Just don't overwater and be sure to relax. Trying to correct problems that don't exist is one of the most common issues I see. They don't need any nutrients for the first 10-14 days (sometimes longer). Otherwise, don't worry, she is focused on developing a root system right now.

Did I need to size up to larger rockwool cubes?Geminated seeds in 1x1x1 rockwool cubes. End state is to be in 5 gallon buckets with 8" net pot and clay pebbles. I figured the roots are too small to reach all the way into water solution still so put small cubes into 4x4x4 rockwool. Did I need to use larger cubes?
