Hi everybody!
I started growing 2 months ago without any success. I am determined and persistent and I want to learn. My problem is that I cannot get the plant through seedling phase. This is my 4th trying and I am still stuck at the first set of leaves I have never been able to grow it to the point of having more than 2 leaves. I've been looking through all forum threads but I didn't find any specific solution to my problem. So I have a seedling now that is about a week old. It only developed the first set of leaves where I always stuck and it seems it stopped growing again. I have seen pictures and videos a week old seedling should have many more leaves than only the first two. I have a little growbox only 1,5 foot tall. I use 2 26W CFLs and my temperature is around 64.4-71.6.F or 18-22 C. I have a feeling that my humidity is responsible that is 40%. The last day the I misted a lot tried to keep it over 60% but I haven't noticed any change. Could low humidity be the problem? I will attach some pictures of her.
ps (yes she is stretched a bit the first day but I solved it immediately, the leaves curled down a bit why?)
Thank you for your help.
