Sprout is yellow and brown. Dying?!?!

  1. Hi,
    This is my first attempt to grow and everything was working great until my fourth day when the seed popped out of the ground. After the sprout showed about 24 hours later it turned brown and yellowish. It has not moved from this spot since! I am scared that it is dying and I don't know what to do. It is my 6th day now. Its just staying in that spot but everything below the brown tip looks perfectly green.

    Here are lots of pictures:

  3. You think if I plant it outside it will still survive?
    Or should I keep it on my window sill for a while and than when it gets stronger put it back in the grow room?

    How can I get its life back?

    Thanks!
     
  4. Looks like it's damping off on you (I only saw one or two pics, those things take an awful long time to load).

    I'm not sure what the Jobes is, but you don't need anything extra to sprout seeds, just stick them in dirt, water, and wait a few days. The constant watering may have also contributed to a case of drowning.

    This seed might make it but I doubt it. Wish I had better news, I'd give another try but don't mother it so much :)

    Good luck!
