Quick question for the pros :)

[WhiteIce]

Hey everyone! Hey I am new to all of this and have some questions. I have this one plant here and I think there is a problem. I only have these lights and the matiral that you see in the picture, so maybe thats not so good. I don't know what is causing the drooping leaves, but they seem to fan out during the day... I woke up this morning about 4:30am to see that they were back to before I moved them... They were doing fine yesterday :| . I would really like some pointers.

Thanks Everyone :thumbsup:

Plants do 'droop' when the lights are off, but if they are drooping while lights are on it normally means they are hot. Try putting a fan or something in there, jsut to spread the heat around and to thicken up the stems. Also, look towards getting either emergency blankets or flat white paint for the sides, that dark deep blue is taking a lot of light from her. There is an endless list of suggestions that could be given to that set-up, just look around the forums and see what you can find out.

I know the setup is really lame but it cracks me up... I will find something to line that with... besides tin. yea shes still in 24 hour light but those lights dont cause that much heat???

The way you have it set up, where its recessed in that tub, causes there to be alot of stagnant air i bet.
Direct a small fan towards it and maybe even put a hole in the side of the tub to exhaust air.....
or get rid of the tub for now. why do you need the tub?

check out what I did with my CFL's, might be something to think about.

there is a fan... moves air in there..... blows out the ex.... And the tub is for hiding... I really am not sure about what to do about the lights... No stand for them... running on low budget. shitty but yea. Thank you for your ideas. and I will check out your ideas

Thanks, learned everything from this site.

Are you going to do a grow log?

that soil looks like it needs some perlite or some aeration. also water it minimally because with that much soil and the size of those plants will cause the bottoms of the pots to get gucky and can cause root rot
