    I'm thinking I might have overwatered them, but I'm kinda curious since one seedling isn't yellow at all. They look pretty dark green though, which is why I'm thinking overwatering. I attached pictures of both to show the difference between the two of them.

  2. Sorry for the double post, but I forgot to mention I'm on a 20/4 schedule now because I read it's good for root growth, but should I drop it down to 18/6?
     
  3. Hey dude. I'm on a 24/0 schedule and my growth is just outstandingly fast. I was on 18/6 but it was too slow for me

    I'd say go for the photoschedule change. drop into 18/6 and see what happens. also no water for a few days, if im not mistaken, the really puffy leaves can indicate over watering.
     
  5. I've left it at 20/4 and got a minor burn, so I moved the lights up and everything seems ok now. I started watering a lot less too and they seem to be looking a lot better. I'm keeping track of everything (http://forum.grasscity.com/micro-grows/1341733-mgs-first-ever-pc-micro-grow.html) if you wanna check it out.
