I came home after working an 27 hr shift to see my lovely new plant dying. Im running a closet grow with 400w hps and a 6"outake 4"intake. Lights on temp is 82 and lights off is 72. The only issue i see is the humidity which stays at a steady 23 %. I havent been using nutes. Any help? I usually spray the tent with a mist every morning and night. Shes only About a week and a half old
Using regular tap water ph is 6.6. Used a basic miracle grow organic mix potting soil. 1st grow so very new to this 3 days ago
it sucks not getting your questions answered, i'm experiencing that quite a bit on this forum...suprising seeing as how theres like a million users on here haha I'd give advice, but i'm doing my first as well, and only 1 plant. It looks like all may be lost to me though... honestly it looks like terrible genetics. May just have been dead before it was born!
Yea it is a little frustrating. I honestly thought the seed dint germ and i start the other one. Rite before i was gunna toss it out , it sprouted. It was doing well but 1st grow n closet setup, it could just be an error on my part.
what soil are you using? also you may wanna try changing your light to cfl's until they get a bit stronger keep them 2 inches from your plants till flowering this may help.
tent still on? read in jorge cervantes' book that once its outta the soil take off the tent... i had some trouble with my first seedling which i kept the tent on for quite a while after outta soil, so with my newest one i took it off after a day outta soil and it's doing much better than the first. i think perhaps it was getting way too hot under it? my temps run about the same as urs with lights on. just my two cents....good luck!
Im a newbie too but ill try and help... i would suggest like the other guy to use CFL's until flower and to me it seems like you overwatered.. can i ask do you have drainage holes in your solo cup? and if not then do that ASAP and let your soil dry... a little fan on the soil can help sometimes too... Good luck brotha.. Hope she resurrects!! is it a bag seed or she got a name?
As stated, make sure you have drainage! CFL's until flower is not necessary! Bahaha! IMO but if your running Hid at this stage needs to be 3 feet away... If you can't do that switch to cfl or t5 for 10 days... No nutes! Future endeavours I recommend Happy Frog and no nutes for a month A fan is a great idea for air circulation!!! A little clip fan is great for this stage... Lmk if you have more questions! Happy Growing
