  1. Is this still over watering or do i need to up the nutrients a bit more now as I'm over the one week mark.
    Leaves are curling under which guess is over watering?
    I have great dainage etc but maybe I'm just being too eager with the water.

  2. How much are you watering and how often?
    There doesn't seem to be a great deal of perlite in that cup either....
    You should not be feeding nutes for at least the 1st 3 weeks barring root stimulator
     
  3. There was quite a good deal when i bought thr pack. Should i caredully and add more?
    Watering once per day atm
     
  4. i would transplant her into a new container with 30% perlite - Just eye ball it
    How much have you been watering?
    You should only be watering a little circle around the seedling....Once a day may be too much depending on how much you are adding.....less is more.

  5. Ok I'll do that, ive been watering enough to get 20% runoff wster to check the pH
     
  6. It's really to soon to be watering so much AND feeding that lil girl (hopefully).

    In my short time on this board it seems that over watering is the main issue in all these 'WTF is wrong with my plant?' posts. I can see how wet the soil is in your pix. Do you really think it needs more?

    Not H8'n on anyone but a little common sense please.

  7. No, don't water until run off yet.... Gradually build it up as she grows!
    Just a little circle around the seedling - let the roots search for water
    You will kill it if you carry on like that
    In suggest a little research on watering techniques
    Also, there is enough food in the soil - DO Not feed yet.
    Good luck

  11. How often do you water?
     
  12. Just get a solo cup and and pour a little circle around the seedling ….
    NOT TIL TUN OFF :)
    Then do not water again until bone dry
     
  13. Ok i got it, thank you so much, I'll take this on board and with a little root nutrients added to the water yes? Also ik usijg distilled water is that ok?

  15. I wouldn't start the root stimulator until she is around 2 weeks old.
    Remember , less is more.
    I would use tap water left to sit out for 24 hours , then use :)
    Will have more trace elements than distilled water
    Take it easy

  20. That would definetly be your problem. It doesnt need watered daily. You could water like you have been just less often
