Well these are my newest babys....9 Days Old....seeds out of a couple bags a cronic...starting about 8 more plants in my stelth computer case...later today....all the seeds are from cronic
Day 10....one of them are like dark purple....and my temp is 78-80....
I have had that exact same problem with seedlings. I recently found out that it is in need of some (K) Potasium and at that young stage they probs need a good N P K in a tiny amount.
just what I have found out though. I don't know too too much. But In my last 3 grows I have finally learned that. red Stems and veins are bad...
And some strains handle it better than others.
Check the Plant Problems for the charts people have been posting there is one with an exact picture of what your seedling looks like. Droooped curled leaves and red stems etc.

Check my sig for the deficiency chart and a plant problems guide.
Good luck with your grow.
Yes that plant chart in his Sig is the exact chart I was reefering too.
Good Luck.
Mine turned right around after adding the proper tiny amount of nutes. The purpal is slowing going awaand not showing up on any new growth.

well here is the pix for day 12....and i started off 4 more plants...let me know whats going on with my purple plant....i put the rockwool in some soil with some nutes...lil bit...:jointsmile:
ok from wat i read n the LITTTLE (have to put it again) LITTLE exp i have i would say that that one plant need more (k) then anythin else to much (n) could burn up ur plants....try to find a soil with more (k) for when u transplant them, it should help
well almost every seedling I have ever started has looked like yours, 4 Times I have grown. They do turn around but I would love to not have them start out that way.
See how the leaves curl down badly, that looks like over watering. However my last time around I made sure not to over wate rand I still got the same problem. I realtied it to the No nutes. I will be adding nutes after the first week next time around. just to see what happens.
I also couldn't help but notice you low Humidity levels If i read it right your at 20%? im pretty sure you don't want to fall below 40% maybe this is contributing to the downward curl.
I struggles to keep mine at 40% and somtimes it would dip to 35%
next time Im gonna add some nutes earlier in my seedlings life. Hopefully it will help, you should add a little to one plant and see what happens your only a couple weeks in now. and you ahve started more so why not learn with one?
just some ideas froma still new grower.

As well I think it might be and idea to add air holes to the bottoms of the Second cups. Not on the bottom so water leaks out but above on the sides so air can get in. I have noticed new potting Pots at the stores have this. It makes sense so stale water doesn't sit in the bottom of the pot under the soil. Without the holes that would basically be the same as haveing no holes in the bottom of the pots becasue the cups together are air tight with the weight right?
Perhaps get some trays to use instead of a second cup.
just an idea again...

wait so how can u get rid of the droopin? and purpleness i can get rid of with potassium? thanks check out my grow too the links in my sig
i just added a air conditioner to my grow box.....i keep it on 60....its stays about 67-78 in my cab. thats without the 100 watt hps on.....with it on it gets about 80-90.....let me know if this is ok thanx

what temprature are those lights? they look warm white to me, if so you've got far too much red light on them instead of blue which you should be given them for veg growth, that my explain there small size for there age, also temps are a little to high around 90 try and get that temp down to 80
they are soft white bulbs....
ye you realy want cool white or daylight
are the soft white bad
