friends, although these 3 plants are treated the same, the seedling leaves on the lower left are looking downwards. What could be the reason for this? 20/4 works under 7k lux light. Toprak biobizz light mix.

Don't worry, they will be fine. 18/6 is best. Tiny cups are far from ideal for starting plants. Pots about 4 inches across and 5 inches deep are far, far better.

yes, they have holes under them, but they all live the same life and there is only one problem with them. I did not understand that either.

Ah the owl plastic cup issue. Okay, when using these. You really need to go lightly on the water. Until a proper root zone is made. You really need to baby what's been made underneath. And to be blunt, your roots can't breath. I suggest you uppot to a bigger pot. Pour water at the sides so the roots reach out to these wet points. And in doing so, they catch o2/co2 to the dry/ing soil. Same goes for when it's older. And the top dries in, o2 is drawn into your root zone. I don't like dixy cups. Also, what will compound the issue, (you did punch holes in the end for any extra fluid to run out right?
