Will this plant survive?

[jwik]

Hi Everyone,
First grow and having some problems. Plant grew from seed and everything looked normal and going well. Then the plant started stretching, which I attributed from being too far from the light source. (Single 20w CFL light). For some reason I decided to lightly mist the plant. The result? It fell over like it was shot. I then read somewhere on this forum that the way to correct this was to bury the plant up to the leaves. I did this but the plant has hardly grown since. I have attached a photo or two to see if anything can be done to get this plant back on track.

That's what I was thinking. But then again you never know, Thanks for the advice.

There's a chance, but that soil doesn't look good.

What do you think is wrong with the soil?

 

[kovidkough]

how old

 

[jwik]

It's coco. I only opened the bag a month ago.

 

[kovidkough]

no how old is your seedling

 

[kovidkough]

what ph are you feeding and how much food?

 

[kovidkough]

you need to feed coco from the start or at least charge it, seedlings can handle 200-300 ppm

 

[jwik]

Sorry, misunderstood. The plant is about a month old. I have fed no food/nutrients only pH 6.2 water.

 

[kovidkough]

do you use calmag? if not your medium is causing lockout

 

[kovidkough]

at 30 days it should be much larger, get some perlite and start over, possibly in soil

 

[jwik]

I was under the impression that young seedlings didn't require any nutrients for about 3 - 4 weeks.

 

[kovidkough]

that's if you supply nutrients via the medium, coco is void of all nutrition

 

[kovidkough]

get a bag of all purpose soil, ditch the coco it requires alot more effort

 

[jwik]

No, I haven't used any cal/mag. I'm growing in a 80x80x160 tent by the way.

Is it even possible for a plant to look like a 3 or 4 day seedling at day 30? Not making much sense OP.

 

[jwik]

What sort of soil would you recommend? Is there any specific soil for growing cannabis?

 

[kovidkough]

fox farms ocean forest is a good start
