If I had to guess the problem I'd suspect the peat pots you started them in.
I had problems with my plants failing to breaking through them so I don't use them anymore. Not sure if she will eventually break through on her own but if the root coils up then I would doubt it. I suspect that they need to be pretty wet all the time to allow roots through but weed likes it dry and the pots are pretty tough when they are dry.
I'd be tempted to scrape out the soil to look for roots coming out and if you don't see any then lift the peat pot and remove the bottom.
Got my fingers crossed for you buddy.

hey v if you dont recall a little while back i topped up my soil by tiping the soil out and filling up the bottom and when i did that there was a serious root system. also they how i decided to plant those peat pots, by looking at them and seeing if roots were coming through and sure enough there were so then i put them in the bigger pot so i know what to do now

Whats up DW. Its been a couple days since I've been able to check in on your grow. I'm sorry to hear about your plant troubles. I'm a noob, but it looks to me like overwatering. I'd say give it a few days without water and see if they perk up a little. I hope you're able to get this figured out, man.

Im gonna suggest you shoot for the rubbermaid, easy construction and easily accesible? Dresser you'd have to do quite a bit of construction Im guessing though it would be worth it. I'd say give the rubbermaid a shot first. Though thats an opinion,

True, enough. Then Id say definatley go for the dresser, or maybe an armoire? (ones with the double, or singular doors)

lunch i saw your post about you worrying about sodering your fan wires... what were you going to use a 12v adapter or a cell phone charger? all i did for mine what strip about half inch on the ends twist the positives and negs together taped them each up seperately then taped the whole thing together. works great, i think sodering is to much of a hassle and much harder to undo.

Sweet man, I was hoping I'd be able to do that, specially since I hate soldering. Chances are I'll use a cell phone charger, I got 2 old ones laying around. Thanks for the tip, you just saved me a lot of hassle.

Hey DW
How's the sprout?
Sorry I forgot you added the soil. My bad. Guess it's not that then. I would have gone with overwatering but the top of the plant seemed fine. Does it look better now it's drying out?

Hey Lunchbox. That's one small space man! Props to you for even trying. Hope you start a journal.

hey v ill post an update tonight it is looking slowly better its still growing at a reasonable pace but still alittle droopy a bit, i think it was over watering. ive let it dry out quite a bit now so i think that was it but there could still be something other but who knows ill put the update up tonight and you guys can decide.

Lol, thanks. Lets hope I end up having more space in it. I didnt really measure it, and If I aint got enough, I guess I'll have to build something for inside my closet.
