I've tried watering every other day at least 1liter and just switched to 100% light. I have given 4days50% 6days 75% and last 4 days at 100% lightLooks like it wants more light. You're getting quite a bit of etoliation there.
How often are you watering? Overwatering is the most common noob mistake and can cause seedlings to be very ornery.
Thanks for the boost of confidenceYou're seedlings are just stretching out their stems, no need to be alarmed @DeRon1! Just keep em from sitting on the moist coco. Seedling stage can take a good while if germination conditions were less than ideal, but at 14 days you're seeds are looking just fine. I'd start giving them a 50% strength dose of nutrients pretty soon soon here, don't forget Cal/Mag since you're in coco (if you haven't amended with lime or epsoms) Since the seedlings are still small for the amount of coco, you won't have to saturate all of the soil. I try to water away from the stem and usually around a radius kinda halfway from the pots edge. Good luck man, you're doing just fine thus far!

thanks I guess I should have gotten started in late March or April to make that date! Guess I'll be buying more meds.....GRRRRRR:mad: my dumb ass mistake:bawling:Those are flowering times and do not include veg period.
Roger That and I guess the Noob over anxiousness is upon me. I feel I have do something and I'm creating my own holeStop watering it unless your medium is dry at least 3 inches down.
Too much watering + too little light = poor root growth + lots of stem growth = weak droopy seedling.

I will have to find another hobby quick because I have visions of strawberry blue and cough dancing in my head and I swear I can taste them as I gaze upon those lil darlings ;);):happy::happy:Resist the urge to love your plants to death dude. They just grow out of the dirt like that. They'll tell you if they need something.

:oops:yeah i did start up in 3-5 gal pots but next run i'm gonna be more prepared in fact I will be trying the perpetual thingy just as soon as I can get this t5 setup in. But the wifee is screaming budget for now...However I will start in smaller pots and transplant up to what pots sizes I have now! I just have to get out of the house more so I leave them be!Yes! with a pot that size you don't need to water/feed that frequently (probably like once every 3-4days) until it starts to fill up the pot and build a good root system
yes 18/6I feel ya man. It's definitely beneficial to start in smaller pots or even little plastic party cups and work your way up to the 1g, then 2-3, then finally into 5g or whatever final pot size you'd want to use. They should be fine just ease up on watering em for a while until they show vigor- then slowly start a feeding regiment. Coco is pretty forgiving as far as dampness but still watch out for root rot and dampening off at the stem. Are you running 18/6 in your veg?
Yeah she smokes like a broke stove and this is our opportunity to not only have meds for me and rec smoking for her, but also to get a small return out of good yielding runs! I figured out of 9-10 ladies i should have a decent enough yield to satisfy all the above! I was hoping to get at least 4 decent runs with same #'s b4 xmas and by then I should have it down! but i was misunderstanding the time it takes so it may happen or may not! I however won't give in because I love my meds, (oils,shatter,hash,and plain ole good bud)...If the wifey smokes pot, explain to her that there's nothing better for the budget than growing your own and turning a big yield.
