I have tomato, pepper and flower seeds started indoors (Maryland, 7). Most are in cardboard egg cartons, some in plastic pots with drainage. Medium is seed starter or potting soil with vermiculite. Some seedlings have gotten their second leaves, some not, but most are starting to pale in color. I am using 4 table lamps for light on desktop near window. I leave lights on almost all the time, turning off only a couple of nights a week. I spray plants with water several times a day. Too much light? Too dry? Not enough light? Need food? What would cause them to fade in color? Thank you.
