Hey all. Thanks for looking.
I truly appreciate the insight, wisdom and help of others along my grow journey.
I had a 3 gallon planter pot outside and this seedling popped up in there on the 22nd of June.
This would have been nearing 3 months after this seed didn't initially germinate.
Also, this seed was not intentionally planted in this 3 gallon pot. A true mystery how it got there.
I was attempting to germinate Kumaoni and Nepalese mountain ganja seeds in a nearby tray at the time. It's unlikely a stray seed from my f2 project.
Likely, after the aforementioned seeds did not germinate, I reused the soil from the seed tray when I transplanted my Michigan Lilies to this 3 gallon pot the unid seedling appeared in.
It's hard to say which variety this is, but looks much like the kumaoni seedling I had growing for about a month before it yellowed and died.
It's quite possible, long story short, that a Kumoani seed that did not germinate accidentally got in this pot.
Anyway, along my journey I'm learning to identify issues but not always the cause.
My second grow, in progress, is in flowering now. So, I kinda got the swing of growing and the required conditions.
These pictures and post are a preemptive strike. I took multiples of the same seedling to show lighting and visual perception differences.
The new leaves are definitely lighter, which is okay.
But the new leaves seem more on the yellow side, especially towards the center.
My other plants grew fine in this 2x2 with same conditions. I understand that each strain or variety varies in its requirements.
initial seedling sprouted in 3 gallon pot outdoors, transplanted to a 1 gallon pot with "generic" cheaper brand potting soil, nothing added beyond what is in the gardener expert potting soil.
I'm not suspecting nutrient burn or other issues as far as overfeeding or anything.
my 2x2 grow tent temps are mid 70s and rH is averaging mid to lower 60s %.
My lighting (Fecida 65 watt) is about 3 feet above the seedling top and set at about 25% (plant is not leggy or stretching)
water pH is right at 6.5
good air circulation in the tent.
No bug infestations I can see topside or flying around the tent.
Letting dry on surface before adding small amount of water to moisten the surface at this stage.
I've not overwatered, as far as I can tell, the plant seems healthy (minus that leaf imperfection) except it seems the center part of the new leaf growth is appearing lighter towards yellowing.
Obviously, I'm going to give it time. But for me, yellowing this early in growth, has more often been a bad sign and ended up with the seedling not making it over time.
I'm concerned because the last known Kumaoni seedling I had grew about two months and died unexpectedly after yellowing similarly.
I may be overly concerned at this stage as plants can come around.
Thanks for any insight, comments or suggestions.
