Why Are My Seedlings Laying Down?

Asked By GreenThumb47 On

I have some seedlings that are just 11 days old and they're starting to droop, which has me really worried. I recently moved the grow lights closer, and I just added a fan this morning. I'm suspecting that the fan might be the issue, but I'm not entirely sure. Can someone help me out with this?

It sounds like your seedlings might be getting too leggy and struggling due to insufficient light. If you can, post a photo so we can see what's going on! That would really help in diagnosing the issue.

I'm not sure how to post a photo, though. Any tips?

How are they positioned? Did they start drooping before or after you added the fan? Typically, I wait to use a fan until they have a set of stronger leaves—like a prep for outdoor conditions. If they were standing upright before, maybe a picture would clarify things further.

They were definitely standing vertical before I used the fan.
