So this is why I hate Australia,

Well I don't technically hate Australia just the heat element. The healthier looking one can you believe it 4 weeks old easy ryder. Very very hot tropical conditions. Rained in the afternoon with 30+ degree days. Nothing I could have done my box wasn't ready to go, had a few design issues.

When the box was finished I put it in for a 2 weeks and with temp being ~25 mark using CFLs. Now it looks practically dead.

What has just happened? The conditions were perfect. Doesn't this stuff grow prolifically? 3 - 4 days ago it was fine with a little browning of the tips. So i moved the lights up an inch. hmmm....

You'd think it would be easy. >.>

I'm going to assume it may be the soil Canna soil however I doubt that quite a bit.

You should add some fans. The soil also looks like straight up peat moss. It looks like bad nute burn and heat stress. I would throw them out and start again.

Peace!!!

Thanks that was what I'm planning on doing now. I wanted to see how much it could have recovered, I guess not...

I have fans 2 intakes 1 outtake.

I added no nutes

So it must be the soil.
I didn't notice but it has higher nitrogen levels that first thought.

Thanks. :)

i had some canna tabs from a jump start kit, it came with seedling mat. thats when i 1st ever ordered seeds. i am going to say i think its the canna, it did that same sh!t to my full moon, looked exactly the same, no nutes or anything, lights were aove wasnt a heat issuse, when you water watch how much brown dye comes out or whatever it is. but i saying its the canna, same looking and everything as to what happened to my full moon, the one on the right is gone, the healthier looking one might make it, but my full moon did the same. i went back to soil for my starter cups and no issuses at all. it might have been just the canna tabs i had but i threw them out and swore to never use it again.

Firstly i would like to ask whether the CANNA you are using is COCO or SOIL?

If it is coco you HAVE to nute it before you plant anything in it as it is virtually devoid of nutrients.

Second is that with coco you have to have COCO specific nutes.

Third is that with every watering of coco you have to achieve 20% runoff in order to keep the medium from building up salts.

Fourth is that with every watering you should be feeding.



IF you are not using COCO then please disregard my above help.
