Patience...it may take another two weeks to recover after getting stressed as you did to it....shame, shame! ;) LOL! Don't panic yet! They have sometimes amazing resiliency, and can bounce back from near death experiences...it just takes awhile. Use an accurate thermometer near the top of the plants and keep it there always, and one elsewhere in the room/space...two zone digital ones are only 8-10 bucks. They are well worth the money.
Ck the lighting section for charts about how close to put your light

Glad to help ease your mind a little....you are basically re-veggin a plant and sometimes it can take up to a month to get everything completely back in veggin mode...you may see some strange looking single or 3 bladed leaves while this happens also, they won't even resemble cannabis leaves!...it's normal...again, don't panic! This is a very stressful process for the plant to go thru, but they usually make it. You'll know when they get back to normal. Sorry, yes, two feet will be good....you have plenty of time to read and learn...make the best of it! :D

Yep, just water em as they need it...they won't use much until they get going again, but just keep them from starving and drying out and wait it out...LOL! As stressful as it is for you, imagine how the poor plants feel! "Dang...that jack tried to cook us and then chopped all our hair off...wtf? :wtf:"...LOL!

ok so ill use a simply spy bottle for the time being water once a day its just shitty because all four my clones are now burnt and i want to get a good yield
also i have a temp gage and its between 25-30 deg
low humtiy
and a TON of air flow like almost tooooo much

:S2: Too funny, TJ. I agree with all you've said. They need time to recover and be all that they can be. :thumbsup:
That doesn't ease your mind when you're new to making Mother Nature do her beautiful work, lila. In this case patience is a virtue.
Best of luck to you and your little girls. :jointsmile:

Whoa...you didn't say ya had a 400, 8 inches away...those little tiny leaves in the close up should keep growing tho...the others....well...pray! You may even want to back that light up another foot until they get some leaves going again, too. Then 18 to 24 inches is as close as you ever need it. Is heat maybe an issue in that box?....I see you have a fan down low...is the light heat exhausted outside the box? Here's a tip on a very small box like this one....a fan pulling air out will create enough negative pressure to draw fresh air in, (usually enough to make them dance a little and that looks like about a 100cfm fan...yes, that's a lot!) so if it's blowing too hard (and if you think it is, it probably is...) try turning that fan around to blow out. If it starts drawing hot air down from the lights, move it up high and let it exhaust. That way it will draw cooler fresh air over the plants.
he he Lyn...I'm pretty sure they were sayin just that, too!:D

yea i know it was a stupid miss take. whatever ive learn from it. I have my light at 24" right now above my highest plant which is almost 7.5inch. Its really weird to just see the stoke so bare empty. Before like two weeks ago i had my light maybe 8-10inchs above my plants with temps in the 30-38 degrees, with the door on my cabit open. Now I have removed the cabit door and changed rooms. Added to out put fans to blow air out as well as one infront of were the door used to be. MAX air flow is def in my garden.
I wana say I have really bad grammer and spelling but fuck im a stoner not an english teacher:hippy:

few things i for got to mention
this will be basicaly my second grow room with these clones one room i had them in the temp got too high as well as the door wasn't able to come off
In grow room two the temp in the mid 25-28oc
the doors off to keep temp in that range
as well more fans
So I think with what everyone who has givin me there advice I should see a change within the next week to two weeks:yippee:

Anyone give me abit more info about this i was often sprying the leafs
TANKJR

It's spraying the leaves or foliar feeding....no need, stop doing it, it isn't needed...except maybe for small seedlings or clones that do not have a root system yet and you live someplace very, very dry...You can easily create more problems than you solve doing this "sprying" or spraying...can you say mold and mildew?...just water and feed them through the roots! In all things....Keep it simple! The more variables you add, the better the odds it will screw everything up! I have never sprayed anything on my plants ever, and they grow just fine...water when they need it...feed them when they need it, thru the roots and soil...learn to read the plants and they will ALWAYS tell you what they need! Also, all things in moderation...if you miss a feeding, or watering, do not try to "make up for it" by doubling the amount of nutes the next time...people actually do this!!!!!!!!!!!

alright, perfect, thanks for the help. Ill keep you posted i have noticed more growth very small but i have notice it.

Sure, ck out some grows with DWC...(Deep water culture or Does What dirt Can't) if you have access to 5 gal plastic buckets, like drywall mud comes in, it's not so hard to do, but it IS much different than growing in dirt, so read read read about it first...BUT, also Hydro is much less forgiving than dirt, a mistake can kill them all in a matter of hours....I would stick with dirt while you get and learn the DWC stuff...it may take a few failures to get it right and if ya got dirt going too, you shouldn't run out of meds...Hydro takes much more personal monitoring (and testing equipment) than dirt too, so make sure you can afford it, and be there to monitor things every day! Dirt I can leave for up to 3 days and it will be ok. Also mastering dirt first will make you better able to read the plants and react correctly when things go wrong in hydro...and they will, at first! Make a plan, get the needed stuff, and research it well and you should be fine.

you got a waiting game ahead of you. as long as you have green shoots somewhere it will grow. just go easy on the nutes they arent really going to be use a whole lot at this point.

im not a fan of superthrive. its not a nutrient its a vitamin and a hormone. use something like a veg formula that has low numbers like .01-.01-.01. and use sparingly until things start to grow (once a month)
