I tried a few things different for this grow. First is my lighting. Second is my starting pots... I changed my lighting from cfl bulbs to a 600w MH. I changed my pots to dixie cups to get started.
The way I germinate is between a stack of wet paper towels in complete darkness and I plant them when the white root pops out of the seed. This is how I have done it time after time with 0 problems.
This time I only had 4 of 10 sprout out of the soil and 3 of the 4 are laying on there side and just look very stretched out and weak. I don't know what is causing this. Is it my light? Is it the heat? Is it the cups?
With the new lighting I have raised the heat in the room anywhere between 81-84 degrees. Before the lighting change I was at about 76-78. Could this be my problem?
