Disaster Strikes URGENT HELP!!! :-( V.Unhappy

We just had a bank holiday here in UK, so was unable to check on my babies for 3days as the missus is at home and she don't know about my indoor guerilla grow!!!!

She gone out now and horror of horrors i open the grow room door and WTF!!! Looks like they have all been burned

I have attached pics for any comments please. Are they dead, dying or saveable.

They had been about 2inches under 2x 125 watt 6400k envirolites on 24/0 they are in canna coconut medium and i had just given them their first nutes on friday,1 teaspoon to 2litres of water NPK of 15-3-3.

From the way they look it seems as though they have been NUKED & Fried, my poor babies.

Also have attached pic of my greenhouse grow babies who apart from some stretching seem fine, same nutes same day.

Have put the light babies back to 4 inches under light now and am wondering what to do next???????

Someone anyone please help!!!!


All the best

Sorry the second & third pics are the injured babes!!!

First pic is the greenhouse babes Curly & Mo

the look fine - they will recover just dont let the light get that close again

I've brought them back from worse, so as long as you keep treatin' them right, they should get back to normal.

indeed they are still young just make sure you give them the time and attention they need. I brought mine back from way worse. One of my babies was a little bit bigger than those you pictured, and wheN i transplanted. I broke her stem in half close to the dirt. Yikes I was freeaked, so I just put some scotch tape around her and hoped for the best. Now she is almost ready to harvest w00t! so think positive .

are you giving nutes? or was it just too close to the lights?

good luck~

oops sorry i just re read your post I see the nutes and lights. Yeah they were probably too close to the light. Just my opinion~

perlite perlite perlite perlite!

my guess what happened is to much heat from that huge CFL and a bit nute burn in addition from that fertilizer you feed them. they are quiet young still, to young to nute them if the grow on soil.


i have no clue what this has to do with perlite, even if perlite never gone harm, but still go no clue on that one abudsmoker...

the same thing happened to me but except i didn't water them for 3 days. But as soon as i watered them, the next day they looked fine.

maybe he meant pearlite would give more oxygen and allow better run off............?

I am growing in coconut (Canna) which is supposed to have good run off and oxygen properties???

Anyways thanks for the words of hope guys, i'll stick with em,give em some TLC an see how we go.

All the best
