how old is it? is it a bad seed? what kind of soil? what are your temps? what kind of light are you using? These questions will help you get a better answer. also you should be in PLANT PROBLEMS not CFL.

She is about 2 weeks from planting. The soil is Miracle Gro 'Garden Soil" with peet moss, and 30% perlite. My temps are steady at 75, and I'm using CFLs, and thank you I will..

overwater? nutes? not enough light?
I only water about once every 6 to 8 days when soil is dry, and I haven't given any nutrients, and I have 26w CFLs 4 of them within inches of her. Like 2 inches..I've read on google that it could be my tap water and something about the ph but I let the water sit out for like 4 or 5 days b4 I use it...?????

Did the MG soil have a claim to feed plants for "X" amount of time?? And I'm a n00b 2 but it looks like your PH is a lil high (no pun intended)

I don't know for sure if leaving it out will fix the ph, but I know it will still have whatever the city puts in your water in it. Highly recommend a ph test kit and probably ph down. Not sure if that's your problem, but you will want to have those anyway

looks fine to me, just needing a little nitrogen. the plant is still young so i would wait a week and give it a light mixture of a balanced liquid fertilizer. it does look a little dry but you'll be watering soon. GL

Thank you, I'm so worried about her. She is my first attempt, and no nothing. I have a plant food for my roses will that work? It has a 8-7-6 for the NPK..(I know about roses..haha)

it will work. remember to give it a really light mixture to start with. as the plant grows you can increase the mixture. GL
