Light Or Water Issues?

For one thing RH is way too low, I’m running 75%RH for veg, and these aren’t much out of seedling stage.

I'd start in a much smaller pot next time. I see many people do this, leads to a host of problems starting with inconsistent watering. Happy Growing

Please immediately raise that rh!

Your seedlings will not survive in 20%rh. I like using plastic sandwich baggies, or clear solo cups to make a dome. Works oerfect5

Cropkingseeds purple kush. Just added another 5000k cfl. Promix soil. Gen hydro nutes. Anyone out there willing to help me out with these symptomatic leaves here? Still a newbie grower. I have Durban poison growing flawlessly with same routine but this purple kush has me a little worried.

OK,all. I purchased 12 cropkingseed purple kush a year ago. Popped 12. 7 germinated. They were honest about the guarantee, I’ll give them that. I took 2 to flower parted with the rest.
Fought the strain all the way to the end, seriously fought it (I’m no newbie). In the end I was very disappointed that I could not bring the best out of her. But the advertisement drew me in, it’s an old school strain that I’m always looking for. I guess it was to good to be true. Well, I’m still looking for her if you get my drift.

As said u want RH on at least 60% early in veg, can u add a humidifier

Have used "final" pots for seedling so there would be no transplanting of; never no issues

ran this way for over 9 years,although not ideal its not the worst thing you can do to pot plants lol

plant dont look all that bad to me,some strains do have varigated leaves and others do have a bit of wrinkle to em.will grow faster /better with higher rh like 50-60%.just wanted to point out 20% aint the end of the world lol

I agree, never had a problem with low humidity. Mine is at 24% atm and chugging along fine. @GT21 runs low humidity also.

I've also ran that low of humidity with no issues, however plants are happiest with higher RH. You'll be able to see that yourself if you play with your humidity. Happy Growing

How close is your light? Temps aren’t crazy high but the leaf looks just a lil stressed.

I got you. So the kush they are a little picky on uptake of nutes when the humidity is not right. I found that warming up the air around the kush helps the plant transpire allowing better uptake. Also instead of soaking the plants soil every water in the winter you will adopt smaller feeds more often on the top root zone while keeping the bottom heavier than normal.

Hell yeah. Thanks for that insight. Makes sense for sure.

Just wondering how old are they. I to am growing cropkings purplekush. My rh and Temps are off do to a cold winter so progress is a little slow. Put a CFL right up close to her and she started to takeoff. Rh level still low, but going to push her through till I get some humidifier for next run. Never had slow such slow progress with other strains as seedlings as this one. Anyway hope all goes well.

At the time of the picture was one month old. I have since given up on her and planted my second purple kush seed today. Hopefully this one will turn out better. I too have had the same trouble with temp control. The tightest window I can get is 65-85 degrees.
