Curious if this is an easy call or not. New growth seems normal I believe. Just curious what the problem might have been so I can learn from it. Cheers!

Little plants are kinda a tuff call,could be anything from over water too much light/heat lack of Mg.Let me guess ,is it FF soil?

Seems like the either cal mag or the very beginning stage of N deficiency. I’m in a coco/promix hp mix...
 
Plant still has turgidity/osmotic pressure so ur not over watering. I wouldn't worry as long as new growth looks fine.

When I had the domes on them this past week I was dead center on the VPN chart for seedlings. But with the domes off I’m at like 45% now with them off which blows ha but whatever. Thanks I was just curious because after this grow I wanna try some nicer seeds and would like to avoid early issues with the autos.

Ive never ever cared about the first set of leaves. If i showed you mine youd call me crazy...all warped, bug eaten, discolored...they arent meant to last, imo
 
There’s nothing wrong with the plant pictured just a little stress it will be just fine. Get yourself a moisture meter just a cheap one is fine. Until you get the feel of pot weight it will be your best friend
Good luck
 
Well then, coco peat mix.Making it harder for yourself I see. She'll need food .
This is what was already in the medium

- 40% Coco Coir + Perlite

- 30% Peat + Perlite

- 20% Earth Worm Castings

- 10% Grow Stones (Bottom of pot)

- Down to Earth 444 - 2tbsp per gallon (2cups)

- Down to Earth Insect Frass - 1tbsp per gallon (1cup)

- Down to Earth Dolomite Lime - 1tbsp per gallon (1cup)

- Mykos Mycorrhiza - 2tbsp per gallon (2cups)

- Humic Acid - A bunch...

1tbsp per gallon (1cup)? im guessing you mixed 16 gallons of this? not really sure what it means
should be using 3 cups of your mix (frass 444 etc) per 7.5 gallons of soil.
Or is this store bought?
 
Well for starters, Wedding Cake is a clone only strain, and you appear to have a plant from seed. That's the first issue I identified by looking at the pic.

Was for 18 gallons. I went with a lighter dose to start. Six, 3gal pots

So 2 cu/ft = 2 cups lime.6 cups food aka frass 444 kelp etc. 8 cups rock dust. then ewc, soil, perlte let cook min 3 weeks.
So your short 3 cups of food and 1 cup lime.

Yes but I don’t see that giving me an N deficiency. Unless the food just isn’t available to the plants yet. It “slightly” cooked for 8 days in a tote. Checked to make sure it was dampish/wet daily. But wasn’t really trying to cook it per say. Just waiting till time to plant lol. I dunno I’m mixing too many methods of growing and losing track. Went too crazy with it. Just need to power through this one and take it easier on the next grow lmao

I let my soil sit/cook for 2 months and its pretty strong.So mix some more and it will be ready next grow ,add the rock dust it will last years. Then every grow you just amended 1/4 of npk and off yea go.Soil will rock after a few grows.I started September last year have 80 gallons in different stages.40 to grow 40 that sits and rotate.

You guys think I should keep going w the calmag every watering or every other watering? 3-5ml / gal I assume?

Honestly looks like hot soil too soon. If fine as it will get to. Follow advice.

And a tip. Cut starter mixes with an inert to start. Gain a weeks growth and vigor at least.
