What's up guys, new here on the forumsas of today. I was a member of cannabis.com but for some reason won't let me log for last two weeks so I just decided to try here because of all the knowledgable post I have read recently whilst scouring the net for mmj grow info.

Ok let's get down to business. I have a delima, one of my new triple strain seedlings is acting up in the first week of life. Shee ( I say that wishfully) is growing bent half way over ( imagine a person stretching by bending down to grab their ankles) and her false leaves are almost hitting the ground. I'm worried that if I can't get her to stand straight again that she isn't going to make it. Any ideas on what ot might be and how to fix. They are trainwreck/jewel of humboldt/uw and I have nev3r work with this plant before, so it has me perplexed.I tried fold her back up right no use she just fell again. The other is bright vivid green and taller and overall bigger, even though they share the same genetics (same seed batch) just confused and scared of plant dying and having to start over again. What should I do?

Welcome to the forums. Be sure to let the soil dry well between waterings. What are they being grown in? Try to post some pics.

Um right now just miricle grow "cactus & succulents) is the growing medium which is a peat moss. And sand and pearlight mixture. With first 3 weeks worth of feeding. And as far as pics working on will have em up later tonight.

Peat and similar soilless mediums need a more acidic pH than regular soil, about 5.9. At least one pH tester is the only tool a grower really needs. In a pinch, cheap testers like capsules, strips &/or drops can be found for as little as a few bucks.

Yeah I was just think dangit I really need a ph level tester. Well good news just got my tax return finally so guess who get to finish building his grow reoom and buy that tool? Lol :P um and about the sick plant let's consider her dead! I plucked her outa the grow box today. I figured the one is growning like a weed (pun inteded) and I have tons more killer bud seeds with better genetics so I will just replant when I find they. Are all germinated ( currently have 5 coming up) some romulan, trainwreck,pot of gold, and thhe jewel x UW x trainwreck... so I think in the long run one failed seedling is no sweat! Also figured out through a little research that jewel a.k.a jewel of humboldt is actually yumboldt!! Whew hooooo! No more confussion there.

Thanks again for the help
