we believe we over watered them, and they may be getting root rot, we bought some root excelurator, and were going to use it next time we water, but were hoping its the best thing to do for them right now, do you believe so ? if not please help !

just let um dry out real good between waterings , they dont look bad at all , thats normal. they are slightly overwatered but it appears that mix will dry up quick , just dont be ancy on the water .... they will tell you if they need water that bad.

in the meantime , READ READ an READ some more.





good luck.

There are a few things we're concerned about The pre-Leafs on the plants there turning brown and withering is that normal for 2 weeks old??
 
Need more info like:
Soil type
PH of water going in

Also what type of light are you using. If its not a hid light I would lower it a bit to stop them from streching.
 
I'm only up to the high 400's in consuming this thread, but wanted to jump ahead to say THANKS UB and to some of the other clear-headed contributors to this thread. My garDEENias (pronounced as Marlon Brands does in the role of Col.Kurtz*) are looking lovely (better) already.

If you don't mind TB, I'm running a quote of yours for a sig. Cheers and Mellow!

Just wondering ,when a plant has suffered upper leaf damage from hid lamp, can it affect the plant overall and stop it growing?. Also can this damage appear as a blistered pale leaf/leaves ?

well it will for sure stop that area from growing. the thing that will stop the whole plant from growing is the heat in the room. (or many other reasons)

too much light can cause the pail , cause it burns up the chloraphyll.

You're welcome.

Too much light bleaches out chlorophyll, an essential pigment for photosynthesis.

You can top, cut out, the burned branches which will induce new foliar output. Any time you remove or cause necrosis of leaves you reduce plant vigor, health, and production.
