Brutal man, I crashed and burned on mine as well. my poor plants fried from the roots and the lights I had them in, haha, but I learned a lot, and basic horticulture lessons is awesome!
Sorry for your loss, CRoN. I'm an indoor-growin' newbie myself and have just started my first germination. So I haven't even got far enough to make a mistake yet (but no doubt, I will!).
Were you just gettin' started with new sprouts or had these plants been up-and-att'em for awhile? Believe me, I'm gonna learn from your experience. From the hundreds of posts I've read so far in the Grower's Forum, everyone seems to agree how critical those first few weeks of life are: keep em' watered but don't over-water, keep em' fed but don't burn up your roots, keep em' under lights but don't fry em'....etc.... Damn, it's like this holy WEED acts like a fuckin' orchid when it's young! Hoping I don't get pulled away very far from my first indoor crop during the first few weeks. Don't want to get distracted.
Man, there's lotsa seeds out there. Good luck with your next grow!
Unlucky man,
Though like the guy's say 2 day's there surely must have been some other contributing factor to sudden death
Perhaps in combination with not enough water there was too much heat in your grow room or what ever! Some genetics can be very easily murdered in Hi temps and arid medium! Other's however love it and actualy do quite well in coping with these sudden fluctuations in enviroment. It stand's to reason as that's nature. I hope you have more success next time round don't be too dispondent and learn by mistakes "We all do".
Awhile back i had a friend who was doin my clones for me while i was getting my first grow started.I gave him White Rhino seeds and Sk #1.When i went to get what clones he had made from the seeds he showed me all the moms and clones. ARGHHHH.!!He lives in a trailer in the woods and went away 4 a couple days,when he was gone there was a couple of 95 degree days. The trailer was like a hot box..When he got back every plant was withered and limp looking.They never survived.So i gave them a 21 bong salute and threw them out,n started over-by myself-.The lesson i learned was 2 things,1 Make sure you have good ventilation to exhaust the heat from youre grow and 2 do youre own clones!
I get a sick feeling when that happens.
Its like everyone has different weening schedules with their plants dependancy on them...reminds me of that bit in trainspotting when the baby dies....freaks me out :/
I use a highly aerated soil.
If i neglect them for more than 2-3 days wilting will onset very fast.
Ive just spent the weekend absolutly wasted and just realised somehow one plant has missed its last watering. Lets just say i found her in the nik of time :/
