Are the cotyledons supposed to go away? Mine are l...
Fruitgroweranswered grow question 5 years ago
Hey dude and welcome to the community! They are nothing to worry about really, sometimes they fall off sometimes they don't. What I would worry about is giving nutrients so early because you can see its already damaging the plant (the yellow leaf tips) I would hold off for one more week on nutes and then start to add little by little. As we say on the kitchens, "you can always add but can't take away"

what a great observation for a first grow.Day by day.You are definitely right,600 ppm roughly equals to 1.2 EC which is pretty high for a seedling but you've already seen it so there is no problem.Cotyledons getting yellow usually means hunger.Yours don't look hungry as I can see cotyledons in the last pic.Just try to control feeding routine and it will thrive in no time.0.8 - 1 EC is optimal for this stage,then you can increase gradually over time.You can check out my blue dreams on my actual diary.Good luck

Hi Wings
You don't have to worry to much absolutely normal.
Cotyledons are there to provide your seedlings with enough nourishment for the seedlings until first set off true leaves appear then their job is done.
Photosynthetic cotyledons remain on the plant until the first true leaves appear and can begin to perform photosynthesis.
This is generally just a few days and then the seed leaves fall off. ... Some plants' cotyledons persist for up to a week or two but most are gone by the time the first two true leaves are evident
Hopefully this helps
Good luck with your grow.

Oh ya! Easy question. Yep! Cots are just temporary to help get her going. After your first set of true leaves come in, the cots free ride is over. They will die out and we need to remove them. This is 100% normal and expected. Nothing to be concerned about at all.
Any other questions? Throw me a message in PM ! Looking good keep it up!☺️🙁

Big difference in first true leaves' sizeBig difference in first true leaves' size
Its almost day 5 after emergence. Is this normal? Should I be concerned?
ALSO: It's still a seedling but, I maybe think the cup in which i'm growing it in is too small, or rather I put too little soil (9cm diameter , 4cm tall dirt).

First Grow 4 weeks into Veg - Let my humidity get too high for 1 night. Need help with mold/septoria/?Last 3 days I've pruned diseased leaves every morning, foliar sprayed peroxide leaves & topsoil, & added some to watering solution. Is only affecting one plant in tent. Humidity no longer issue (was waiting 4 inline fan). If I keep pulling off leaves it's going to die anyway.

3 days in, only cotydelons with no sign of the first true leaves. Have you seen this and has it recovered?This plant was stunted at the start after he couldn't get his hat off, but now looks pretty healthy however it's been 3 days of just cotydelons and absolutely no sign of the first true leaves. Have you had this before and did it recover to eventually grow true leaves?

Stains on the plantHey guys,
first of all, thank you for taking the time to read this. I started growing my first canopy and since I am little excited, I started before everything I ordered arrived. For that reason, I am still using the soil I used while planting the seed. Did I fuck up already?

Brown spots on top leaves - nutrients, light or something else?She went into flower, now stretching. Set light to 100%, added Bio-Bizz Top-Max and Bio-Bloom (1ml/L each).
3 days later brown spots appeared on top fan leaves, very few also on lower fan leaves.
I suspect this could be light burn or nutrient related.
Any ideas? Pls help

Insects, Mutation or related to my early nutrient burn ?Hey I noticed that one leave is looking like it has been eaten by something.. I checked every plant and also used yellow stickers, but can’t seem to find anything.
Is this related to insects or could it be something else ? (The plant had an early nutrient burn, but recovered)
