I am awfully bad at growing. This is my first plant and it's only been a few days since i got it yet its dying. I dont have a ph checker. I'ts currently in a closet with 3 sliding doors, 2 of them open enough for air flow as well as an open window in the room.




Check picture for the soil i used.




If you need any more info please ask

Yes it's a 75w CFL and I had a fairly large fan going for the first two days. I stopped using it once it started wilting. and the soil is supposed to prevent under/over watering. only the first inch or two of soil is dry

What's up with people and miracle grow this year this is a case of nutrient burn so flush your soil.Don't feed hope they pull through. The wilting is due to lack of stiff cellulose you need to put a small fan on this plant so the stalk can strengthen.

Flushing will release more nutes and those water retaining crystal will swell up.

^ This is the problem with miracle grow. He still must flush and try dissolve as much he can the problem will just increase unless he's willing to transplant into a proper growing medium this not a watering problem.

Agreed, just water when needed and hopefully the burns will be minor... If you flush with copious amounts of water it will burn that little thing to shit.

You need to cut mg soil like 50/50 with coco or something else that's inert. Mg soil for seedlings I heard works good.

^ It's the federal governments plan to destroy are crops and stop amateur growers so they plant them in every Walmart knowing a new unexperienced grower will be walking around Walmart looking for a soil base and they will clearly go with the most commercial company and what is that......."Miracle Grow"!!! and the government makes a high nutrient base already in the soil so it will destroy our plants and let down new growers.
