Help! Shrivling Cotyledon with purple stems

TrinidadPerfume
11 years ago

Dear fellow Gardenweb member,

Last night, my Trinidad Perfume Habanero seedlings were proudly reaching toward their two, 6500k, 40 watt t12 flourescent bulbs. I noticed that the once white stems were a bit purple.

I just checked to find that the stems are now completely purple, the plant is leaning over and the cotyledons are shriveling.

Variables
I watered last night by spraying pure water directly on the stems where they meet the soil. (MG organic choice w/ perlite that I added).

Lights are no more than 2 inches above the plants.

Please help, and nice to be here!

Thank you,

Ralph
