One of my seedling's stem has gone limp. What is wrong it with? It is falling over and I am just supporting it so it stays up. It is still alive though. I tried to water it but the stem is still limp.

I had this happen a few days ago on a sour diesel seedling the stem bent sideways and was really thin at the bottom all I did is gave it a good water, pack the dirt around the stem at the bottom, and put it about 2-3" away from 26w CFL and in two days it stood strait up and is starting to get out of shock and start growing again, it also got its darker green color back. I also have a fan on low to strengthen the stem alittle.

too much water, i have some seedlings in a small cup that are just coming up. i had misted the soil every day for about a week. now that they have came out, i will not water them for another 5-7 days. the water i had been misting onto the seed, to sprout it, collected into the middle and bottom of the cup, (1)and provides enough for the first week. at the begining of the (2)second week i will water again with quarter strength nutes. saturate the soil to make sure nutes are all in the soil. (3)water 3-5 days afterward with twice as much water as soil volume in pot, to flush it. during the third week, (4)fertilize with 3/4 strength or 100% strength nutes. (5)water 3-5 days afterwards with half as much water as soil volume in pot, not to flush it, some fertilizer will stay in the soil to provide for another week. repeat steps 4 and 5 how ever long you veg, make sure you finish 5 befor you flower.

LOL i love your pidgin type never laughed this hard in a while
ANYWAY
hawaiian red dirt has a low PH,
Red dirt all the way, just mix it with some compost/perlite/peat with about 50% red dirt. If adding peat id throw in lime too, or wood ashes or powdered egg shells. (brah can pound um like poi if no coffee grinder)
just some organic matter added to hawaii red dirt makes it a pretty good growing medium.

If you want your plant to live follow these instructions
1. go down to home deport/lowes get some seedling starting mix. Or just high quality potting soil.
2. remove seedling from current pot without disturbing root at all, this can be tricky if you aren't a gardener, but google has some good guides. You basically use a spade and dig out a "cone" 2 inch around the seedling, then pull the cone out, the entire root system should now be in this cone without being disturbed at all. if you cant do this then DONT.
3. place the seedling dirt clod in a bucket of water and let the red dirt seperate from the seedling leaving just the seedling and the tap root.
4. plant seedling in seedling starting mix, being very careful not to force the delicate roots into the dirt, make a hole first, put the roots in the hole, then cover the hole with dirt.
If you do all this without disturbing the tap root it should work.
