Seedling problem

This seedling is about 2 weeks old. As seen in the pics the tips of the leaves turned brown and are curling up. This is my very first grow. I've been watering it until water starts to drain from the bottom of the pot and dont water again until the soil is dry. Does anyone know what is wrong with this seedling?

What soil are you using? and have you givin it any nutrients?

I am using miricle grow potting soil. I haven't added any nutes.

MG is a little hot for seedlings, it's a good idea to mix it with some cheap sphagnum moss for seedlings, a party cups worth. After a few weeks it should be strong enough for full strength MG soil.

I consider adding lime a necessity for soil grows, cannabis takes a lot of calcium out of your soil causing your soil ph to drift towards acidic. There are ways around this, but the easiest is adding lime.

so should i add a little lime to the soil now then?

Sure, you can top-dress with a few tsp, mix it in with the top layer.

are there any home made or cheaper alternatives.

You won't invest $3.50 into your grow?

Oh, I'd leave them for now, address the problem when you get paid.

alright, I just searched online and found I can get some from lowes for $2.50, so once i get paid I'll get it taken care of. Thanks for the help. I'll keep you posted. +rep
