Grow Questions1 week plant “snapped itself”

1 week plant “snapped itself”

FourVentiFarmsstarted grow question 3 years ago

So my 1 week plant just folded on itself like it snapped. Never seen this happen before. I propped it up and hope it recovers. Any reason why it did that?

Give it a chance to come back to life if not just start over. That happens when over watering or not enough water also very high/low RH is no good for them. When they seedlings its like real babies u have to be on top of them . Good luck 👍

Damping off caused by being constantly too wet or in too high humidity. It is usually fatal. Unfortunately, not all seeds make it......

It's called dampen off. It probably won't survive.

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?

Tall seedlings I started with lamp on 80cm, on day 3-4-5, so the stems were growing very tall. I decided to rapidly hang the lamp much closer (40cm on day 6-7). They start "buffing up" now, but 2 of 3 really fell down so i had to start supporting them. Hopefully I made the right choice?
