Seedlings - Over-watering?
XelpGrowsstarted grow question 3 years ago
Hello all, I just started my first grow. I was thinking I may have exposed the seedlings to excess humidity (90% in cloning chamber)causing the cotyledon to curl down on one side. Wanted to get some feedback if my assumption is correct as the soil looks and feels quite dry.

High XelpGrows,
When you grow from seeds you do not need high humidity. Clones do not have a tap root that is why they need high humidity. But when you grow from seeds the plants will have a tap root from the start.
Your soil is dry but wet enough!
She looks beautiful so no need to worrie and she is busy growing her root system and her first true leaves.
Happy Growing! 😋

Wind burn or over water?The leaves on my plants are getting a little crooked. Look at the last photos in week 3 to see. My fan is in low pointing away from the plants. The little guys move around a little bit, but I’m worried it’s too much. Or am I overwatering? If look, you’ll see I don’t wander much.4 years ago

Curly LeavesDer growers, the leaves of the plant in the plastic container are curling down. Do you have any idea why? I read that it might be overwatering or underwatering but i dont think so. You think I should transplant in a fabric container or make more holes in the plastic one?Week 2

Have popped 2 seeds, 1st week of grow.
One plant started to roll down her leaves extremely right after losing the shell. Anyone knows why? What to do?
Had extreme dry RH in first days, it dropped down to 36% sometimes. Both plants have root fungus in substrate.
Thanks!4 years ago
