Black Gold Seedling Mix? Or fortified potting soil? Huge difference in what you should do. If the seedling mix there's absolutely no food. And clones? Ya gotta feed them. If it's fortified tell us.
 
Oh man!! Its my first time growing in doors. So far I have just been giving them ph water for the last 3 days.
I am using a Mars Hydro 600 I have 3 fans in the tent.
temp is at 77 degrees and Humidity is at 45

Soil is black gold

Has fertilizer in it. Let's assume they're burnt. Keep going. Or transplant into Pro Mix or Sunshine 4. That's what I would do at this point.
 
Ok sounds good. I do have Fox Farm Ocean Forrest arriving soon. Sucks my package was delayed a few days and no hydroponics
shops near me. Hopefully they will adjust for the time being. thanks

When I've grown in soil I don't bother with PH I l assume that the soil buffers for me. I also have pretty good tap water. I'd also up the temp, seems that plants grown under LED light like temps in the high 70's to mid 80's. Never used that soil before so don't know how nutrient rich it maybe. Personally I use FFOF and then add Dr. Earth Veg formula (green bag). How close do you have the lights?

You say- gave them ph water last 3 days. What does this mean? Did you water them everyday? If so, stop that. Learn to let the soil dry out, its easy to do now when they are small. Need wet/dry cycles. Feed or water when dry (but not wilting).

Looks like a 2x2 tent, put your light at the top if it isnt already.

Temp is ok, humidity could be higher. Something like 80F/64% is where you want to be in veg with LED, we can run higher leaf temps since less IR.

That soil has almost no food in it, and considering the amount of water that likely has been put through it already, its probably almost out of food.

What do you plan to use for nutrients? They can stay in those small cups for another week or so before they can be transplanted.
 
I mean I checked the water and made sure it was a oh level of 6.3. Yes it’s a 2x2 I have the light at the top of the tent. I think I definitely over watered. So ima stop that for now. As for nutrients I just have the fox farm grow big for now

I really like FFOF soil but sure wish they would come out with a granular nutrient line. Shipping water is DUMB!

Did you ever figure this out? Mine look very similar to this and I've been trying to figure out this problem for a long time now it's so frustrating.
