If you cover the plant with a clear bowl or something it should be fine in the cold, but if you want to bring it inside temporairly you can pick up compact flourescent lights, the ones that fit in regular light sockets that are spiraled between 1 regular daylight CFL a few inches from the top of the plant should be plenty of light for it to grow at that size but thick clay soil is not ideal for the roots. Ideally you want a light airy soil mixture that drains well and is not clumpy
Thanks man, I had to replace it out of that clay soil anyway. I practically shit my pants when I saw it today.. It isn't looking too good for the fact that somehow there were Thousands of tiny mites in the soil and all around.. FML
I also tore off the broken leafs, I don't know if this one is gonna make it..
So this is where I moved the plant. Is that light good enough until I find a better one? Thanks
The location won't be a problem, but unless that Dewalt is using a fluorescent bulb, it's not going to be very useful and will likely cause your seedling to stretch more than you want. Get a couple of CFL's on it as soon as you can, and keep the light as close to the leaves as you can without burning them.Quote:

Anywho, good luck!!
So I replaced the light with one of these lamps.
So far I am watering the plant every other day minimally.
It is a fluorescent white light lamp. Insanely bright.. I have two of them btw. Am considering putting both in but think that is too much.
If they are fluorescent bulbs then when putting your hand underneath the bulb if it isn't really too hot, you should be able to move the light a few inches from the top of the plant to really maximize your lumen output on the plant...Also there is no such thing as TOO bright...The more light the better, so long as you can control the temps like you'd like then you should be perfectly fine adding another!Quote:

while transplanting my two GFD (grape fruit deseil) i accidently tore a few baby roots that were stuck to the pot and i was unaware at the time..i was aondering if this would cause a tremendous amonut of trouble or stunt the growth of the plants...they are in the 2 week of veg. 18/6 with a 1000 light and are about 10 inches tall..will post some pics soon ...any advice would be great..thanks
I would have just planted the sponge with the roots intact....Quote:
