Seedling problem pls help.

[davisgirl]

I dont know whay someone would suggest to give up so easily.

I can explain why. Because I’ve wasted time and resources on seedlings I should have culled, but instead allowed myself to be suckered into all manner of resuscitation thinking it was the right thing to do. Nursing an ailing plant along to it’s eventual lackluster harvest. It’s 5 days old, minimal investment.

Here’s another reason, my 5 day old seedlings:

It’s a conflicting opinion, but it happens. I think the OP should get the benefit of considering all his options.

I would definitely be mulling it over. Sure it might make it, but a good chance now its going to be a runt. At 7 days I might pull the plug. Really depends on his situation. In Canada we can only grow 4 plants. Not sure I would want to risk a spot. I would have to factor in my seed supply and cost of seeds.

I've been thinking a lot lately about cost/benefit of when it's too late to pull the plug.. It's kind of hard because you don't really know most of the time what you are going to get until about 25 days in. And not sure at the point if it's worth it or not.

Youre in DWC!! Of course growth is going to be crazy fast lol. For us soil or coco growers its slower.

Like I said before, his seedling is fine. Ive had seedlings pop out of the shell pale but they green up.
OP dont water until its dry. Seedlings dont need much nutrition. I would start with about 50-100 ppm on the 700 scale. Next feed after the soil has dried out feed that. Itll green up and be fine.

Haha! Not so fast though, they haven’t even hit the water yet.

Seriously, I’ve been burned a couple times recently sinking time and resources on plants that I wish I had given a little more thought to straight up starting over. And I’ve restarted a couple plants that turned out smashing. These 2 plants are 10 days apart in age. One plant was the result of a restart, and one I’ve been nursing along.

Nursing along, day 56:

Restart at day 66 after original plant did poorly entire week 2:

Still. Its only 5 days old. I would give it at least 5 more days.
The size of plants depends on genetics as well. Theres too many variables going into this. Some strains grow fast some slow.
That plant in your first pic looks like it has mutations. Mutations and runty plants should definitely can be culled in my experience.
We dont even see the first true set of leaves on his seedling fully realized yet. So, culling it now would make no sense.
It may be stunted but when its unstunted he will get an idea of the big picture.

You may be 100% correct. My gut says

Go with logic and not feeling. Youll thank me later

Hi! This is my third grow but first coco coir grow in my 90x90 mammoth pro tent.
I got 3 x Quick one auto from royalqueenseed and 1 Northern lights auto also from royalqueenseed.
Lights:
1 mars hydro reflector 48 (150w)
1 mars hydro eco 60 (150w)
I am using bio nova cocobrix with 20% perlite in 4 19L smartpots.
Temperature is 24-28c° and humidity is 30-40%
The nutritions I use is GHE flora coco grow and bloom 0,5ml/2,5L
Biobizz root juice 2ml/2,5L
(I also got GHE diamond nectar, biobizz grow, bloom, alg-a-mic and topmax. But I don't know if they're needed for this grow.)
I am using my tap water with GHE ph down to ph 5,5 but I haven't checked my run off yet.

All seedlings looks healthy except one. One off them looks weak, pale and yellowish. I have no idea why this is and i hope someone here can help me.
Is it to much or to little nutes? Ph-problem? Root problem?
Please help me.View attachment 1051076

:smoking: Is this one of the Quick's, or the NL? A couple better pics would help, less harsh light, normal light and a top shot please,...
... She's looking shaky, but let's see what a few more days brings; sometimes these slow starters catch up, sometime not so much.. Time will tell, and if she lacks vigor, it's a fair bet she'll be some degree of runty...
... could also be trouble below, which can make for drawn out deaths at times- ... if it's damping off below, you'll know soon enough... Pending pics, if her color is really pale, that's not a good sign... Truth is, any seed is a little gamble and it's not uncommon to get a sickly/feeble seedling... Some weird shaping of the cotyl's isn't alarming per se though,... the first true leaves are emerging? I can't quite tell...
