Droopy seedling

Magic43562started grow question 5y ago

I only water as needed, making sure the soil is dry before I apply water. I do not soak the soil all crazy. I pour enough to where I know it’s getting to the bottom and stop. Should I not water this girl for a couple of days, she’s looking a little droopy after watering today.

You should be able to tell if the pots/cups are dry or not by weight, even if there is some rundown, there are times where soil is so dry, some channels might form or the same soil contracts, and the water goes straight trought the bottom from this holes or the borders of the cups/pots. So even when you see some runoff, the soil is really dry.

Are there drain holes? If not, make some, because that looks waterlogged. Definitely don't water again until top layer of substrate is dry.

Crinkled Seedling Leaves The Sweet Amnesia Haze on Day 13 (last photo in week 2) has crinkled leaves. It’s only it’s second set of real leaves and I give it the same water I give to the other plants with the same properties. Does it look like there’s anything wrong?

In the middle of the picture from day 25 there is something weird going on with the new growth (next picture is more detailed). One side is growing really slow, the other looks like it never grew/was eten/something. It is kind of brown/red-ish. Is this a deficiency or windburn?
