My seed sprouted and stayed sideways and the first leaves haven't opened... been almost 2 days since it surfaced.im wondering if it's damping off? Or if yall have any other ideas let me know. It's lemon skunk The soil was really dry so I misted before I took the pics.
Just regular potting soil no added nuts. .. I lightly pressed the soil and misted it with spray bottle.
Is your humidity, heat and light good? I'm new grower also sprouted tons no prob they pop out and point at the light. I just use 6500 cfl Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
Mix 10ml of 3% hydrogen peroxide with 100ml of water and foliar spray the youngling.. do this 2 times a day and see if she peeks up! Keep Ph around 6.3-6.5 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yes. Peroxide kills fungal and mould infections.. feeds and oxidises the roots and purifies the seedling. I recommend you try this as a last resort and is highly unlikely to cause more damage. Ur seedling turns pale then yellow when dead or dying.. if she is green then she needs support. Sometimes necrotic growth can kill and will turn the stem purple to dark brownish if indeed it is Pythium!?? When a seedling is at an angle and baby leaves aren't open then it can either be slow stimulating or it struggling in some way which can be Pythium.. this is why I ALWAYS soak seeds in Hydrogen Peroxide and pure water over night till they sink (permeates) and then plant straight in soil and see their heads popping above surface within 3 days (buried half an inch deep!).. Did this seedling have a helmet still stuck to its leaves at all?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Nah didn't have a helmet at all... Came out sideways like that when it popped the soil 2 days ago. Stem does look purpleish
Is there alternative to peroxide I don't have any... if not can grab some tommorow if it's not to late..
Unfortunately only powdered based like cinnamon which kills Pythium but not as effective as peroxide.. try giving her more light or putting her in reach of the sun to get UV which kills Pythium also! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
She be standing straight now!!! Leaves opened a bit Think I babied the little girl back to health thx for all the help everyone
