Okay so I have this seedling that seems to be going VERRYY verryy slowly. The two round leafs that break the seed are sorta of not healthy looking? The first set of leafs that normally come; are pointing upwards, very small, deformed looking, but to me I can't say they are not healthy looking because they don't look too bad to me at this point (knock-on-wood ;))
->When I was first starting off stupid me accedently damaged the white part that comes out of the seed..the root?.....the very tip of it broke off. I am just a beginner but am guessing that had something to do with it?:(:mad:
Other than that anyone have any ideas on how I can 'save' it? or what I can/should do at this point?

Pics Below :)
Sorry thats the best quality pics I can get, better than nothing though :)

you dont want to damage a tap root. grow it and see what happens. a lot of times it will pull through and by 2nd gen it will be fine. the other thing might be genetics, which you didnt specify. bagseed can be unpredictable.

By genetics do you mean strain? or like clone or seed?
Because it was a seed and strain is :Bubba Kush (Bubble Gum x OG Kush)
And for sure... i'll keep doing what I am and see what happens

too early to tell, let them do their thang and they will let you know how they feel. you are going to want more soil in your pots tho, maby when you transplant you can take care of that, no biggie tho...now we wait. . . . . . . . .

Yea.. actually I had about an inch and a half of soil more in there but it somehow got less -.- ...Maybe from watering? For sure, I will add more soil after.
And incase you can't really tell what's happening in the pic/ an update on the girlyy ;)

The two circle leafs that break the seed are curled downwards and are a pale brown/grey color. The first set of pointy leafs look like someone came and twisted the tips of them. (Imagine making a leaf out of play-doh and twisting the tip..that is pretty much what it looks like)

-I guess my only option is to let her keep going and see what happens :):jointsmile:
