I got a new grow light and idk if it's doing good for my plants. Or is it to bright and to close? Cause I can change the brightness of them. It seems like there might be to much red light and not enough blue?
Any recommendations? Why are the stems doing this alot of them are like that. The only thing I'm lacking rn that I know of is maybe a little bit of humidity.

If you can turn off pink lights and just run the blue then try that.

They don't have that it's red and blue and then red blue and white then just white. Should I just get a different light. Blue only?

They are dying day by day. It has to be the humidity. I gotta get something to fix that but they are so small and not growing idk why. My other one was good. These all happened within 2 days. Some look to be doing great. Do you know why some aren't if it's the same climate for them all? First pics are dying and the last are the good ones.

Not enough light and the light source is to far away from the seedlings. Thats why they are stretching, falling over and breaking themselves. There trying to grow to the light and killing themselves to do it. Please understand,,, those lights are not grow lights at any level. They are cheap lights best used as accent lighting in night clubs and stealth lighting on sex spec cars, trucks, motorcycles and lawn mowers. This is there best use scenario regardless of color. Your going to have trouble every day with those lights, day by day by day.

First, fill the pot with soil to support the stem. Second put that led about 6 inches above the plant. Third, close the door and go away for the weekend.

Just leave the light on for 2 days? Don't they need darkness at least a little?

Don’t need darkness, some people run 24 hour light all the way til flip. Humidity should be over 60% for seedlings. For extra light use any led bulb or flourescent tube.

I did the light thing and honestly idk if its me or the plants now cause they are slowly dying each day one by one. I did what you said left em alone syill havent messed with em really and went to check on em this morning and 2 more were dead. Its like the leaves are shivering up and then the stem is just collapsing

Top and bottom are finished. I’d put a glass or clear cup over the middle pic to build humidity. That bottom one snapped the stem.

Do we know what's causing this? Is it humidity issues?
Yes we know what's causing it. Wrong spectrum of light, not enough light to far away from the seedling. That's why your getting the wild stretch and the plants are falling over and killing themselves. Turn the light dimmer down, lower the light. Cut the bottom off a clear water bottle and put it over the seedling and only give it a oz. or two of water every other day or so. What soil are you using? we don't know if you need to feed or not. What are your grow room temps and RH? What PH is your water? Do you have air movement? What enclosure?
