okay, i have a closet grow room, running one cfl bulb n a grow bulb in a dual sided house lamp, i have a humidifier as my circulation system, i dont run the humidifier part i only run the fan, i have them under 24-7 light, it keep it 75-85 degrees, i water only when i think they need waterd, maybe once a day or once every two days with a miracle grow n cold water mixture. my tallest plant is my babi and is about 10 inches- 1 ft tall wif its fourth set of leaves, there only 3 sided leafs though so im not sure whats going on, but on my biggest plant i noticed the first set of leaves the round circular ones are startin to fall of and the first set of fan leaves have brown spots on the tips, whats the problem? my second tallest plant, remember they have all been growing for 35 days, i started wif 10 plants now i have 3, the second tAllest plant has his first circular leaves and its first set of fan leaves, but its fan leaves look retarded and are shriviling up and yellowing, n that plant hasnt grown at all in two weeks or so, what can i do to save that plant n make it grow again? my last plant n my babi was growing the strongest stem, was the shortest n had the most set of fan leaves growing so i think she might be a female, i transplanted it to a bigger huge pot directly under light n with barley any circulation, it stopped growing for 2 weeks n still isnt growing ive translpated it bak to a smaller pot in hopes that it will start growing again but so far no good, what can i do to help it survive, any suggestions or comments are appreciated thankyou... pics of my 35 day old plants below

oh man dude thats not gonna work. How powerful is your light? Pot, even seedlings, needs a LOT of light. Check it look how close these are...

Just pretty much read the lighting section in the GrowFAQ

Why are you running two threads on the same plants? You don't like the info we gave you in the other thread? You didn't even mention you were using MG plant food. At that age you will kill them. They are no where ready for nutes...... Stick to a single thread and post ALL your info in that same thread and you'll get better advcie from more informed people...

i have 3 different plants, 3 different posts on problems with each one by them selves, but then i added all my new pics and it turned into 3 threads about all of them, i like all information and advice thats come from anyone.. i am trying to get as much help as possible.. thankyou... i just dont want my plants to die.. i switched from grow bulbs to two cfl 13 watt which = 60 watt reg bulbs. giving off 850 lumens each so about 1700 lumens on my plants 24-7 in the closet , i moved the light closer, n got the fan blowing more on them with more circulation, any suggestions welcome..thankyou

not to sound too harsh but your not even close to being prepared to grow indoors.... save a couple hundred bucks buy some supplies then germinate a couple seeds... or try outdoor maybe!!!

look i live wif my gf n her parents, they never come into my bedroom, so i turned my closet into a small experimental center. understood? so ive put the best i can afford and get my hands on n took the best possible care of them i could. i just added another grow bulb so im runnin two 13 watt cfl lights n a 60 watt dark blue grow bulb ive lowered the lighting as well so im looking to see big change, so wish me luck n keep the suggestions coming. i am a hobbiest not a professional.

With those lights you will never get any bud. Why dont you just germinate some more seeds and plant them outside this summer. Then you will have some cash to get a decent light and some gear.

Get a 250w hps to help them grow, but growing in someone elses house isnt using your noggin. how are you going to control the smell if you get that far, or temps. Plus you are breaking the trust between your family and yourself, not a good idea shitting in your own backyard you know. Id get those plants outside if at all possible, unless there is still chance of frost.

Well Honestly It Still Dips Into The Mid 30s And Highs Are Only 65 At Best, Another Two Weeks Or So And We Will Be Xpecting Better Weather Start Getting Into The 70's, I Have A Thermometer In The Grow Room Under The Lights And In The Circulation To Give Me A Fair Reading Of The Temps... N Ive Went Everywhere True Value Sears K-mart Askin For Hps Bulbs N They Keep Telling Me They Havent Heard Of Them Where Do I Get Them, How Much Do They Cost, Does The Aero Grow 150 Buck Hydroponic System Work? For Now Im Gonna Keep My Plants Under Two Cfls And A Grow Bulb And Hope For The Best... Any More Suggestions Please Help But Remember Im Broke For Now

yea horrible idea to grow in your girlfriends parents home. you should get rid of it now, it looks bad anyway... are you trying to grow it with a desk lamp? you need ALOT more lights bro (which has already been stated but i couldnt read this thread without commenting)

well my gf mom is cool wif it, i just have to watch out for her old ass dad but he never comes in my room, so its all good, he actually found it once when they were younger in my gf rm closet n didnt even get mad just told me i had to move them outside, but its to cold, so i have them inside until it warms up enough then ill leave them out all day n in my grow room at night, i just want to save my plants and keep them growinging even if i get a sucky ass plant in the end i just want to have one. ive put alot of time and effort into this ghetto ass setup...give me suggestions on how to make them better.

if i were you id go on craigs list you might get a cheap local used light but honestly man i don't wanna rain on your parade but you'd be lucky to get more than 1/4 of bud from that. Consider this, i doubt you'd be able to get .5 grams / watt... and i still don't know what kind of light you got but i imagine it can't be more than 50 watts...soo....

i hate to say this but you might consider scraping the whole op it seems fishy or at least moving them outside. the sun's free.

well i got two 13watt cfls- 13w cfl= 60 watt reg bulbs, plus a 90 watt i beleive plant bulb. thats all the lighting, i mean this plant was never meant to be perfect, i am just trying to grow a plant just to seek the benefits to i can say, i grew this, this is mine, that bud is mine, i made it, u know just for fun, a hobby type thing, when i get my own place i will put more money into it... i am broke at the moment but i just got hired the other day at a retail outlet so i should have some $ to invest into it.. and when it warms up i plan on moving them outside right now its extrememly windy maybe 70 degrees
