We're both havin issues this season :/
I germed all apart from the sr's. Decided to either save em or plant em somewhere else. Found out I had a 707 seed hidden away and germed that instead.
Here's hoping good luck to the both of us from now on.
I think if anything its just getting T5 growing right for seedlings distance,airflow if it does get hot etc I have enough germed to pick a top 3 and be happy but im disappointed some of the ones I really want look shit or had trouble germing...

I'm thinking 8 inchs will be a good distance

Im getting leaf curl on my youngest seedlings i can only think of overwatering
Or no air flow.I have had no problems with past seedlings but it was during winter and i do know i transplanted quickly when they started to the next size up so today i have put my fan on in the tent and im going to up pot 2 seedlings to see if that solves the problems.
Its weird ive been lucky enough to never have problems until now ....the seedlings started great but by the 2nd week some looked mutated.
I can say i did take them outside in my greenhouse last week for 5 days but then we were forecast heavy 5 day rains i brought them back in....maybe thats the main problem ? I dunno..im not pissed i just dont like failures....Screenshot_2016-09-20-12-40-38.pngScreenshot_2016-09-20-12-43-12.pngScreenshot_2016-09-20-12-41-47.png

maybe they are damping off maybe from too much water, but a combination of stressing a bit. I have had issues during this rainy season getting seedlings started even when I try to start them lately in straight fuken promix inside. I think the gremlins must be fucking with us all ;). I hear you on not being pissed, just hate failures. Same here, fuck it, sort it, get more going

Ive yanked up more lately @ruby fruit that started looking like shit and when I did pull them up they just hadnt taken off root wise, where as a high percentage anyway, took right to transplant or right to first planting.

Its easy to be impatient with seedlings. So delicate though

I found the brunnings soil easily compacts and is susceptible to over watering also.
yep I see that to..im throwing my next lot of seeds I normal soil mix just to mix it up a bit ...like I said plenty of time im not pissed one bit
I just done to nice looking 8 week old plants under the T5 ..its just these lot ive had a problem with

problem solved once I up potted these seedlings today I could tell just how waterlogged they were...so yep after all these years I fucked up a batch of seedlings by to much watering...threw a couple out and kept what may be ok will know in a week wether they gonna improve or be thrown..meanwhile im dropping seeds left right and center as back up.
My impatience for an early start cost me some gd quality seeds....least im still 3 weeks in front of last season so I know ill be alright even if new seedlings are put in the ground the same day as last year (oct 8th)

I just had to cull my biggest seedling..showed some balls...must of been because i tried getting it going to early,

5 seedlings left (4 very small). Ill have to put a few more down this week.

More rain expected......and still getting cold nights with a small frost risk..
