Do you have a solution to stop the growth of stems?
Apparently this would be due to a lack of light and stress because of the too high temperature. I exposed them in a brighter place and I controlled the temperature to a maximum of 25/26°C. It doesn't seem to stop... How can I repair the damage? Is it too late? Thanks in advance.

Stunted seedlings
Im currently running 4 plants. 2 are looking amazing for 2nd week from seed. The other two are struggling. Should i just run 2, or try revive / catch up the other 2? They’re half the size :(

Leave humidity dome on seedlings?
Once the seedlings pop can I poke some more holes in the cups and leave them on for a while longer to maintain high humidity or will that put them at risk of rotting?

Time to transplant to defenitive pot? Auto strain.
Anyone knows when to transplant to definitive pot? What is better, wait 2 week after germination (so 1w more) then transplant to 14L pot or transplant now... I'm opened to any experienced advises and suggestions. 😅

Seedlings under the sun
Does anyone knows what is happening with my seedlings? I placed them today for the first time under the sun. I thought they were not getting enough light. When I went to check on them they were all wilted and fallen over.

Runnoff measuring results are not what I expected.
Hello, I have a question. When you look at my diary, I find my runnoff measurments to be concerning. Why do you think my PPM is so high and my pH so low? How do I measure my runnoff correctly? Do I filter it before reading or do I let it wait?

Do I need to have my light turned on to start my germination!?
Just wondering if I need to turn the light on in my tent whilst I germinate, I plan to soak in water then possibly transfer to a paper towel after or into my final pot, so in short does the light need to be on for the 3 day germination period?

Light Burn? Mars Hydro TS3000 at 30% Power, 26 inches away per manual. I have since raised back to 30 inches.
Is this light burn? I noticed some slight yellowing/crispy looking leaf at day 11. Light is about 30% Power, about 30 inches away. I previously had it about 26 inches and raised when I noticed this issue about 24 hrs ago. Pics are updated. Temps: 70-75 RH: 50-60 Soil Runoff: 6.5

Hello. After 30 years of growing, I've found my first twin. Can they be separated? Have you heard of it being done or have you done it or should I just cut the weaker stem out? What other advice can you give on this matter. Chuck.

Can a 1000w LED grow light be closer than 60cm (24") to a seedling?
Different sources are saying: 1000w LED light should not be closer to a seedling than 60-75cm (24"-30"). The seedling should be getting 5000-7000 lux, 100-300 PAR (PPFD 18h) and 12-20 DLI. Question: Can I put the light closer at ~40cm, dimmed to match the needed lux, par and dli
