my plant is either suffering with nurient burn and heat stress. i was using a 400w hps lamp but this caused it to stretch, so i lowered the light and put an extra fan on it this caused the plant leaves to start curling up and turning brown.ive now changed to a 250w mh lamp and it seams to have stoped getting worse but most of the leaves are nearly dead. can a plant suvive this or should i just give up. its only two weeks old....
i really don't know much about indoor growing. but i would say to shorten the light time and get a weaker light for a while make sure it's getting enough water but not too much and don't over fertilize or overload with chemicals
Without pics I can't really comment, but I doubt it was you're light that killed the plant. Next time have a better fan and a digital pH meter.
Devil is in the details. Whats your medium? Whats your ph Whats your ppm/ec Whats your light schedule What distance is the light What nutes are you using
Wooooo 2 weeks old and you are pumping nutes and baking them under the 400 For seedlings start off with 1/4 strength solution (if at all) and learn read the leaves. If you begin to see a Nitrogen (N) deficiency then bump up the dose. When the plants get large enough they will be less sensitive to less than ideal conditions. For lights the babies need to grow into the light for a few weeks. I would start at 2 feet and watch them grow into it till you have about a 1 foot distance. For the fan, until the plants get larger have the fan give an indirect breeze. Depending on temperature and humidity the seedling may not be able to transpire/uptake enough water. Don't over water. Don't over fertilize. Keep the light at a distance which you can comfortably hold your hand under. Most importantly have patience and don't give up
only used a little mirical grow thourght i was doing every thing right the leaves started turning brown from the base up starting at the tip and edges and now there are only two small leaves left at the top i flushed the soil well and thourght they would come back. stems still green and healthy what do i do. is it lacking nutrients.
don't use mirical grow it has chemicals in it that just kill the plant any other flower it will help but ur growing weed, ha ha. and use a 150 watt hps to start out with for the first week or 2 and use a hps light with a larger wattage ofcourse and remember to check all the ph level the most important it should be about 7 and after about the first month it will go down to 6.5. good luck next time and just keep growing using all the crap i just told you and if they die they die u start over.
