Hi everyone,

I have couple easy ryders on the go at the moment in a micro grow. Issue I have is I woke this morning and the bottom leaves have just sort of flopped a bit. Checked on them now and the second leaves starting to droop a bit. I thought it was under water so added the tiniest dribble this morning with tap water that been left out for 48hrs. Im starting to believe some how possibly its over watering? I need confirmation eithier way or any other suggestions. Here is a picture. Sorry the quality not good tell Apple to put a better camera on the iPhone

Ok i am highly not qualified to be giving advice but i will have a go. From what 'I' know your temps are good, humidity is a little low but i think thats pretty meaningless at present. Considering they are seedlings i do see a lot of them covered in a dome like contraption to conserve moisture and help them grow. Your medium looks likes straight soil. I have heard this is tough to make work as a beginner. Otherwise the only other problem is light but its only a baby. I didnt have mine under any lights, just on the kitchen table, and they looked very healthy but grew fairly lanky. Keep that light on it until a bit bigger. If someone says different to me them take their advice. Otherwise good luck.

If the vain's on the leaves start to fade and start to go yellow either to hot not enough fresh air or if that. Not the problem they look healthy just see what happens over the next 2 days don't water them everyday let the roots find. The food only water when 2"of. Soil is dry

My suggestion is to be more patient. Expecting a reply in 90 seconds is stupid, this isn't a support hotline. My second suggestion is to do some actual research. It would take you about 15 seconds on google (or a functioning brain) to figure out that epsom salt is not the same as table salt.

Fairly small probably about 6 by 5. Its in a PC case so cant get any bigger. I know they should still grow in that size pot. I just lowered my plants and going to see how they go. Any suggestions where to get a cheap PH Tester in the UK? Im on a budget.

Right you are using a Bio organic soil right always use distilled water with Bio mix don't water. Them until the soil is 2" dry Bio mix is designed to release nutes as and when they need it I don't feed my plants untilled I have at least 6 fan leaves don't water them Bio mixcan hold water 8 times its weight. So don't panic about watering them will be fine for 3days all your doing with the water helping the roots find the food from the soil keep the soil moist not wet
See if that helps you
