Sick (indoor grown) moso seedlings? Brown blade tips

[dirk1609]

My seedlings, about four to five inches tall, have stopped growing and the blade tips are turning brown and the plant seems to be leaning. Any way to save them?
Thanks

Hi,
Is the growing tip also turning brown? How's the light conditions, soil temps etc? The more details, the better..

Leaf tips are turning brown growing tip looks great. Light condition is 2 full spectrium ott lights running all day. They are cool run lamps so there is no heat causing it. As for soil temp I they are indoor and my house is around 73

They should be happy sprouts!
Is the browning just on the 2 first sets of (false) leaves? I think they're called cotlyldons...

They usually wither away soon after the first sets of true leaves emerge.

Or is the browning on the tips of the true leaves as well? ...

Other problems can be caused by unbalanced ph (acidity/alakalnity) and nutrient lack of, or excess.

Oh yes, and make sure if the air is dry indoors, that they occasionally get spritzed with a mist sprayer.)

Got pics? (preferrably below 200K)

It does appear to be on the first set of leaves only. I tried to take a few pics But I will need to set up my tripod to catch the detail.
