These are Delicious Seeds. Popped in paper within 2 days. Planted in Black Gold seedling mix without fertilizer. After a week fertilized with weak solution of Canna Vega and Superthrive 1/4 strength. Fried them!! Some photos show the damage to the first leaves. Flushed. Watered that same week with even weaker solution and have been feeding, water, water, feeding with very weak solution of GO nutes plus Caps Biowar.
I may have let them dry out too much one or twice.
Its been a good month under a 600w MH. They are just beginning to form new growth in the last week. But I wonder if I damaged them so much that I should just start over?

600Ws is a lot of lamp for seedlings.. I like floros.. T5 or CFLs..
No they are not damaged to much,, they are showing new growth.. Patience will get 'er done..

Is so little growth after a month normal? I'm thinking I may have damaged them to the point where they will never fully recover and I might just as well start over.

Start some more and let these keep going, more to choose from. A month is a long time for such little progress, but I never give up.

That is not normal at all for the length of time. I have 2 plants that are 16 days from emerging from my soil..

Firstly, 600w is way too much light as has been stated. Second adding nutes to a seed starting medium...probably not a good idea at all. Third, cannabis is very resilient let em go. 4th my advice to you is to do a lot more reading and studying of cultivation. As my sig states knowledge is the key

Go fourth and Grow!

what happened is called damping off,new growth looks good,keep in mind if you get your feeding right ,they will be alright,that soil has enough in it to just use water,it is made that way as is the air in a bag of soil,i have some jedi that i was about to pitch too,shit in one week they just busted out,so dont let this deter you from growing ,keep it as a lesson curve,look at it like a tree,tree is 15 foot tall ,tap root to suport that tree will be half the length of the tree standing,with pine trees this is a fact i dug a tap root out of my garden that i didnt know of for 2 yrs,when i stuck that plow in there and was plowing and all of a sudden bam,damn near threw me off the tractor,but it took me a additional 3 yrs to pull that root up with my plow.
so with all that in mind dont feed it nothing but 6.5 ph water,stick your finger in there till you get to first knuckle if you pull a finger out with soil on it ,give another day. this isnt really a mistake as it is just being anxious to grow your own medicine .takes time on some strains,most folks really dont have the patience for seedlings ,thats why they buy clones,so they dont go threw what you are.when you master what you are doing now,you want turn back ,so ease up on the nutrient and water when needed.
im gonna give you a tip,when you want to germ you some seeds,get a solo cup pop bunch holes in bottom,for drainage,fill cup half way,ya half way,what goes on here is this,the plant will be little and piss you off waiting for it to do something,but a seed is just like the plant,the plant wants to reach for the sun,the seed taproot wants to hit the bottom of cup,when it hits bottom of cup,it then starts thickening up the stem,keep your light close but dont burn, to slow stretch,it will be a little thin stalk shooting up out that cup no bigger than a pencil lead,when you know it has hit the bottom of cup,you can put more soil in there,until your ready for transplant,then transplant up to 1gallon pot,use mykos for transplanting,but what your doing here is building a massive root ball,i go from solo to 1 gallon then to final pot,i know were you coming from friend,everyone say go read a book,you get on a site or 2 and all you here is research,thats what your doing now ,problem is the trolls showup and then you dont get nothing but something about another subject and never get a answer,find you someone that you are impressed with and let them teach you how to grow friend,everyone had to do the same,some think they were born doing it,just scroll on down the page when you see this,there are some great gardeners here and dont let the trolls hog you and piss you off,weed is here from the beginning of time and im glad to help anyone if i can,spread the love of your knowledge and dont fall for the dead beats that have nothing better to do.
grow the herb friend enjoy yourself ,dont get frustrated and learn,if you get one joint off that bitch ,you did it and dint pay for it ,and it always taste best when you do it,dont matter what anyone else thinks let them go get one of them 450 dollar bags to brag to there friends. tromp on threw the fog and rise my friend ,hope i helped you out a little bit

Best of luck.

I backed off nutrients and they started purpleing. So on a hunch I ditched the Bio Canna and got GH Floranova grow and within 2 days they were all looking ok and really starting to grow like crazy. Yay!

idk if you already tossed them but i had similar problems to you that set me back a few weeks too and one thing i can say is even my 400w was too much for my plants that size (i was over watering too) but they pulled through and my plants looked much worse than yours, id keep em going if i were you esp if you already fixed your problem
