risk of making them waterlogged. I would just let them do their thing, and see how it goes. If you mess with them too much it can stress them out. When you say 12 days are you counting from when they popped up or when you first got the seeds wet? And how close are the lights to the plants? :karma Cloud:

Romeo is right. No need to feed these at all if in MG soil. There is enough nutrients in MG Soil to last well into the veg cycle.
