alright. i have 3 seedlings, well they are almost 3 weeks now but they still look like seedlings. all of them look like crap but two of them are worse than the other. a little background. im using cfls (i got the right kind, enough watts and kept them within an inch or two all the time) in a closet grow. they are on an 18/6 schedule. i have ocean forest soil with 30% perlite and 20% vermiculite. ive only used distilled water so far. they are in peat pots. i watered every 2 or 3 days. what i think (hope) went wrong was that the first 10 or 12 days of their life, i couldnt really control the temp. it got up to around 90F a few times but usually stayed at 86F. the humidity was also down around 20-25%. could the temp and humidity be enough to make these guys look like this. oh yeah. one time i watered with half strength big bloom and i sprayed the leaves with it a few times too. but i think the plants were doomed before that. im about to plant a few more seedlings and i dont want to have the same problems. is there somethin im overlooking? what caused these plants to go bad. and if you cant tell in the pics, they are still only like an inch tall and an inch wide. thanks for the help
