New Grower Newbie Needing Help - 2 Weeks Into 1st Grow

[fever86]

As you can see I've got some really droopy, sad looking plants. Watered on Friday & have been looking a bit sad since. They did pick up slightly but seem worse today. Maybe over watering?

The second one has been that yellowish colour since it sprouted, not sure why?

I'm using bio bizz all mix & haven't used anything but water so far.

Thanks

theres your problem mate bio bizz all mix is well to hot for seedlings:smokebuds:
Best to start seedlings in lightmix for at least the first two -three weeks.. Also go over to the intro section the link is in my signiture at the bottom and tell us about yourself any grows done or the grow your doing and what Nutes, lights etc mate good look and try remember no all mix for seedlings :thumbs:

It's my first ever grow so learning from my mistakes as I go. I did get mixed advice on the all mix but decided to go with it after seeing a few diaries that went the same route. I'll have to just leave them be & hope for the best.

I'm being told that they should be moved into bigger pots in the next few days but was a bit concerned about stressing them when they're already looking a bit sad. Any thoughts?

Thanks

Lots of luck to ya, si is right you don't wanna feed them too early. Autos are quite sensitive when it comes to nutes. See if you can get them a little stronger in my opinion, before transplanting. Autos arent real keen on being transplanted.

Much luck and stay positive with them. Sending lots of green kharma your way:smokebuds:

Thanks man! I'll let them do their thing for a few days & see how they go. I've never even grown cress in a yoghurt pot so this is a steep learning curve. Been enjoying it up until now but seeing them like this is a bit disheartening.

Its not the best start for seedling but they might be fine just make sure you dont feed any nutes yet,let the all mix get rid of its stuff first around 3weeks or so and i would leave a little longer till you transplant as stylez said let them get a bit stronger first.. Just for future referance try put your seeds into there final pots some people tier them first but its the best way:thumbs:

 

[fever86]

Definitely going straight into their final pots next time. I'm glad I don't need to transplant yet, it's one thing I'm worried about. It's hard to just leave them when I know they're a bit unwell but I'm sure I'll only make things worse if I start messing with them.

best way i messed about loads with my first grows and they got stunted but its easy once you get your head around it all:thumbs:
Yh your rite best to leave them alone try not to water too much let the soil dry first but not bone dry should be a little moist 2inch down and best to let your tap water stand for 24hrs+ before watering it will rid any chlorine in there.. Also do you have a PH pen and are you going to be using the bio bizz nutes?

 

[fever86]

I've been letting the water stand but I've only got PH strips so not the most accurate. I've got Bio Bizz Grow / Bloom which I'm told start at around week 3 but I'll probably check here now I know it exists to get some advice.

Of the six I've got going those 2 are the worst looking (except the 2 that I accidentally potted together! They were split about a week ago & haven't grown as quickly so haven't got high hopes for them).

I think the watering is my main problem. 4 of my pots are almost bone dry & the plants in them look OK, only slight curling at the tips of the leaves. The two I posted here are still quite moist a couple of inches in so suggests that I put too much water in them?
