The 2 that made it are doing great. Same with the 6 alberts and the 6 lvtk.. just those 3 ghosts that were a problem.. all had same medium and same amount of water sprayed... Ive been using the same technique for quite a while now.. cant even remember the last time one disnt go..Sounds like you are providing a healthy environment. Sorry to hear about the issues.
My only thoughts are the Chamomile might help the already growing ones, and before planting, once I started soaking the seeds in some hydrogen peroxide before planting, the damping off issues in my tents have literally disappeared.
Its like when there is a flu break out and it most people are fine, but kills the young and elderly with compromised immune systems. The disease grabs onto and kills the vulnerable ones.The 2 that made it are doing great.

How much hydrogen peroxide are u mixing with how much water?
Thats the beauty of coco. It holds a good amount of air no matter how much it gets watered. Doesnt let anaerobic bacteria to take foot. LOL ask @CAPT CHESAPEAKE I converted him to watering coco daily from seedlings and hes a believer. It seems counter intuitive but thats why I dont mess with other growing media for now.Dampening off is grower error. The two hurkle I had that died on me were my fault. I thought at first it was old seeds but the other two are doing great now so I jyst had them too moist. Same with many other growers it sounds, lol
why I learned the hardway that most plants won't mind your pro mix being a lil dry much more than being a lil too wet. Once you play a lil with promix, its not coco, but you can use it almost like a hydro medium. I love coco, but I can afford promix, lol. Thats why I don't do the soak till runoff on feeding with promix, i basically give em two to three cups of juice, see how much they eat in a day and go from there. If they are super dry, etc, I'll feed a cup more next feeding. When diff strains, some eat more than others, etc, but they all get fed the same thing, maybe different appetites. Truth is, whenI plant a seedling in promix once I got it goin in the plug, first week or so I use a shot glass and just water the center of container where seedling is ,until it takes off. Usually a lite clonex watermix, but only the shot glass and Im gettin seeds up better than I used too. Once they take off a bit, I got to regular feeding, etc. jme. But I'd use coco or even hydroton if I had to, cut my teeth on rockwool and hydroton in the beginning, but alas, promix is more to my budget.Thats the beauty of coco.

Promix is peat based, I believe. Go with coco/perliteThat is promix.. Very proven medium.
Its in a tent with 600w of cobs..
And its not wet at all.. just damp..
I germed up 24 beans on the same day and the only loss was the 3 ghosts.. This isnt my first rodeo bud.
Repotting might help. Look big for solos.My word these Arcata Ghosts are just retardedly picky. I mean almost to the point to where they are about to get the black bag treatment. They both have mg def. So I'm guessing bc I havent phed water or a feed in several months. The ph is way off. Bc they are getting both cal and mg. And they arent up taking it bc of ph being off. The one cali mago mass is doing it too. I dont even have a ph pen anymore.
Look at these bitches. The one C.M.M. is really bad.

I grow em in solos for months. These dont even have roots coming out of the bottom of the cups yet. I'm pretty sure ph is off. And they arent up taking any of the calmag. So they got Mag def pretty bad. Ph is prob a whole point out.Repotting might help. Look big for solos.
I'm in coco but I've noticed some plants like watering everyday as seedlings some don't. Did nothing different with Hurkle and lemon crashes and was watering daily till run off. Lemons did well but then got sad, I had to let them dry out for a couple days and then do every other day waterings.Thats the beauty of coco.

What is the best PH range for calcium and magnesium uptake?I grow em in solos for months. These dont even have roots coming out of the bottom of the cups yet. I'm pretty sure ph is off. And they arent up taking any of the calmag. So they got Mag def pretty bad. Ph is prob a whole point out.
6.15-6.25 for soil.What is the best PH range for calcium and magnesium uptake?
Cal mag are a little higher on the scale I believe, at 6.2 - 6.5 range.What is the best PH range for calcium and magnesium uptake?
I have been mixing 5.9- 6.0 usually. I run in coco and perlite. Maybe i should bump my PH up a little.Cal mag are a little higher on the scale I believe, at 6.2 - 6.5 range.
I typically mix to 5.8 range but it usually drifts upwards a little to the higher range. If you're having cal mag issues then maybe letting it start a little higher will help.I have been mixing 5.9- 6.0 usually. I run in coco and perlite. Maybe i should bump my PH up a little.
