so i'm on my first plant, it's about 2 inches tall now. the 2 round leaves at the bottom are startin to dry up, is that a bad thing? i feel that i have to be misting the leaves to keep them from drying up. i'm using a 26 watt CFL inside a computer case growbox. i've got a digi-thermometer and it stays in the 80's. and the humuditiy stays in the 30's and 40's. i've got 2 computer fans running inside also.

Same Thing Happened To Me But My Soil Was The Problem. I Used Mg Moister Control. I Was Over Feeding Them. I Just Flushed Them 3 Times. You Might Want To Keep The Temp In The 70's Also. Hope This Helps

Upchuck- the round leaves are called cotlydons[sp] they will automaticlly die...and there ai`nt nothing anybody can do to stop it.
It is supposed to happen, the plant only needs them until you feed it, they store the seedlings food, when they die it`s time to start ferting...lightly.
Hope this helps and have a good day.
