I am having a problem growing in 2.5 weeks watering every day or 2 in 12 ounce cups well drained perlite/jiffy mix/organic mg potting mix. I am seeing severe clawing of plants while they are about 3 inches high on average in the third set of three leaves. They seem to fold down and inward. I have let the water sit out from the tap after severely running cold water from the tap. Water was around 75. Roots at 73 plant tops around 78. I have all these plants bunched in standard white styrofoam cups. Could the refelection be a problem? i haven't been overwatering them but still see drooping while they remain a solid green.I have wated them once with a very diluted amount of fish emulsion and then 3 days later with a MG standard diluted mix. About 2 ounces water fed every 2-3 days on average Please help!:-?

Much appreciated. I am planning on transplanting them soon as they are way beyond how many leaf sets are neccessary. I have heard about buring cow shit under soil deep enough to not burn the plants but to provide it heat. Has anyone heard of this method of growing or know what the restraints on the season in North Carolina are? (below 45 parallel)

You can grow killer buds in your climate.....try and get your seedlings healthy enough to enjoy the outdoor sun in all of it's bud enhancing glory.

Only water when your soil is very very dry....use extremely dilute blend of ferts....when you transplant it helps to use a very dilute solution of a blossom booster type fert.
But remember, more is less with chemical ferts.
