i know, i have them under a good light, and the ph level is fine, the light just fell on the plant for like 5 min and burned it, any way of curing?

the temps are usually 76-85 and i only mist the leaves when lights are off. I just some more soil in them and i guess one is completely fucked. but i have like 3 more plants.

Im pretty new at this but from what i gather theres not much reason to mist only 1 week into your grow. watering the soil well should be good enough. go pick up a moisture meter.

and you still havent mentioned what lights you are using just that they are good enough. but good enough doesnt tell anyone very much. you may think they are good enough but maybe your plants dont.

the night this happened i was using 2 fluorescent 630 lumen's each. one fell on the for like a minute or so and now i went back to one light instead of two.

Yea, those lights are shit...

My advice, scrap your plants, do LOTS of reading, and once you really know what your plants needs, THEN start growing.
Because it sounds like these plants are in a pretty awful environment, and don't have long to live without serious intervention.

they are growing really fast actually. The lights aren't the problem, im sorry if i dont have a 1000 watt hps but the lights will do and i have way more. :finger:

if you knew what you were doing, a lightweight cfl wouldnt have fallen on your plant... and how do you know it was for like a minute.... if you werent there, you wouldnt know and if you were there, why leave it for the 59.5 seconds longer than it should take to yank it back off.....

if 630 lumens is enough to grow, why even have light???

Don't ask for help and act like a rude little shit when people give you advice. Those lights are NOT good enough, not even close. you need at least 2000 lumens per square foot. Can you understand that? Two THOUSAND, not two hundred. It's obvious from your comments you have no clue what you're doing. And that "growing" they're doing so well, it's called stretching, and it's very likely the only growth you'll ever see from these doomed plants.

Maybe come back when you grow up and are willing to put a little thought into what the hell you're doing. Until then, just keep slowly killing these things.
