1st Indoor Grow, Advice Please? Gods Gift, OG Platinum, Candy Kush, G13

So I'll start by describing my setup, its a hollowed bookshelf with the backside open and front covered. Inside of the bookshelf lined with white paper. The lights I am using are...
- 2, 4200 lumen flourescents in metal reflecting hoods. (About 4-6 inchs away from the tops of the plants.
- 2, 40watt flourescent tubes against the back wall of the bookshelf for side lighting.

The temp is between 71-84 most of the time, dips below in the nights and mornings, but is pretty consistant. I have fan on at all times and the closet door cracked for venthilation. I plan on getting a 150+ watt hps plug in play setup when i switch them from veg to 12/12 flowering schedule.

First mistake I made was giving them some strong nutrients from the start, right home from the club. They got new soil and a flush with clean, pure water. I mean its only day 4 but im a little worried about the Gods Gift in particular (see pics), she looks a tad burned, and very very droopy. The droop effect seems to be with all of them besides the G13, her leaves seem to go straight for the light.

So I guess my question is...what am i doing wrong? what could i do better? all i've seen on this forum is good grows, and very informative people so if someone could better my grow that would be very appreciated! Thanks.

yeah, i overwatered them with nuts the first two days, then realized my screw up and moved them to bigger containers with fresh, dry soil then gave them a tad bit of fresh distilled water. the gods gift is still looking more droopy and a few more spots have appeared but other than that nothing has changed. All the other plants besides the G13, the fan leaves are very droopy, even though ive had constant air on them from day 1. Anymore advice? getting 3 more 68watt clfs soon.

tips of the gods gift are now fringing and brown. starting to panic. still no signs of any perking up. completely flushed, added drain holes for the containers as well.

also, does anyone have any pictures of there g13 plants? im from santa cruz, and the club said the strain was from the sc mountains, but its anybodys guess.

Update: OG Platinum is looking very droopy and Gods Gift hasnt improved at all. Im getting more worried, not even the slightest perk up from any of the plants and now the G13 has some weird stripe (pics below) on one of its main fan leaves. Any advice?

Well, woke up this morning and nothing new, accept the soil is pretty dry. Gave them a little water, enough for some to come out of the new drain holes i made. Hopefully they'll take off soon. Its day 5 now and nothing. Still looking crappy.

what type of nutrient are u given them how about some fox farm big grow and maybe superthrive ... Have those plants or clones even rooted. and what kind of medium do u have them in what type of soil u cannot use miracle grow like that? also lights should be 18in from canopies

Your plants well shown in gods gift have to much nutrients. You need to get rid of the soil with all them nutrients! Use coco soil or something from outside to start with, and re-pot into soil with nutrients when they start to get comfertable.

My plants had dropped bad over night one time, and they lokked like they were dying, i flushed them for 10 min in the shower keeping the sinkwater on warm to generate moist in the air and the shower for the flush. I literally watched them stand up and smile slowly but firm. Also tell your plant your sorry for the overfeeding and that they have to pull it together. GET YOUR ACT STRAIGHT! and you will watch over them and keep them safe...etc. Remember. the plants want to live!

Hope they live to see your lungs

Great response
