Help plants are dying. Have been using LED lighting 65 W. From what I’m seeing on thinking I can not be using LED lighting and need to switch to fluorescent? Have a moisture meter and have put it in and it says wet but the plants look like they’re dying. I do have a couple of actual plant lights in there as well . Can someone help tell me is there a way to revive these? On waster meter pH readings at about 7 to 8. These are indoor and the lights are about 10 inches from them. Please be nice I’m new at this. Oh I have a small fan blowing on them now. They were doing fine until I replanted them. Yes there are holes in this bucket at the bottom with the ability to drain.

Most likely either root rot or the new soil had too many nutes in it and burned the roots

So when you replanted, it went into the exact same setup? Nothing changed? Yea back off watering if the soil is wet, and if youve got some cfl lights pop them in and they only have to be like 2-3in from the plant if you have a fan. Just double check you've got adequate lights and that their the correct distance. You can water with a Fox farm product called boomerang and its supposed to help with accidental abuse etc, but if you've been waterinh excessively then maybe try to wait a little bit. I'm sorry about the unpleasant turn, but maybe she can come back to you.

Judging from your last pictures, there's not much you can do, they seem 100% dead :( Sorry ... Your soil looks very wet, what's your substratum in the pots? How often did you water them? Did you let them dry between waterings? We need an entire description of you feeding+watering+drying schedule, with nutrients involved and any details you can provide, so we can help you improve your next session.
