Well its actually my second grow, but the first time was years ago, and i had to threw them away when they were in veg.
it was white widdow.
Hope this time everything will be okay..

The two big seedling were hatched a week before i took the pic(which was yesterday).
Each one is a different strain. The tall one is LSD, and the other is SSH.
Are they over streched?

The other two small seedlings hatched couple of days ago. I planted them couple of days after planted the first two.

The light are as close as possible to the dome.
I read that in case that they are over streched i should put them in soil and cover some of the stem.
I was planing on putting them in pebbels, in GHE AQUAFARM. All of them.
Use them as mother plants to take clones..
The SSH look kinda burn on the leafs, is that normal?

So far i used plain tap water which i adjusted to around 5 PH.
I bought Bluelab Gurdian so next time i will use that to determine the exact ph, to have it at 5.6.
The last time i dipped the RW, i used RO water With tap water and added BioBIzz root juice, which i still have from my first grow - which was soil. but i read i can use that on all mediums so will use on hydro.

The dome makes it have high humidity and it stretches more. Slowly acclimate it to be used to no dome.

By the way that's not being burnt, that's part of the insides of the seed. It'll go away when it gets bigger.

Thanks for the help..
I had to remove them just now from the CFL light, and put them in my porch so they have some sun light.
Hopfully tommorw i will be able to return them to the CFL light and 18 hours of light.Hope that the sun light wont be to strong for them.
Will it be better if i wont put any light for now? just for a day? Until i could put them back to CFL?

Once the seedlings pop, you need to remove the dome. If running CFL's get them close to the plants.

The stuff on the tip of the leaves is like after birth from the seeds I remove it asap with tweezers it speeds things up~

I tried that, i removed easy the big piece..
And i tried too hard to remove the small one, and i removed a piece of the leaf :wall:

There is a chance it will recover, or should i just in case plant another seed of SSH ?
I have 3 more seeds of SSH.
Thats the strain i wanted to try out the most from all of the strains i have.

It should be fine, but just baby it a bit.

If you want to remove those in future a good trick is to soften them up first, spray water on them wait an hour spray more water wait, do this about 5-6 times, then try removing. If it doesn't come off easily don't force them.

sunlight is much stronger than any indoor lights available, as stated above you need to do what is called hardening off. think of it like a human who goes outside in the middle of summer and sits there for three hours without any sunscreen, they will get burnt. Plants have the same affect from the sun when they are any age if they have not been directly exposed to it since germination. That is why ferns and other soft plants need indirect sunlight, otherwise they will shrivel and die, cannabis can have the same consequences but a more mature plant will be able to handle it better than young seedlings.
