starting from seed

[original Blues]

Hay up quick question, just got me self

serios seeds White russian x10 reg
euthoria dutch passion x10 reg

i soaked 5 of each in a paper towel in the heated propogator 4 24hrs they all split in 24 hrs then put them in the 4 inch pots with coco they all emerged from the coco 2 days later.

day 4 they reached a couple of inch inch tall I opened the vents and sprayed them with a little water.

day 5 I proped the lid open a inch.

now day 8 they a about 3-5 inch tall and the real leafs are starting to develop but they are top heavy and need supporting I gave them there 1st drink today 40ml of rizotonic diluted with water 4ml/ltr ph5.8. they are about 2 feet away from the light flouresents.

I have not done seeds for some years and I did some jack hereres last month and fooked the lot up they went soft and collapsed as i had them in the propogator to long. Im wondering how long (normally) it takes for the plants to be strong enough to support there own weight as they seek a little lanky or and tips?

it looks like your seeds are way to far from your lights... they are stretching.. put them closer.. my seeds are like 3 inches from my cfls.. they stretched maybe 1 inch.. one them.. if i were you. transplant them into a deeper pot and bury the stem as far as you can.. i heard you can try loooping it but be careful as you might snap it...

Heres a old pic of one of my seedlings... I am not sure tho as im still only on my first grow.. just flowering out now. but i have a whole bunch of new seedlings in my veg chamber too and some clones i took before i flowered so i could keep moms.

These things are meant to sprout in the open air under the full strength of the sun. Get them out of the dome ASAP and stop spraying them. Get them under a proper lamp. They don't know much but they know when they're being robbed and will hurt themselves as they stretch wildly searching for stronger light.

Propagators with humidity domes are meant for cuttings/clones,the high humidity stops the cuttings from wilting.
Your seedlings have a root system to take up water so a dome or spraying is not necessary.

Like the guys say get the seedlings out of there and put them closer to the lights.

repotted on sat into allmix soil and a 250watt mh wow what a improvment they seem to be coming on new leaves coming through just in time. so i decided to get the other seeds moving was lucky to get a extra white russian seed in my pack so placed seeds into a damp towel in a tipaware box sat on my wifi box to keep them warm and 20 hours later they all popped with a 10mm tail droped them into some all mix with a sprinkle of water this evening im hoping the all mix will not be to strong? so 6white russian 5 ethoria keep you posted.
