sorry for the post twice i realized this shouldnt be in the newbie forum.

Got these seeds from nirvana- its bubblelicious strain. Out of the 5 seeds only 1 made it and I have this other one which doesnt seem to die completely but doesnt look healthy either.

The plant was shriveling up in the soil so i removed it and stuck the roots in some water overnight. The roots look good on the plant but the leaves still shriveled.

Heres a pic, any suggestions appreciated.

I am using MGRO moisture control, pH is 6.4, I use a meter to determine if it needs water, so its not being under or over watered.

was planted on 7/8

man, i think in the first place you shouldnt touched that plant, cas it really weak in the seedling stage and now you shocked it even more-plant it in a good soil and hope it will survive.

man i think its time to order more seeds.

you shouldnt touch or mess around with fragile seedlings.

what are you using for light? this could be your first problem. can you post your lights/wat/how many and a pic of your set up?

how did the other 5 die?

in another post you mentioned you used plenty of nutrients? hold off on these until your plant is at least 2-4 weeks. i dont even like to use chemical nutes. this is probably why all of your plants died. its better to keep it simple in the beginig; a seedling only needs light and water when the soil is dried out. remember it is a weed

if you young sedling has feel down, then take a toothpick or something like that and tie it up.maybe you were over watering and the roots didint get much oxigen??

yeah maybe, thanks for all the suggestions. well what is weird is this...i ordered 5 seeds from nirvana and all but 1 diedbut I find random seeds in my herb sometimes and all of those seeds (4) grew and are about 3 inches tall.. I think i just may have tended to the other seeds to often.

so no Nutes until 2 weeks after seedling has grown? and how often should I use nutes if I am using MGRO? ( i know mgro isnt the best but all my plants are in them and they seem ok besides this one seedling.

thanks

any suggestions thanks...

exactly MrFishy said-wait untill the first month has passed and then gradually increase your nutes dosage.

1/4 strength as suggested on the bottle at first, after about 2-4 weeks from breaking the soil.

but id rather mix a little compost and guano into the soil after i transplant at 2 weeks than mess around with chemicals
