Probably should have mentioned the light is an LED from Advanced, the Diamond series-I'm replacing my HPS. Has great user reviews-hoping I love it also.
Hi, I've got a much more powerful light than I normally use arriving today.

Thanks for the tip on the runoff!
Re: Please help :/
At day 9 from germination they should still be operating on reserves from their seed leaves.
Have you PH'd your water? What are you growing them in? How much are they getting to drink?
