I've re-potted to try and manage these poorly babs better. The second sets are trying still and the first set on the big one looks like it might survive. a lot of fading and yellowing on all the first sets but I don't want to add anything to them right now.
any advice is greatly appreciated.
Also started a new critical kush grow to try and catch up to any of these if they survive.
You did amazing! I'm wondering if they are just stunted and unable to come back to life because of the size of the pots. I will.keep them but I think I'll try and downsize the pots
Based on your picture showing the lights, you cooked em. Too much light, too close, and the heat from that cooked them. I had a 35w bulb about 2 inches from the top which was fine, then switched to 65w at same height and I warped my plant. Next time try starting out about 6 or 8 inches and slowly moving downwards to the tops. But a setup like you have is going to create way too much heat above them.
hey man, my issues were a combo of too much cfl light too early and I accidentally sprayed them with nuted feed not water! they are loving the cfls now. good luck with yours too mate.
They are 40W's, I tried the hand test on this set up and it wasn't too warm. There is a fan blowing on the bulbs. the initial burn was when my set up lowered itself and I woke up with them essentially touching. and I fed them nutes way early. The photo is slightly deceptive too. they've been under that set up for three days and they are showing new green growth so I think it's ok. thanks for the comment man
