Honestly, the short answer is your seedling looks healthy and is doing well! 👍 The long answer for those curious about the plant science is that with your Mars Hydro LEDs radiant heat won't be an issue, and they are probably not maxing out the PPFD (photosynthetic photon flux density) that the plants can handle. Too much light can cause photosynthesis to outpace the carbon dioxide as a limiting factor, and can begin to damage the plant, but I don't see anything like that happening. Even though the plant is looking pretty good, I would try to raise your humidity just a little bit to 60 or 70rh With a low humidity, the vapor pressure deficit (VPD) the plant can take protective action and begin to draw less moisture and nutrient and therefore have a slower growth and a higher tendency to nutrient burn. Hope that helps, and happy growing!

hi @Mainekneeyak , light is never too much, the more light the more your plant will grow. the problem is the heat of the light. it could be the PH, it should be 6 for the roots of the plant if they can feed under conditions. for it not grow it may be because you have a very wet substrate and the roots block without air, stop growing and soon the plant stops growing. you have to apply less water for each irrigation. But your plant looks nice . Good luck mate 👍

Well I am not an expert grower, but I can see that you have some perfectly healthy plants there! They appear to be right on schedule and they are showing really nice color. Just keep doing what you are doing. Good luck!

Everything actually looks pretty good. There is the tiniest bit of twisting and pitting could be caused by heat and your light. Maybe bump the temp down a couple degrees, increase RH and raise the light a few inches. If they react well, you've solved your problem. Also, there may be a tad over over watering. Could be causing some of your lower leave issues. Good luck👍
