Seedling, Very small stem, help please

[andy12]

Hi, my seedling are 1 week old, first i germinate in rockwool cubes and 3 days ago i tranplant them to small pot with soil, the leaves are ok, and healthy, but i dont understand why the stem are very small, and weak, the is one time when i spray them they fall over, i have to use some stuff to support them. is there someting wrong with the soil nutrients?
i only feed them with water

What type of lighting are you using and lighting schedule?

happens to me sometimes.. i use a toothpick for support and twisty tie it together if i have to. it'll grow strong eventually

Wonderon, i'm using 4' TL fluorescent 2x36watt. distance 8".

Your feeding with a PH of 7.5? thats your problem right there

listen, give it some water with a drop of superthrive..it will help..always helps my runts be all they can be..use it..one drop to a bottle of water...peace

you can put those lights closer if u want also.. when i use floroscents i put em so close they almost touch

probably want to lower ph a little too.. let the water sit out for a day or so before you use it.

PH at 6 even( 5.6coco)
