image.jpg I'm new to growing and I'm learning a lot about plants, I've found out I ready have a triploid/polyploid growing I believe. But another seedling I have is looking freeky.
Here it is, Feminized Hammer shark resin seedling. I just think the leafs look freaky, it's cool though

Could be genetic. Are you able to test PH? If youre using a seed starting soilless mix it may be a little to acidic because seed starting mixes are mostly peatmoss which tends to have a ph of around 4.5. When in doubt check PH first

Well I'm actually using 100% organic Canadian peat moss with perlite and zho inoculant root additive . I plan to use these combination throughout all my plants life because that's the best I can use now. Things seem to be doing fine I just never seen the seedling look like that. I don't use any fertz or any other additives. And no I'm not able to test ph, I'm just letting the outdoor nature do it's thing

Sorry "Neb" your little babe looks 'normal' but I would have added a lot more perlite, she does have early nute burn, although the seed leaves(cotyledons) are fading(normal) so are the main and young leaves coming thru, you can save her by flushing well, then after a week of so pot up to a larger light proof pot with 30-50% perlite, avoid that heavy mossy soil, its holding way too much water and nute.

good luck

Thank you, thank you. I'll transplant as soon as possible to a bigger pot and make sure I have more perlite, the soil is actually really light, it seems to flush the water properly. I appreciate all the feedback, thank you guys

once again I appreciate it. I did a little experimenting and put her in a bigger container, she's improved on her color and growth now. Thanks for the advice, I wonder how she'll grow alone in this pot I don't plan on changing her again.

I'm thinking she's starting to do better View attachment 3139872
Ive had it happen a hundred times, how do you germ/sprout your seed's ? I use the paper towel method and see this form alot of indi dom. plant's where the first set of leaves have been a little damaged either in the shell or as the shell pull's off. With FAT indica fan's you see this more often, the next set and so on should be fine

Thanks for the reply but yeah I used paper towel method and this was a Indica i just wasn't sure because it's the first time I tried growing. This plants looking better though now it got damaged by the rain but for the most part I think it's fine
