Hard to tell from the photo but they need to be just moist, NOT wet like @M4ur said. They may be a little to wet.

noooo still drying out from the soaked cube, there is 0 water in the tray.

the light is currently 12 inches away, I was told babys dont need a whole bunch of light. and that LEDs too close can cause issues because of their intensity.

will upload a better photo my main concern was the dark green color, and the cotyledons curling downward?

have not used any nutes yet, I currently have the FF 3 pack

What exactly is your light? It may be to close now.

What he meant by natural light was a photo with out the LED on. It much easier to see the plant with out the purple.

12" is pretty close for that LED. All LEDs have different recommendations from the manufacturers. I’d double check what your lights recommend.

Like Rugar89 or Flyr said… When you have a problem you need to take a picture in natural light, this “natural light” is a light whitout led’s/mh/something.else on(just under sunlight if possible or whit your phone light on when you take the :camera_flash:). I hope this help! :+1:
This kind is not good

@omegasick, I believe the folks ahead of me explained the photo thing. Great visual aid @M4ur.

@omegasick, good for you. It’s difficult just watching and not doing something to them while you wait for them to grow.

frick one of my rockwool cubes tipped over and one of the round cotyledons broke is this gonna kill my plant?

@omegasick, You should be just fine. I had a bunch of grasshoppers graze through my outdoor grow long ago with various plant parts eaten off. I had various aged plants and they all survived. I bummed for a while hating grasshoppers for a long time after that. Just think that one little leaf could have actually saved the whole stalk from breaking.

thanks for the good vibes… im a paranoid new grower.

One of my healthiest, biggest plants lost both cotyledons when the seed got stuck in the rapid rooter. I almost tossed it, but the first teeny tiny serrated leaves were there (I mean tiny). It grew slower than the others for about 2 weeks, and then it caught up.

I’m only on my 4th grow. I feel you.
