Alright so i went out all day yesterday to smoke with a couple buddies. So when 1 plant was a lil yellowish at the tip of tthe leaf. And i think this is because my light moved side ways and it was above just that leaf. And the soil was dry when i got home.
i waterd it and set the lihts up better again . Do u guys think it will survive. Confused on what to do =(. any suggestions is helpful , thannks ohh yeah the plants are 8 days old and have 3 sets of leaves.

peace

it will survive, if that's what happened with the light then it's likely that the light was burning the tip of the leaf.

i suggest taking a pair of sharp scissors and cutting off the yellow part of the leaf.

it should be fine

cut the yellow part off or the dead tissue will spread. by cutting it off you save the rest of the plant

whenever i see a dying leaf or leaflette (the tip of the leaf) i cut off the dead tissue and try to fix whatever it is i've done wrong...

it should just grow like normal.. as long as the light touching/burning the leaf is the only cause of it

make sure your plant is always in a big enough pot looks like you have it in a plastic cup there check the root to see if its not pot bound..

Might as well re-pot since that 'pot' for your pot you've got there looks quite dinky. I agree with those who said to cut the yeller crap off the plant and I wouldn't worry about it too much. I've seen mine bent sideways and the color purple after they sprouted and got those to thrive later on. Weed is weed indeed and weeds love to grow so you shouldn't have a problem. :D

yes i know what u mean niftynifty. the current plant (marijuana) I am growing now and the only one I have grown was rescued from a bowl during smoking. and that bowl had been cherrying a lot. it grew up into a nice little female though.

rofl wow, a roasted seed not only grows.. but is female also?
that's a damn good story to tell the grandkids

"I once smoked a seed, then grew it!"

luckily the seed didn't light on fire. But i'm surprised it didn't hurt the seed because the temp of the fire around it. yeah I gotta tell grandchildren that story around a fire though.

one time 2 of us were puffin back a big reef and it had a bunch of seeds in it. When the reef popped and popped a bunch of seeds popped out and fell to the ground right beside the sunny side of an old barn wall in the spring.I'l tell ya's there was a barnwall bush of plants that grew primo that year at that spot.

roots don't like light

dont use cups man get them in a BIG plant pot and watch them fly up makes all the differance as you need lots of roots to have a nice healthy plant good luck...

first
yea cups are not good at all, what i do is i germinate my seeds, then i put that seed inside the soil in a big pot, like 1 inch and a half inside the soil, the more you trans plant the more you stress and bother your plant.

second
watch the overwatering bro
