Kirkuss I'm a novice grower..this is my 1st grow with a homemade grow tent (4' x 2' x6')..I'm using cfl for seedling straight through vegetation and plan on switching to led for bloom. I will be making notes frem seed to harvest. This is actually my very 1st week (from seed to seedling)..no nutrients used as yet..just sprinkling it with some rainwater and keeping the soil moist for now.

Kirkuss This week both plants leaves started turning yellow and drooping..thought it was overwatering so i held back..wasn't that. Maybe not watering enough..wasn't that. Didn't take pics but not giving up on them just yet..will update next week with pics.

Kirkuss Ok..so what i did was i took the seedlings out n basically gave both a gentle flush of the roots..mixed up the soil n planted them back in, cut off the lower yellow leaves..watered with rainwater n let them be. The next day i could see the leaves coming back up n actually getting back color..i do believe these plants have been stressed out to the max but I'm still gonna see what comes of it. Also moved them to a cooler environment and started using LED growlights.

Aw, I hope they come through for you. Try checking the pH of the water, 6-7 is ideal for the plants, but rainwater can be acidic around 5, so it might induce nutrient lock-out. Letting tap water sit for a day allows it to dechlorinate and should work for watering too depending on where you live.
