The Cotyledon leaves dried up so I put this seedling back into the humidity dome. Now its growing some crazy weird leaves. Should I grow it out or call it a loss?

Second seed had been growing wrong way up.
Turns out my second seed was growing upside down and the taproot had been growing towards the light for ~8 days. I've since transplanted and the seed doesn't seem to be growing much at all; although it has changed colour from being a yellowish hue to green. Is it likely a dud now

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.

Seedling looking bad (not opening its leafs)
Seedling number 2 had a hard time germinating with my Easy-Start kit. He took a long time to pop out of the soil and looks like he is in bad condition, I dont know what I did wrong. Please let me know what I can do and if you think he'll make it. Thx

Browning seedling stalk
It's about 3 inches tall and the stalk around the dirt is starting to brown. I am hoping I was over watering and have stopped watering it for 2 days now hoping it will dry out more and see if the color gets lighter. What else could I be doing wrong

Seedling leaves turning white, no true leaves
Why have my seedling leaves turned white? One of them sprouted 3 days ago and it’s first true leaves haven’t sprouted yet? I am growing in coco and perlite and watering with water and rhizotonic? Is it because I haven’t let the soil dry out and I’m watering it everyday?

Need some advice for these seedlings - suspect it could be early cal-mag deficiency. Thoughts?
These seedlings are growing with nicely but I have noticed some slight dis-coloration on the seedlings once the domes came during hardening, medium is moist and light PPFD is hovering around 220-250, avg day temps are 24c and night temps are 22c, using RO water.

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.

Best homemade/purchased seedling care kits?
What is the best way to keep humidity and temp constant for my seedlings? My desklamp + heating mat + solocup and dome are too variable. How can I improve?

Seedling with yellowish tips
Hey this is my first grow and I would appreciate some advice. My seedling is starting to have a light color/yellowish edges. It is under a Spiderfarmer 1000 quantum board (100ish wats) and about 20'' from the plant. The temp is around 80 and humidity 40-50. Is this normal?

Cotyledon Leaves Just randomly dried up very young seedling.
If anyone could help me figure out why my blue dream may have dried out randomly on me id appreciate it. I took it out of dome as soon as the Cotyledon leaves were fully opened as per usual. Thanks guys I did pluck the seed shell off it but I thought I was very gentle.

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
