I have some cheese and bleuberry seedlings that dont look very healthy
First time i have had a problem with seedlings?
Im using the new vita link soil mix and im hoping it aint that, has anyone else used this soil?
I got them under a 250 cfl, no nutes have been used
The seedlings first 2 set of proper leaves are yellow, the new growth looks fine
If some one could give me some advice, that would be very helpfull
thankyou
p.s vita link professional enriched soil

It's really hard to guess without a visual to go with your description....
It might be the "new" soil.... Especially since you say this is your first adverse experience with seedlings....

I will post pics as soon as i can, thankyou for the feedback
I think it is the soil, to many nutes in it for seedlings:(
Will continue just water for the next week or two, maybe a bit of super thrive
Some of the seedlings have purple stems, now thats either a problem or it's because of the strain(blueberry)
thankyou again for the help, still comment if you have had similair problems please
pics on way

Turns out it was under ferts that was the problem. It is recommended that you use ferts from day one with this soil.
All is ok now and i thank you all for replying
Lol reading back I'm so glad I didnt just give them water they surely would have died!

Here's the girls, little worried about the height diffrence,
the stretched one is blueberry, likkle one is exodus cheese:stoned:
as you can see i have already topped the blueberry but it still outgrows the cheese:(

The Blueberry probably has sativa dominant genes.... While the exodus has indica dom genes.... Possibly....:jointsmile:....

what should i do just put bricks under the cheese raising the plant to equal height? or keep topping the blue?
They are now under a 600w hps with airwing, and im feeding these lucky ladies with suger peak( the best imo)

notice the bottom leaves by zoooming in that is a result of under fertilization where as before i would have thought that it was over ferts. with the leaf burn?

I prefer LST over topping....but both work....
Might want to drop that 600 a bit.... Them blueberry look a little stretched, even for a 600... Kid you not, my 1k sits 18" from the tops.... Do the back of hand method to make sure you don't put it too close....
