My seeds sprouted and are a dull yellowy colour

[guerrillauk]

6 of my 8 seeds have sprouted, from 7 different strains. They were germinated for 24hours in warm water, then were moved for a further 24hours wrapped in damp tissue between two plates. The sprouts are growing from moist peat pellets, in a heated propagator, kept at roughly 23degrees. The humidity in the propagator is relatively high, does anyone know what might be causing this discoloration?

They do not need dome on. You might be giving them to much humidity.

Hi guerrillauk to 420 Magazine.

The heat/humidity is stressing your seedlings.

Turn off the mat, take off their hat and let them breathe

 

[guerrillauk]

I did think that however I read somewhere you g cannabis plants like high humidity? Or was I mislead?

 

[guerrillauk]

If this works two simple suggestions might have just saved my entire grow, so is heat and humidity good or bad for small plants?

 

[CO Finest]

Clone's like heat and high humidity for the reason the have no roots and are feeding off of its foliage. When they grow there root system just like seedlings they no longer need to feed off of there foliage only roots so drop humidity down too 30%-50% and temp likes 70-75 is good.

High humidity is ok for a day or two when the seedling is just getting started, but you should 'harden it off' by taking it out of the dome for longer periods of time.

 

[guerrillauk]

Harden it off? So leave the Propagator lid off for longer periods of time each time?

That's right
