Is this just a bad batch of seeds?

[Deforced]

Hi, is this just a bad batch of seeds, done the same strain under the same light, same tent, same coco. Some are looking good and so many are really yellow since sprouted, ready to throw them out and start over with the yellow coloured seedlings. Thanks

I agree. Toss the weak ones. Mother the strongest.

Cheers pal I will do just that

Disclaimer: I know nothing about growing in coco or growing autos.

You don't seem to be watering those properly. None of the media should be dry when you finish watering. Dry media is wasted media — roots grow toward water, they will never grow into dry soil/media.

Heres the dude you wanna ask about coco. When he replies, take his knowledge and use it all. Dont skip any of what he mentions and you will do much better.

I did what you said and added a layer of sheet to shade the plants a little from the light but now I'm beginning to think it's definitely a bad batch of seeds.

Have you been feeding nutrients? They look hungry possibly.. Did you buffer the coco? what brand? if they are all the same strain def got some weaker ones like Ponky said if they are diff strains some might need more attention than the others. Whats the temps? how often are you watering?

 

[2Bad]

Looking at your last post it looks like you let them dryback fully.... That's a no no

 

[BirdLaw86]

The coco drying up is more likely the issue bro. I dont do coco but i do know from being told that it should NEVER go dry. Neverrrr. This is most likely your problem.

I mean might be able to fix it by flushing but im not sure plus its a seedling . what happened with the dryback was once it dried the EC spiked from the coco . If you're not feeding it I would def start with 1/4 dose nutes

 

[BirdLaw86]

What did ya mean by EC?

What did ya mean by EC?

EC= PPM just a different measurement.

 

[Moshmen]

EC= PPM just a different measurement.

Good info here but be careful with that statement - not exactly the same but one can be converted to the other ppm = parts per million , EC= electrical conductivity

Right guys, basically I've been watering one a day like I always have done. I've never had a problem doing it this way before. It's in 60/40 coco clay pebbles gold label, also I'm not feeding at the moment. I usually wait until around the 3rd node until I introduce nutrients, I am adding root stim at half strength. What you are seeing from the last post I made is just the top fine layer dry, underneath that it is not dry at all its really moist. I was thinking of tossing the bad ones and buying another pack of 5. Thanks guys

It may work for you but goes against most basic rules for coco

So would you say introduce nutes straight away at a reduced dosage?

I don’t grow in coco either , but I know a little - coco should never dry back, do a quick search on how to water coco - right here on the farm and you will find what ya need to know

I'm using a viparspectra 600w on the daytime mode, it's 25inch from canopy. I couldn't rise it anymore but I put a plant sheet across to reduce the light output because I too thought it was the light, no improvement though. I'm on 24hr light which I've always done. Thanks
