I'm wondering about your media, too. Coco and perlite? Did you buffer the coco? Wash out the dust and smalls? People say you can't overwater coco, but if you leave the little stuff in, it can get pretty soggy. If you don't buffer, coco will steal magnesium from you.

The performance bag I tried first. Now I'm using the seed mix. And the fox farm I use when I repot the seedling. Other than that I don't really know about thecoco stuff.

Hey guys, I'm back with a new seedling. It acts like it's going to stop growing again. (7 times now).I put it on light on the 17th. It gets this far and then slows down or stops growing. What am I doing wrong?

What's your temps, humidity, and light distance right now? Also, what soil is in the cups now?

Tried different media, tried different light intensity, tried higher and lower humidity but still having the same problem over and over. My guess is the PH of your water source being to high or two low. Are you ph'ing your water? Do you know what the pH is of your water source?

Bottom line something in your setup is off if your having the same issue over and over again, you tried different soils( so can most likely rule that out) you have tried different light intensity (so same can probably rule that out) you tried different humidity ( again can probably rule that out) not giving nutes so what's left? Water source and pH of this water source. This would be the next thing I would check.

Agreed, barring some weirdo substance in their environment or equipment that's killing them.

What is the media? How often are you watering? What water are you using (tap, distilled, RO)? What and how often are you feeding? Are you using any supplements or additives? Could you show us a pic of the bottom of your solo? (I'm curious about drainage.)

There are some excellent germination/seedling videos on YouTube. Welcome to the Growtent has one. Dawgo the Hutt has one. Coco for Cannabis has great step by step instructions on his website. I'm sure there are a lot of other good ones. I'd pick a method that appeals to you and follow it.

I mostly use filtered water. But I adjust ph if needed. Im not able to lower intensity of light. I just raised it up. I've grown in this setup before. 3 times. But the last 6 times it stops growing. I'm in yuma arizona, so the inside temp stays around 81 and humidity is up to 60. Don't know if it's not growing right not. I gave it a good watering when I put in cup. Started light on 16th. And only gave a couple spritz of water since. Moisture level still reads ok. And it feels like it still damp. I think it was a water problem. Before, so I'm trying to wait till it ask for water

I'm not big on coco, but ino it's a hydroponic / soil medium. In my experience, you don't want coco drying out; hit that with runoff continuously.
