I'm struggling with these plants. I've planted 4 different seeds (all different strains) and they are growing at a snails pace.
They are 3 weeks old and hardly growing. They are getting pale and I don't know what to do.
They are planted in seed raising mix. 3 days ago I flushed them with plenty of water. Added a bit of dolomite lime. Then I gave a weak feeding of seaweed fertilizer (14.0 / 1.4 / 9.0).
I've measured the tap water at around 6.8. The run off was slightly under, about 6.5. I haven't been overwatering or underwater either.
They are have been out in full sun. About 11.5 hours a day at the moment. Temp 18-28C (64-82F).
I put them under a 100w cfl last night but I reckon they looked even more yellow by morning.
The 4th seed was planted about a month ago. It had hardly been growing either. Different soil. I took it out the pot and removed a fair bit of soil and put it in the ground. It's not growing like crazy but at least it has greened up a bit.
Here's some pics...
