I am growing four Bagseeds right now underneath two 125 cfls I have been watering them every two days and keeping light on them 24/7. If I had pictures I would show you but I don't sorry, One of my plants is starting to lean over really bad, it is a little stretched but i tied a small stick to it and held it up. The leaves are starting to droop really bad and I don't know why. They are only about a week and a half in the soil.

Week and a half del...

How often do u water them Wj? If ur leaves are drooping on young plants it's usually due to overwatering or high temps....

.... also, u say they're leaning. I'm assuming u mean the whole thing is more or less trying to tip over, SOLUTION- GET A FAN. A nice steady breeze is essential in the beginning to develope a nice strong thick stem.

yea and only water when you can stick your finger down in the soil a few inches and feel it's dry, not just every couple of days

Ok thanks guys I thought it might be because of over watering but I have three others and they are doing just fine, I water them all at the same time. My lights are about 2 innches away from them, and it doesn't feel too hot I will have to check, They are coming up on two weeks old If you don't include germination. Could it be because of the quality of the water?

are you letting your tap water sit out for a day before using it? you want to wait at least 24 hours so that the chlorine in the water will evaporate.
