Need to water with ph between 6.3-6.8 . It’s not up taking all the available nutrients in that soil if you are not within that range. Get that right and she’ll turn it around and start growing faster as well. Make sure your water is about 75 degrees as well . She’ll thank you for it

Did you read my post? The ph is around 5.7 -6.5. I started there first nutrient feeding. I spoke with someone and he stated my seeds germinated at 100% and if everything is optimal and all other seeds are doing good it could be just that seedling probably just won't make it and doesn't trualy mean something is wrong. Its been bout 14 days since they germinated.

Yes I did read your post. That’s why I’m stating that your ph range beginning at 5.7 is TOO low! 6.3 should be the lowest in soil.. you stated you are using Fox farm but which product of theirs ? Most of their souls you wouldn’t need to feed for a month or even more. You have plant issues and I’ve already pointed out 2 issues that are probably causing said problem .. 1) ph is too low and 2) feeding too early .

Just water with plain tap water. FFOF sometimes is hot for seedlings and they can look a little rough in the beginning. They'll outgrow it. The more you mess around with things the bigger chance to screw things up.

No I do not im just going by the lamp specs. I figured out the issue. Its a Nitrogen deficiency which was what I figured, they want nutrients so I started yesterday and they will start respond to the feedings. The Fox Farm soil doesn't contain enough nutrients past 14 days but they say go by plants not by thinking. Once plant show it start feeding nutrients they said so thats why.
