I remember when I was using SILs and I cooked/light bleached a couple seedlings.
I remember that I set my 5-bulb splitter at 21" above the seedling and she was fine.
So I used my new light meter to get a measurement at 21" below the 5 lights (800 lumen, 10 Watts each), and got a reading of around 6000 Lux.
It's the same reading I'm getting with my 4 two foot long ceiling strips at test current about four feet above the plant.
I'm really hoping for a 1 pound plant this time !!
Hey PC, probably stem rot if you were spraying them too frequently at a young age, hard to bounce back from that. The new plant will definitely be the quicker solution. Keep at her man
Yep overwater or ph troubles. I did notice it myself that if I spray a lot daily the soil gets kinda moist. And till the morning the humidity works its way to the top of the soil, then you spray again so the root sits in very wet soil.
Maybe a humidifier would be better. Or spraying around the pot, if you can put a tarp or something. I have a (HDPE) plastic tray in my growroom and I mostly spray in it and I avoid the top of the soil when they are already damp enaugh.
I would say you can help it but letting her dry, maybe raise temp or ventilation a bit if you can and also maybe by using a wood/bamboo skewer to bore some holes around it in the soil. But only stab the soil straight down, no lateral forces (so roots are mostly untouched).
Maybe you can save it, but the recovery time will be a loss.
Good luck.... and thanks for posting the disasters as well as the sexy bud shots - really helps newbs like myself to see some of the things that can go wrong!
