seedling is 5 days since germination, I have 3 seeds only the stretchiest one is clawing.

it was kept at 28-30c (82-85f) degrees at first but I've lowered it to 25-26c (77-80f), humidity is between 40 and 50
they have a fan blowing on them

they are in a root riot cube, given only phed water with zero nutes, and the light is a 26w CFL that is about two inches away. When it started to claw the light was a bit closer and I moved it away.

Since only the stretchiest one is doing this (maybe an inch taller than the other ones), what do you guys think, heat stress?

Is it a strain with blueberry in it's genetics by any chance? Had this happen with both blueberry gum by G13 and Killing fields by Sannies (which has true blueberry in it's genetics). Both without problems. Also had it happen with Vanilla kush and that freak didn't even flower.

Hmm. This is an issue that needs sorting then. Something that I'm not really skilled enough to help you with. I did read somewhere that it might be too much N, but you haven't added nutes. I'm sure someone on here will be able to offer precise advice, hopefully soon eh.

if its just the cotylon(sp?) leaves, the starter leaves that hold all the stored food, then i wouldnt worry. they do that.

picture would be nice.
I don't think anyone can up pics right now, something's up with the site. They're probably inserting all the tracking cookies and hidden trojan horse virii in the webpage so we will all be caught and thrown in jail, or at the very least hassled until we hang ourselves, but otherwise everything is going fine. Really. Why do you ask? Oh, you didn't ask, well I guess I am really going crazy..... hmmmm .....

the cotyledon is the round tiny leaves that come out of the seed right? I'm talking about the first 2 leaves

this is not mine, but I'm talking about the two leaves with the jaggies (up down) not the round leaves (left right)
my leaves are a tiny bit bigger than this after 5 days, but they are going downwards more and more
