Would love a second set of eyes! TY

so being a idiot cheapskate I neglected my new clone in the first few weeks and may have tinkered trying to balance her out... from nutrient burn to climate inadequacies I’ve been through it all in a few short weeks.. but, now I’m here. I built a humidor box that uses a humidifier to hydrate the air with a 2 speed clip fan to circulate air. As of now I crack the door to let air escape. I’ve battled the dreaded overwatering with a clay pot- so now she’s in a breathable bag to help, running 4x cfls that are producing 3600 lumens atm. I guess the reason I am asking for your advice is to get a second set of eyes on my ish...the growth has been about two days after I cut ALOT of the dying matter from her. Just want to know if the stem is looking sustainable and any other observations y’all have that are constructive would really give me confidence! Thanks guys!

At some point you're going to want to add more light. Is there a reason you put the whole plant (pot included) into the new fabric pot or am I not seeing that correctly? Your little one is looking rough, but she's not dead, so there's always hope. Otherwise, you'll need to provide more details about your grow if you're looking for further constructive criticism. Good luck friend.

Hey CannaCountry!
Thank you for your input I appreciate you! That yellow disk is simply a lays stax lid which I put some of the soil I used below the top mulch medium. I being a naive noob thought she wasn’t getting those nutrients) put a little ‘concentration tray’ to (attempt) to narrow the path of travel to the root... repotted abt a week ago, found root hasn’t traveled in prior pot but that had crap drainage lol. I have Dr. Earth’s potting mix which I believe is 5-7-6 but I may be incorrect I’d have to recheck the packaging I haven’t introduced that yet though because I’m scared that it might shock it again and I am literally feeling so bad for this plan I’ve tortured/butchered it and I am just ready to let it have a good life until I need the cloning time if I am lucky enough to get their fingers crossed LOL. I have cut up banana peels and a few green apples and introduce them into the soil substrate in order to enrich the soil have contemplated getting worms to help compost into a fine or substrate but again I’m in idiot so LOL I am figuring this all out at once. I am looking at a 600 W LED grow light from Amazon so that way I can start getting some red and blue lights For farther down the growth path.

Morning Schlates

Looks like you have the addition of light coming, so that's good. I get the little 'concentration tray'...though I can tell you it's not really necessary, but if it makes you happy, leave it...it's not going to hurt. Remember what the old man said; 'Slow and steady wins the race.' I would just water her until she puts a few more leaves on...and while the banana peels and apples might do well when they have time to decompose, I would refrain from adding them at this point. They will only aid in bringing in molds and / or pests otherwise. Take a breath and let your girl breathe...once she puts on some leaves and begins stretching her legs a little, you can go back to tinkering with things. Good luck!

lol well I made a bad choice and really wanted a strain of sueno- was the last one they had and instead of making the right choice and getting a healthier looking strain i tried to run with this guy...started the grow w little to no light nutrients etc... now I got a little better of a setup and from last night I already see new growth so I learned my lesson hahah but yeah it looks pretty shitty right now..but looking a little better than last night she’s growing

That's a good step in the right direction mate, hope it all works out, all growing is a learning curve

Would you be against making a hole in the top and bottom of the cabinet so you can exchange air better?

Upwards to 100 true watts have almost every spectrum represented, bottom plant is the original and far right mid gen (2weeks) and top left clone purchased on 1/2/18..
soil is royal gold tupur coco soil.
Fertilizer organic; dr earth 4-6-3 each respective dose.
Cal-mag equally dosed
Both of the healthier clones are SUEÑO
Weak ass clone is OREGON HUCK

Large clone in clay pot “Lucy” lol just transplanted today, no look of frantic transplant damage.

Constantly adding to improve,
Temperature running true 70 degrees

I’m deciding whether or not to let this one go- don’t know if this single leaf will sustain new bud growth?

Sorry for double post just like input thanks!
This original clone is the last bit of my extremely amateur attempt, so if I can bring this back great, but don’t feel bad letting her go. I have plenty of nutrients to disposal if that is a issue

Alright may have misspoke... day after slight shock but 2 hours in shade helped? Transplanted the HUCK, saw her roots ran deeeeeeep, not horizontal so now is in experimental gallon container. Bright white roots, hit rooting powder as always, rapid rooter. Waiting for that nun to show me life is beautiful.. I know I fuc$ed up cutting nodes... way too late to say I knew better... butttt like I saw had a tinnnny node so that’s my hope..listening to simple man trying to rectify her hahahah

Don't buy that 600w led, it's a piece of junk no offense. I bought two cheap chinese LEDs and the diodes are already going out with less than 1000 hours of use. Don't make the same mistake as me; build your own QB/cob set up.

No offense taken!!
Yeah I’m just looking to keep one or two maybe personal and that’s about it not trying to get rich With weed by mass production but also would not shake a stick at the idea of getting better buzzes!
Starting a new job and unfortunately daddy ain’t going to be home to water the babies and watch them so if there is an optimal plan for my wife I could give her including the next upgrade for wattage I am a very open Grower as long as there’s sustainability and fruit in the end then I will invest myself indefinitely!


I truly appreciate your honesty man! Saves me the time and money Not that I wish it to be at your expense

Fried day update, 6.0 is bar none the best pH I’ve experienced yet! Nitrogen FLOWING getting super green! Started using distilled h20- 3 mg. Ph- .....5mg calmag to restore balance of calcium/magnesium.... added a pinch more of dr earth’s home grown and holy shit ain’t GOD good? And this shy lil Oregon guy decided to rebud her abuse from my extreme n00b beginnings! My God pH is the the biggest thing I will NEVER ignore again.
