heat light trash it if you want to grow. at least go get some cheap cfl's from walmart. heat is bad plants are cold in nature. as a grower we want the heat out of our light . that light is frying your plant. you can get a 150 cfl that gives you 2700 lumens that will work but not like an hps or m/h bulb, but it will work heat could still be a problem but not as bad as a heat light. Not to mention that light in the light spectrum is probly not were it needs to be but i dont know were it sits in the spectrum. that your prob dude

:bigjoint: your problem is the lamp....lol its too hot, plus i dont believe u r getting enough lumens for a "heat lamp"? but im not a veteran grower, so maybe you could but doubt it. watts? thats the wattage of your light ie 45,60,75,100,250,450,600,1000???? nutes r nutrients.... u know like gh( general hydroponics) AN( advanced nutrients??? heard of these? they provide your babies with the neccessay vitamins, food,yada yada. mediums are what u grow in, rockwoil soil ect.:-P
