Seedling leaves wrinkly/shrivled - pics

[stewie21]

Current setup: 2 27w daylight CFLs, a 6" oscillating fan, Miracle Grow moisture control soil, stealthified dresser

Yea the soil kinda sucks but the native soil around here is bullshit and i had a bag of the MG so i flushed it out a couple times before i planted the seed, so hopefully it'll work fine.

I noticed that the new leaves were a little wrinkly/curly, is this bad and is there anything that could be causing this?

im no expert but miracle grow soil is no good. especially the moisture control because it doesnt drain well aat all not allowing the roots to breath.

also you may want to change tho lil pot that its in....roots need darkness and a clear cup is no good....so change soil and pot and you should be good to go

Thanks for the reply. Do you think I'd be safe with mixing half native soil (very sandy) and half MG? The sandiness would probably improve drainage eh?

I wouldn't worry about that tiny amount of curling leaves, move your lights farther away I would say it looks like leaf burn from the light.
