      • you need a good T5 or CFLs for seedings

        • they look fine to me...id say the way the leafs are kinda weird lookin is genetics...a big share of my grows have that happen too..   they straighten out after a couple sets of leafs...

          • agreed...they are fine...just when ever you transplant em cover them stems up except for the top couple inches...

            • They look fine except for the leaf turning up a little bit

            • some seedlings having there leaves twisted the first few days / weeks happen all the time, nothing to worry about.

              • the leaf look ok, but those skinny toothpick stems are what worry me!  If the seedlings cant support themselves there is little hope for the future

                • Some weak air movement (like breath exhale strength) might thicken those stalks. They look a little young for nutes, but I've recently discovered the benefits of a silica supplement to increase the hardiness of the whole plant when they're a little bigger.

                  • I agree dave...that will definitely work with the lanky stems...
