i just finished checking on her. she grew a bunch in the last 24 hours. the two new leaves are twice as big and a 3rd set has just started. and the first set is bigger too! and they are much perkier!

im psyched.

The leaves are like that (light yellow)probably because there was so much mud and dust on your plant from the start and the light hasn't gone through those places well to create photosynthesis in those parts of the leaf.
Clean leaves are especially important with cfls as they have a low output.
Now you have washed it all of you should see it pick up well over the next few weeks:blsmoke:

DISASTER STRIKES!!!

I just got home today after being gone for two days and i come home to what?

the lights fell down onto ice cube and semi crushed her. and apparently they were there long enough to fry every leaf except one. if you look close you can see there were four new leaves sprouted, so 8 in total. but the CFL god struck me down.

do you guys think she can survive this? ive already fixed everything and she is back under the lights that are more securely fashioned.

ill post pics in a bit

Damn dude that looks rough:cry:
It may yet survive though as one and a half leaves still look green.
Just look after her and see what happens:blsmoke:

i know man, i been checking her like every ten minutes. hahaha. i think she will make it through, and looking closer, they are not as burned as i thought, they are still slightly green, just curled up. there is very little actual burn. so im sure she will make it. but it sucks because its another big setback ya know. this plant has gone through so much. hahaha.

Rofl.... did your experiment include cooking your leafs with the cfl's ...

have a fan ?

why big setback ? u just started ..... first of all you need to loose the pepsi cans... i bet there boiling... how's the wind gona get to the lights ??? unless u put the plants on a fan... but that wont last long ... cuz your pots will be the size of the fan by week 4 ;)

Tell me that your gona take away those coke cans... thats just stupid in my opinion but i bet you'r gona get offensive, wich i dont want u too

so keep it going ;)

GAME OVER

So i checked her out today and took some pics. she is getting worse. Im pretty sure i should call it a day, what you guys think.

Is there anything i can do to save her? are 6 lights maybe too much, should i remove some? too much superthrive maybe? over watering? or is she just beyond help?

You have the lights about 2-4" away for seedlings with low powered cfls i think and you should have a fan blowing on them all the time.
I thought you said that this was the result of the lights falling on your seedling?
Your plant was fine before that as far as i can see anyway.
You had some sloweness due to dirty leafs probably and not to many lights:blsmoke:

In my opinion she is dead already and just shriveling up unfortunately.
Can you not get any more seed?
