My boyfriend and I were given these clones by a friend a few days ago. Quite obviously, they're sick. We're both growing noobs and have no idea what we're looking at or dealing with...

Any suggestions? I would appreciate it so much, heh. We've had them a few days and they haven't grown or changed at all... I'm a little worried.

What kind of light is that? If it's just a regular household light and bulb, your new kids are gonna grow very poorly. If you can get a hold of a fluorescent light, your plants will do much better, especially if it's "T5".

Also, the left one looks like it has some preflowers on it (maybe), so if those were taken off a flowering plant, they will take longer to switch back into veg/grow mode.

It's a CFL :). How do I find out if it's T5? Also, how long do you think it will take before it switches back to veg?

It'd say it on there somewhere, but they're usually sold as grow lights. The light you have is fine for now.

If it is already flowered, can take around 1-2 weeks to go back. I could be wrong though, and they could be in veg. Either way, keep 'em damp and give 'em some light: 18 hours on, 6 off.

Alright, will do c:. We've been doing 12/12 :wtf:... thank you for telling me otherwise. Also, it's a 2700K 20W CFL... is that enough or should we put another one on them?

2700k is on the red side of the light spectrum, which is good for flowering. 6400k is on the blue side, and good for veg.

If you invested in a blue spectrum cfl, you'd see better growth during the veg stage, but it's up to you.

Best thing to do is read as many related posts you can and make your own mistakes.

The plant I'm flowering now was originally supposed to be my Mom plant, but from all the clones and cuts I made, it has turned into a real bush, and perfect for flowering.

Good luck with your plants, eh!

as easy said they need to go back into veg can take any were from 2 to 4 week to get over the stress. iv seen it b4 once they start to veg you will get some funny shape leaves at first, but they will pick back up trouble is once a clone has been through that much stress the end results wont be as good if u can get more clones get rid of them an start again. if you cant they will be good for practice and if they get the love they need you should still get a good smoke :) also looks like some sort of burn (i might be wrong) have they been give food because all they will need is water and maybe a drop of superthrive (stress reliver) i would leave it a few week first . its hard to tell just by lookin at photo and not knowing wot they bin through. heres a few tips that might help first make sure the lamp not to close (to hot might be why there a bit of burn?) also make sure there some holes in bottom of cups so water can drain out if soil to boggy the roots will suffer. feel the weight of pots wen they get light feed with just water untill you get a little run off (make sure if in saucer they not left stood in water) keep um under 18 hour light, after a few week give them a drop of superthrive (1 drop a liter is fine) keep a eye on new growth as i said you will get some funny shape leaves at first try keep the enviroment stable 18 hour light with no interuptions and temp around 20-25c once they settle in they should start to pick up i hope this helps and your girls get better sorry for spellin mistakes miss spent youth lol give them time amd they should be ok good luck from over the pond :)(england)

Wash the dirt off them, and put them in a clonex solution, bubble style, till they are healthy again.,4-6 days.
