Yeah when everything is growing the whole house acts as a "lung" for the tents. Its a lot. But man the air in my house is soooooo fresh.
Pretty sure there’s no coming back from this

You could look up some led grow lights on aliexpress that don't run up too much wattage. I ordered a pretty cool 20 watt grow bar for like 25 bucks (canadian) that I'm using for clones. Check out aliexpress if you're interested in ordering something. They sell these sweet little 50 watt led panels for like 30 some odd dollars, might wanna check those out!

32" you say? Buy a T5HO fixture! You can get pretty close to cfl but you CAN'T touch them. Shit gets HOT! These High Output T5's though... once you're in flowering.. she can cuddle with the damn thing. The bulbs are 54w a piece and 5,000 Lumens! My 47"x18" fixture is 324W(30,000 lumens) and can grow around a 1/2 lb using red and blue bulbs. If you throw some girls into flower immediately and make a scrog… you should be able to pull a few oz's in your 32" closet. Not sure if my light would fit, but there are other sizes. Just make sure to look at the HO ones and not the measly 2,000 lumen regular T5's. You'll probably want multiple single units or one of the 4 bulb 2 footers.
Ironically my T5 fixture is sitting 32" from the top of it(I use it as a shelf for nutes) to the base of my pots lmao I have 1G pot full to the BRIM with soil and the pots are 7", add that to the 2" clearance of the unit and I still have 23 whole utilizable inches to fill with plants. From there you can do a lot. Supercrop and leave 20" for flowering. Let them grow to 11 or 12 inches and just flower... you could definitely set up a perpetual Sea Of Green with 23 inches. I can fit like 14 or 16 of the 1G pots under mine.

Exactly Joe! Most try to pump them full of useless crap that is not needed, they just think it is
Water is a great fallback, if not sure what to do, just water and youll see just how much we take it for granted...
I had a topped seedling, everyone thought it was toast, I kept her, not giving up, leaving it along for a few weeks, and she bounced back from the grave ? Amazing
And i proved everyone who said it wouldnt make it Wrong!
Lol I just love the resilience of mj ,such a tough lil bush!

Not only is it useless to the plant, it does damage by causing nutrient lockout. If you are growing in soil and your plant is having issues very early on, the vast majority of the time it just needs water and time. If you in hydro it may be a different story but if a plant isnt doing well, it likely doesnt need tons of nutrients, 1/4 strength as you nurse her back to health.Exactly Joe!

Heres an update on my girls. They are all doing very well. The clones are a bit stretchy and sparse but considering the terrible start they had, they are doing amazing.
got a new light, hlg 65 with a dimmer ..could you take a look at my plant and tell me what you think? I’m thinking general nute lockout because I top dressed the strawberry fields with ocean forest, and then a few waterings later gave a super light dose of nutes so I’m assuming I screwed the ph up ..flushed it real good like 4 days ago, waiting for it to dry out pretty good so the ph can swing and gonna water again real good in a few days with possibly myko added if it gets here in time
the yellowing started after i fed it for the first time ..never using strawberry fields again for one, also not using nutes on ocean forest again until the very end (possibly), also trying to make my initial solo cup ocean forest mix less hot next time with more perlite/happy frog
