When I use a heat matt I put a temp probe under a pot, without a controller they get too hot for seeds in a small amount of coco.

I've got seedlings under a 100w l.e.d at 18 inch above them and there loving life in light mixBrill itās sat at about 18-20inch now but Iāve dimmed it down to 25% will that be ok??
Hi guys
Iām struggling with this plant itās a little over a week since sprouting everything started brill but seem to have hit a shit point
Itās a new grow room (used to use a tent) and a new light mars hydro tsl2000
Itās dropping really bad and not growing much canāt work it out
The soil looks wet in the pic as I had just phd some water between 6-7 as in bio bizz light mix and fed it
Im wondering if the lights been to strong had it about 50cm and at 50% as struggling to get it Lower to the plant says 30cm on the website and 25%
Any advice be greatly appreciated

Most say 70-80°FWhat temp am I aiming for with the probe in the soil??
I didnt feed it just ph,d the water as says between 6 and 7 my water is a bit high thats allYou feed it ?
Thereās no need to ph your medium
The soil will buffer the ph just use straight up water from the tap.
What did you add food wise ?
Itās to early to be feeding it can stunt the growth feeding so early
How we meant to play jenga nowThrows me off tending to the outside garden with outside temps in the low 50's and then sticking my cold hands in the clone box it feels like they're getting roasted but temp is really only 76 degrees. The cheap priced Vivosun mat I bought doesn't have temp controls and at 80 degrees the rockwool cubes were evaporating before the end of the day. I lost a bunch of monster clippings before turning it down. Since there was no thermostat I put some Jenga blocks on the mat and laid the clone box on them so there's about 1/2" clearance. Got the idea here from a fellow grower who mentioned they use bottle caps to get a little distance.
ah ok still no need to ph mind the soil will buffer the phI didnt feed it just ph,d the water as says between 6 and 7 my water is a bit high thats all
Right onah ok still no need to ph mind the soil will buffer the ph
Mines 7.4 and I havenāt phed in years
Itās hard to get folks to understand they donāt need to ph there water when they first start In soil
They are OK for germinating, but I'd never run seedlings on them unless the room temp was in the low 60's. I wouldn't take a chance of destroying the enzymes the plant is making. Plant proteins are temperature sensitive & operate most effectively at about 68-84. If anything, set the pots on a thick towel or something to insulate them from the cold floor.Iāve been seeing mixed things on these heat pads?? I ordered 2 and then convinced myself and cancelled it are they worth it if so il order them again
There still on them at the minute as the temps are still cold here! even with a oil radiator in there struggling Iāve got them set to 74f so clicks on and off if gets to hot for them but rarely gets that high sits at about 72f with the probe in the soilThey are OK for germinating, but I'd never run seedlings on them unless the room temp was in the low 60's.

They are great for taking and making clones as well as germinating seeds. We'll worth the investment if you are in a cold zone.There still on them at the minute as the temps are still cold here! even with a oil radiator in there struggling Iāve got them set to 74f so clicks on and off if gets to hot for them but rarely gets that high sits at about 72f with the probe in the soil
This is also true. I plop my clones in a fresh bottle of water and set it on my germ mat. Takes a couple weeks but they root nicely.They are great for taking and making clones as well as germinating seeds. We'll worth the investment if you are in a cold zone.
