trouble with 2 week old seedlings!Help please!!
First off, those spot lights give off more heat than usable lumens, and likely you've burned em. Old damage never repairs, so old leaves are old news.
Likely a bit of stunting going on, as changing light spectrums will stress a plant. I've never used a 1000w to grow seedlings, but for 5 plants...it's overkill, lol. 5 feet away is the outside edges of usefulness for a 1000w, but do you have an enclosed hood, or is there even glass between the bulb and the plants? (like a bat-wing or parabolic reflector) Check the "Dealing with heat issues" thread in my signature.
Do not add more nutrients, the soil has plenty for a month or two after transplant. Do not let the soil of a seedling overdry. Conversely, don't keep them saturated, either.
Filling-out the troubleshooting form and providing pix would help. Might be something other than the light. (ph issues, additives or teas...)Rusty Trichome Reviewed by Rusty Trichome on . trouble with 2 week old seedlings!Help please!! I am a first time grower. I have 5 2 week old seedlings that germinated by way of propagation kit and sprouted just fine. however i put them under a 120 watt sylvania spot gro at first because my 1000 watt MH hadnt came in yet. well the seedlings started turning yellow a couple days after i put them under the spot gro light and seemed to stop growing. I had them about 1 foot away from the light for these 2 days and then moved it to about 4 feet after they started looking worse. the cotelydons Rating: 5
