Sometimes if the seeds are old or haven't been kept in ideal conditions they can be really slow. Sometimes even if the seeds are fresh but planting conditions arnt ideal, or they've been shocked by something they can take some time, eg like being in bad soil or overwatering or feeding locking them outWhat's the longest you guys have seen seedlings stay at/in the cotlydon stage?
Asking for a friend
I had a seedling once were the kitten had bitten every thing above the cotlydon off. Did nothing for about a month, then suddenly managed to put out a tinny shoot. Took about six weeks to put out the next couple of nodes. Once it got going it was fine.

Long time ago I had one seed that sprouted coteleydons then never progressed any further, I left it 6 weeks sitting in the corner before deciding it wasn't going to happen.
Now I've another its 2 weeks old now, the coteleydons only just broke the surface and haven't moved since, I'm not hopeful lol.
And 2 I'm not sure about?

If there important plants then id just wait and see. As long as they are alive and look healthy sooner or later they will pull through. But if you have more of the same kind and dont mind losing them so much then id ditch them. Sometimes with tiny young seeds the green algae growth can affect growth. Might be a idea to make some covers out laminated card or something.

Popped in tonight to empty my runoff tray so grabbed a couple of pics.
Noticed a few spots on a few leaves the other day.
looking Like an issue with Ca.
So I’ve reduced feeding EC to 0.9 and dropped pH to 5.7 and last top up of the res I didn’t add any MKP.
Not worried in the slightest though as she’s very very healthy other than an odd leaf, I don’t stress too much over that but I do make course corrections.

No they're not vitaly important as such but they are precious as I'm looking/hoping/praying for a good mother plant to clone from.
Normally I'd have lids on my pots but not seedlings they're too fragile for me to be messing around with lids lol
A bit rake around makes it look a bit better algae is very unsightly.
Eta... On Saturday i changed from 4x T5s to a mars sp150 the seedlings are loving it and I've bonus 1.5c

i done the same to some extent, the netting was removed a few wks after flipping in to flower, they wasnt going further up and it was pain to water with net still had multiple tops but knew the height of them wouldnt be an issue, some ok buds lower down also i might just take the biggest colas off and leave the rest maybe another week.

Did you go with dry ice ?1st attempt using bubble bags.
196g of dross made this.

29.6g of hash that's a fair trade

I only done about 20% just to get a feel for it.
Next time I can save myself a few steps from what I learned with the tester.

I didn't bud as I wasn't sure how much I'd need and I didn't £40 spare tbh.
Dry ice is probably the best way but I didn't mind the little effort with ice water... I put everything into a bucket put the lid on and shaked/sloshed it about for a bit.

It's always good to get something useful that would otherwise go in the bin and learning something new on any subject is always interesting.
I've still got some to harvest from the 1st try and I'll shake it again yet.
