RE: Problem with seedlings

Thank You, Mary! I agree with you! I think if there was a big problem, they wouldn't continue to send up new flushes of growth. Larry

Larry, I find burnt tips to be a normal thing. Wish it weren't true but by the time my seedlings go out they look awful. It all comes out in the wash so to speak. As soon as the plants begin to grow outside everything is fine. I always thought it was the lights.  Some suggest it is lack of humidity others say fertilizer burn. I think the plants were just created for outside and just humor us by growing inside for a while.

Good Morning, Alttara!  The burnt tips are usually on the older leaves, but I have found a few with a new leaf. Larry

Hi Larry,

Is it new leaves with the burnt tips, or old?

-A.

I have several different varieties of hosta seedlings planted individually in styrofoam cups.  The tips of a few from each tray are showing signs of leaf burning. It is as if they are not getting enough water. Only the tips are showing this.  Will it hurt to snip off the burnt ends.  I am using fish emulsion on these seedlings, if that would make a difference. Any help would be appreciated! Larry
