I think we are doing good.. getting bushier, a little more lst in 2 out of 4 plants. #2 got a bit of yellow leaf tip but i think its all my fault from lst and and some water..
Added top max to the game and made a break from B52.
looks more like drred up minerals from a drip of water that got on the leaf.
You'll know soon enough.. if it 'grows' you know it's alive and not dried up minerals. It would also be fuzzy not flat.
if it does 'grow', throw it all out. you are early enough that that is the best way to go. neem does not cure it. nothign cures it. not even professional grade antifungals you can only buy if you own a large commercial farm. On a larger plant you try to cut it out and pray it doesn't spread, but by the time you can easily see it, it's already in the air and propagating.
Hmmm i agree with most growers looks like a water droplet stain though if you are certain this is not the case then something else has got on there some how. should be fine just be patient :)
This one came out of soil with 8 days delay compare to the other three (same method, same seeds).
My question is, do i keep it and raise along with the other or it is doomed to be a bad crop from the beginning?
I would 100% keep going with it unless you have a limit to hit and it would affect that.
Just because it’s about a week behind doesn’t always mean it’s going to be any worse than the others. Sometimes it is true and will be a runt but more often they turn out to be just fine.
My suggestion would be that if it is quite a noticeable difference in height compared to the others, prop it up into something to allow it to get the right light instead of staying in lower light.
I hope this helps.
Unless you are limited by space or legal plant limits, there's really nothing to lose giving it a chance to grow. It's gonna produce way more if you let it finish than if you kill it off now. =)
Some of my delayed or mutated plants , despite beeing behind at start, ended up biggest producers.
I would try to nurse, most will say don't waste time.....
Any ideas why this one is laying down on soil, is that normal and healthy? I tried to raise it by touching only the soil but next day was down again.. maybe the light is too close (6cm cfl 250w)?
Thank you all!
Your plant needs some support to hold herself up. I do this by taking wire and making a circle at the top and bending the stake portion down 90 degrees. Put the stem into the loop and steak it down into the dirt so it supports it. The loop is great because it will support it no matter which way it leans.
Also, give her more airflow once you steak it up. This will help strengthen the stalk.
It will eventually grow up to where you do not need to steak it down. This is common with 1 week old plants.
Hope this helps.
It either got a little leggy then top heavy or your light is too close. 4 inches does seem awful close. Honestly high wattage CFLs aren't your best grow light options out there. At a certain point the conversion from energy to light loses efficiency and produces more heat. You're really better off using several low watt CFLs than a single big one. LEDs are really the way to go anymore, best conversion efficiency out there.
Guess its because of the way it grew out. Maybe wasnt deep enough? If it would be sun it would turn the leaves away or more likely just burn itself, not bend its stem down. They arent that intelligent, those stupid plants :D
You can put more soil, give the soil a slight pad( dont make it rockhard tho) and/or use something to stabilize, it will stand by itself in a week or so
So,i've notice a few yellow tips on some leafs, some also look a bit tired if not dead.. i have constant high temp 33 celcious and 35 humidity.Lamp at 20cm.Water 500ml every other day.Iis this due to heat,nutrients, over/under watering?did i stress it a lot with lst? any advices?
Your VPD is 1.5(much to high) , but should be around 0.6-0,8 in early veg.
If you cannot get your temperature below 30°, you have to get humidity to 65-70%.
Here's a good tool for VPD :

Using it myself, with an infraredthermometer (10-20 €) you can get perfect VPD.
Happy growing ;-)
33c is to high and rh is too low.
For those plants are this stage
25c is their peak window
They're been crippled by your environment.
Lower your light %, but a fan so it blows on your light. Turn up your exhaust to full
You can add extra co2. This would combat the heat. You need higher RH with it though. Again 35 rh is half of what it should
Hi, I'm sure not an expert, but in my opinion, 33° is too much and 35° humidity is a bit too low. In week 4, I try to get temps between 24° and 27° and not more than 30°. and humidity around 55°. Also, 20 cm between the lamp and plant seems too close for me.
I know i have high temps and low humidity levels, i can't do anything at this point, its the worst season to grow now but its my first grow and had to try it.
