Seedling Leaves Drooping (8 days old)
BakedPandastarted grow question 3 years ago
Hi,
Need some advice for my first grow.
Noticed today that the seedling's leaves are starting to droop, they were close to 180 degrees horizontal the day before and I have no idea what is going on.
Flushed the pot with water to check drainage, and waters passing through well

I’m not sure how old your seedling is but it looks like it’s stretching out and too leggy. Maybe you should try lowering your light and water when the soil is dry.

@Aquemini ahh thanks for that, great pick up. I've switched the heat mat off.
Another question, I changed my LED lights that I'm using from el-cheapo amazon one (3 bendy LED strips on a clamp) to a VIPARSPECTRA VA600 on the lowest dim setting. I increased the distance from the light to ~30cm as well, but i guess to your suggestion that this new + more powerful light could be causing it...ill try increasing the distance further tonight.
Thanks guys!

Could be overwatered. But that bend looks like its trying to get away from the light intensity. Also don't use that heating pad if you are. Once they pop and open there leaves you don't want to apply any heat to the roots. Hot roots will heat stress a plant real fast.

Yeah, going to not water at all for next 24-48hrs and see how it goes. I thought it might be humidity, room reading was at 42%...so I put a dome over it as well to sit under the lights (bad idea?)

Leaves have developed "claws" at the tips that bend downwardsMy leaves have developed "claws" at the tips that bend downwards.
I suspect there is too much nitrogen because I probably used too much root juice. (Approx 8ml, scale was inaccurate)
Now my question to the professionals: what can I do to fix the problem?

Am I overthinking things?Any idea what’s going on with these ladies? Or am I just over thinking. They just seem a little unhappy. Watered 750mil yesterday morning the last time before that was 500mil Saturday night. Could they be a little overwatered?

Too many nutes? but a couple days with water only and it's still getting worse. The other plant seems fine. The buds seem OK. Maybe heat? Soil is 69F. Overwater?

What do you think is wrong with my plant. It's starting to grow nicely but was really slow at first. Tips curling down. One leaf crispy.What do you think is wrong with my plant? In promix moisture soil. Fed nutes twice. 2mL of micro, grow, and bloom. Last feeding I added 5mL of calmag. Soil is 100% inert at least from my research. Watering once soil is dry (every 5-7 days) One leaf is crispy. Tips curling down.
