ok this is my 2nd grow i germinated sum a few seeds i had germinated on March 22nd have them under a 250 watt light by march 23 they sprouted with 4 leaves it is now march 28th 2013 and my plants are startin to wilt i water them with plain room temp h20 and have had them under 24hr light since planting them a few days ago WHY ARE THEY WILTING????? sorry no pics yet.......i was gonna wait and take them after they turned a week old, didnt know i would have this prob
(pics would really help.) what exactly do you mean by wilting? is the stem getting really long, and the plant is falling over? if so, your light is too far away, and the plants are stretching.
Let's get some basics here. What size container are they in and how much are you watering them? I assume you are in soil? What are your temps and how close is your light to the plants?
i jus took pis n will load them in a few its about 70/75 degrees the pots are a gallon water them twice a day morning n evening 24 hr light lights are 1.5/2 ft away from plants they looked moist when i made this post 6hrs ago went to sleep n now they look dry my wife said the soils were dry so she watered them n now i have this
What kind of light are you using? 250w what? Watering twice a day is most likely your problem honestly...
I took these pics at 730am Is there any thing i can do?? One of them is not dead so i know i still have a chance with that
At this early stage of plant life three only thing that could really going on is a bad environment Too hot or cold No ventilation or badly vented Incorrect lighting / distance Improper grow medium Of ours already showing signs of throw them out and re evaluate you're set up
They don't look terrible. Watering 2 times a day? Yikes...you should prob only be watering once every 3-4 days. Just because the top feels dry doesn't mean they need water. Go by how heavy the pot feels.
