I've just started growing for the first time. It's been 5 days since I planted the seeds. They are showing sings of yellowish tips. I looked into this and I concluded it may be 'Nute Burn'. I am using 'Yates Potting Mix with Dynamic lifter' and 'Perlite' for my soil. Is this a problem that I should fix or would it fix on its own over time? Any help is awesome. Thanks!
I don't think that's nute burn, the tips usually get crispy with nute burn. What are the temps/humidity? The soil looks really wet how fast are they drying out? As long as your Temps are in the 70's they will be fine without a heater growth will be slow the cooler it is.
Temperature is around 78 whilst the humidity is around 45%. I just Watered it before I took the photo. But takes 3 days for the top soil to dry up before I re water. If you think it isn't nuts burn. What could it be? I checked back on my plants, the yellow is getting more
I'm leaning towards a deficiency of some sorts Temps seem fine humidity could be higher but it should be fine. I'm not familiar with the brand of soil is it organic or fertilizer base?. How much run off per watering are you giving them? Seedlings that size don't really need nutrients, maybe next time try a seed starter mix or just mix up some coir with a little peat, and perlite . I use a coir perlite mix from seed to flower .
I've found the soil with tiny sticks like that tend to suck. Its probably a pH issue and might be best to find a higher quality soil when you transplant them. You also probably have a time-release fertilizer in that mix that you have to consider.
Potting soils are often made for house plants that are meant to be watered less frequently, thus the need for the extra perlite to allow for proper drainage and speed up times between watering. Its still not an ideal medium most the time.
