What are the temps? And relative humidity?

Hey also a suggestion I had seen if you are concerned about over watering is get a scale and weigh a pot that you fill with medium and leave dry. Take that weight and record it. You can do this when you are potting up before you water in the medium and plant up the seeds. Then throughout your grow you can pick up your pot and feel the weight by hand, and if you doubt yourself, plop it on the scale and compare it to that earlier dry weight. Soon enough you won't need the scale or an extra dry pot to know when to water. The one thing I made different in my watering was making it wider and further out to accelerate the outward root development. I essentially water the edge of my bag now and send maybe a couple hundred ml right down the stalk. This has proven beneficial to me as I have seen way better growth after I made this change. I also started watering with a higher amount at an earlier stage. To try and get those roots to drop in the container and not just sit in a little ball up top.

How much water are you giving them? I'm trying to do some research to help you out! We are going to save these girls!

Day 10

I want to start by saying thanks again for all of the input. I haven't watered the girls since Thursday. I was afraid I was watering too much so it was suggested that I sit back, smoke a joint and let them dry out. I was planning on watering them tonight a few hours before lights out. I welcome any input from the community. Temp and humidity are fine. One of the girls looks really sick, but I lack the ability to diagnose:

The rest look ok for the most part. I think a little small for 10 days, but again, what do I l know. Here are the rest of them:

Don't water them yet. You don't even have a set of true leaves yet and I doubt the roots have even hit the bottom of the pot. These are 5 gallon pots, let them dry a bit more while the roots develop. Slow upper growth means usually that growth is occurring below the coco. Once the roots develop enough the plant is going to take off.

Keep your Temps and Humidity within VPD for optimal growth and leave the plants themselves alone. I've attached a VPD chart. Nothing else needs to be messed with until the roots get established just maintaining a growth promoting environment. You added recharge, full of beneficials, which will thrive in coco and take around 2 weeks to establish but will aid in plant development and nutrient uptake.

Chill and watch for now

It's just coco and perlite right? You should be watering every day, just a little. You don't want coco to go completely dry at any point during the grow, especially not now. It's pretty much impossible to over water in coco.

Good morning all. I didn't water them yesterday but the pots are getting kind of light and I am going to run my system today for a couple of minutes. I have been reading everyone's feedback and just to be clear this is an ebb and flow system which feeds from the bottom up. I have been manual top feeding for the last week and a half. They haven't had any water since Thursday. Now that the pots are getting light and drying out I am going to run my system later today for a few minutes. I will post pics later today. Keep the feedback coming as I am soaking it all in.
