one of my seedlings which is 10 days old seems to be dying on me...the 1st two set of leaves are yellow and look all dried out. On the new set of leaves the tips of it are curled upwards and are pale green! cany anyone help!?!? what can i do to help the seedling out? im growing outdoors btw temps havent been too cold ive been watering every 2-3 days no nutes yet
some medium i bought from the thianges here in mexico and i stated that i ahvent added nutes yet, and ive been watering with a spray bottle...
dont spray the plant. depending on the strength of your light source, it will burn the leaves...this looks like what is happening. the sunlight could be too much for that strain so early especially so close to the equator. keep it in the house, in the window sill for the first few weeks. Very small container to start with, and water with 6.8 ph tap water. Unless you bought maricle grow, which it looks like that could be the issue also, nutes in with the soil you bought...check it and good luck!
lol @ some people just dont read the whole post and ask things i already stated...thanks joe do you think flushing it would help out with the soil if the soil may have nutes?
personally with a healthy growing seedling it will take like 4 days to get that big... unless you cannot get nemore seeds, kill it and plant another. Make sure there are no nutes in soil. if all you can get is topsoil or something cheap fine, amend it with perlite and 1 tbsp dolomite lime per gallon soil. i love this roots soiless mix. Flushing with alot of water will get nutes out, it only depends on the nutes they use. sometimes they use time released nutes, then you are screwed kinda. truthfully i have no idea what is really wrong with the plant...do you ph your water?? do you test the runoff ph?? this could just as easily be a ph problem. are you spraying the plant directly???? or spraying the soil around the plant??
i dont ph my water or anything its kind of like impossible to find any good gardening stuff here in mexico i cant even find any kind of ph tester around this place. um i was sparying em difrectly but then i stopped doing that and started spraying the soil around the around plant....if its the ph im kind of fucked cause i have no way of checking it
true if you have no way of getting a soil ph meter(could easily be ordered online for 12.99) you might as well give up on growing anything. But forget about that and remedy the things you CAN control. Do not spray directly on seedling. The sun uses the h2o to refract light, therefore magnifying its power. I am guessing that this is why your seedling looks burnt. and get some new soil. If you have the same results with new bean, new soil and only watering soil, not spraying plant, then you now know it is not b/c of the soil or the spraying the plants. At that point ph would be the only reasonable explanation for your issues. Shoot me a message or whatever if you need help.
but i highly recomend ordering a ph meter for soil. you can get one for $15 bucks online that tells you light intensity, soil wetness, and ph. Most likely the problem is ph and why waste time and money on the other stuff if ph 7 of 10 times is the problem.
alright ill hit you up...thanks for the help i appreciate it and ill just try and do the best i can with what i got thanks once again man
