well my tap water comes out at pH 10. so yea your pH could be off, locking out some nutes. a pH pen can be one of the best investments you ever make.

Plant is still looking fine.
I took a pic of my little one and when I zoomed in it had loads of white dots on the leaves which I can only guess will be trich sites. I think ElephantRider noticed the same with his. Your plant has the same dots if you look closely. As it happens, Elephant Rider has a CH9 seed as do I and I've never seen that trait before, so maybe we can identify your bagseed as a CH9 offspring.
Then again I may be talking rubbish :)

Try to use the 6.5 water rather than the 7.5 as weed prefers it slightly acidic, but neither should cause any big problem. Just remember that tap water can change so it needs checking regularly and also when adding nutes you should check the value after everything has been added. Many nutes affect ph noticeably.

Looking good though BTK3ill are they the blueryders?
also check out the new pc gang group in my sig ;)

well that sound good for now. just try to get a pHpen youll be happy. also how hot is it in there? because i would move it closer to the lights. about 1 inch away.

yeah i moved it down b/c of the burn marks on the lower leaves i posted pics of it

well the burned lower leaves are not from it being close to the lights. the leaves would have to be touching the bulb to burn. you can move it closer. sorry but the blueryders look pretty much dead. you might be able to save #2. i hope you werent giving them nutes. if not then your pH must be way off.

Hey BTK3ill

The blues do all look a bit sorry for themselves but all the stems look pretty thick and healthy. I'd persevere with them all for now. To help #1 you could try to remove the seed case but this is a very delicate operation. I often need to do it with my seeds so it's a skill worth developing. I use a modeling knife blade. Hard to tell from the pics but maybe #3 is the same. Use the blade to separate the 2 closed leaves. There should be a split between the leaves just at the top of the stem. Insert the tip of the dull side of the blade and gently slide it forward while holding the stem. Once they can see some light they may recover.
The bagseed needs more light than the blues just now so maybe just move everything a few inches to the right if you can.

oh i didnt see #1 for some reason. it looks like #1 and 2 may have a chance. but #3 looks like there is no leaves. sorry if you said this but what soil are you using and do you have a way to measure temp? and i would move the bagseed up about an inch away from the lights like v12 said.

i actually had one sprout that looked like #2, the tips of the leaves were white. i just kept watering with pH ajusted water and it did fine.

Hey guys
Under the green leaf in #1 it looks like maybe one half of a seed husk is hanging on for dear life. Might be me though. My eyesight isn't as good as it used to be.
