They're called cotyledons and yes, they will dry up, it's normal.

They are the "jaws of life" for a seedling.
They plump up with water and help to discard the seed casing.

When their job is done, they are absorbed for their resources.
Just like the fan leaves will be at harvest time.
Plants are amazingly resourceful and conservative critters.:cool:

It could well be lime residue from hard water.
If so, let it be.
It won't hurt anything and the new leaves will be fine.

A close-up picture would be a good thing though.
'Cause, if it's Powdery Mildew, it WILL spread.:(
<Edit> Just took a close look. It's lime scale.:cool:

Be very gentle with the first few feedings.
Babies are quite easy to choke at this point.

Thanks man i appreciate it....im glad that the white powder isnt to bad it had me worrying....im going to be adding some ventilation in there within the next couple days...i have a hole in my wall that leads to the outside...will post picture so people ccan help me with ideas

The little cabinet is the grow room right now...(i Know its to small for flowering,Making flowering room) and theres more closeups of the one u can see it on the most

This shows the Growth in all 3 plants...Its funny all plants were put in same time germinated the same...But one Big ones Medium And ones small...Big 1 is starting to show most potential...Pray for female....Also I posted the pics of the whole by my grow room any ideas i was thinking tubbing but will that help.

Posting both days at once sorry got behind....A question on my medium plant the fist two marijuana leaves to grow have color difference its getting lighter...Is it getting burnt...????pics included

Also notice how my big and small plant are blooming on the bottom leaves now but my medium plant thought bigger then small one is advancing less quick....???

Plants are growing more...Still have discoloration on bottom leaves?is this normal...Please GIVE FEEDBACK...I dont want my babies to die..:thumbsup:..Medium plant is growing slower and slower while rest are doing greeat...

As long as the new growth looks healthy then there shouldn't be anything to worry about, looking good from what I can see :thumbsup:

Also make sure those CFL's are 1-3 inches from the plants maximum. They look a little stretched, you could fill in a couple inches of your container with soil.
