So this sprout is 5 days topside, in a micro grow setup with black gold/perlite and cfls. It is one of three and the only one with the problem.
Days 1-4 I had 1 27w daylight cfl and 1 23 w softlight cfl. 18/6 veg.
Today I added another daylight 23w.
Noticed the burnt tips day 3 or 4 don't remember. But I read that if I can hold my hand under the lights for a long time without being uncofortable then that would be a safe height for the sprout. So I don't think the browning is from the lights.
Have only been misting with an atomizer (bottled water) since planting of seeds in moist soil. Yesterday I gave them each about 25-30ml of water in their 14oz cups. No nutrients yet.
They have been consistently 2 inches frm the lights. The temp fluctuates between 77 and 84 F.
Doesn't seem to be spreading, any advice?
Thanks!
