I've got a couple ButchT plants going. After 2 weeks still didn't have a true leaf on them, so I've started setting them out in the TN sun during the day. It's been low to mid 80's for highs the past few days. After a couple days in the sun the seedlings have started putting on first true leaf. Now the problem is last night the cots look like they are dieing. There's not enough leaf to sustain plant if cots die off. Recommendations? Not sure whether to keep indoors for a while or keep going.

The Cots got UV Burn..they are toast...You need to only set plants out on cloucy days or provide some shade..Unless you start them outside

I would keep them outside the damage is already done..The Sun on average is 10 times brighter than a artificial light can produce

I believe they are goin to make it. One plant is putting on second set of leaves now, and the one that looked the worst, I'm seeing growth on 1st set of true leaves.
