i have had my plant, Margarit for alittle more than two months now and everything has been great I have been using rollitup for most of the grow, this being my first. I went to work today and just had a pretty good freeze in my area and i put a space heater in the closet and the door was cracked open, I came home to a closed door and to see that my leaves that were green full of new growth had wilted still very green but just wilted. I hadnt watered my soil in 2 days just leaf feeding. This all occured with in 3 hrs. Is this the problem too much heat or should i be worried and need to anything else?
BTW i fed her and i will have pics soon, but the two kolas (topped it) growth nodes (tops still are very green and reaching to my 150 watt HPS and couple CFL's) Also i am taking about four clones tomorrow just wondering if someone could help out a first timer, and not to mention beautiful margarit! thanks for the input...

The heater probably sucked the moisture out of the room. No worries, if the leaves are still green she probably just needs a good watering. Hope to see picks soon!

Thanks for your response, wanted to let you know that margarit recovered just fine. she lost 30 or so leaves but I removed most of the damaged leaves. She looks great again now and I put her in to flowering a little over a week ago. I also took some pics so you didnt waste your time responding to me. the quality isnt that great but my first as you can see inexperienced grow, but I learned so much and am going to be taking clones this week when my cloning kit arrives. also I included a couple of Kaya my snake.

lol! I had this problem at first as well.

If you want to put pics on a responce you click the 'reply' button at the bottom of the thread. When you see the box your text goes in scroll down till you see the title that says 'additional options'.

Click on 'manage attachments'.

Then you click on the button that says browse to look for the pics in your comp that you'd like to put up. DON'T FORGET TO CLICK UPLOAD ONCE YOU HAVE SELECTED THE PICS. WAIT UNTIL IT IS FINISHED UPLOADING BEFORE YOU CLOSE THE WINDOW.
You can only do four at a time. :D More=another post

well here are a couple close ups of my 9 days in to flowering buds. She is looking great and growing too fast that is why you will see strings trying to pull her burning kolas further from the light. I had to manually resize my images in order to post them so it took me some time but i will get more up soon.

:shock:
Wow, she does look like a big girl, what a catch!
Just a thought, some of the pics make it look like the plants were wet when you took the pictures, are you misting while the light is on? Cause that's a no-no, and can lead to burning. (I did it too at first.) :)

i was wondering i have 2 100 watt HPS lights and then two 100 watt soft white bulbs that put out 1700 lumens a piece is it better during flowering to only leave on the red spectrum HPS rather than all four on? I also heard that soft white but out more red spectrum than cool white bulbs? any one know if i am right on this?
