Thanks for your reply, your watering advice is clearer. I was using a mister bottle to water with, and perhaps I was only getting the top inch of the dirt wet before stopping, so i was just not watering enough each time.

My seedlings were about 2-3" tall and were in little red plastic solo cups with a few holes punched in the bottom.

Yes, my lamp is 1' x 2', with 2x 2' t5 double-bulbs (2G11 base) which are each 55w and put out 5000lum. I already bought two more bulbs which are identical except for being 3000k (for blooming).

I'm very intrigued by your SOG suggestion, but I have no idea how this would work. I actually do have exactly 3 seeds left. Would this entail blooming them early, while they're still somewhat small, so I'd get lower yield per plant, but more plants? How large would I let them get before flowering (and in what sized container) if I were to try all 3 under my one lamp? Would this take less time overall as well? Produce less weed overall? more weed? (care to give me an estimate range in oz? )

What about soil/nutrients? Also, do I need to get a Ph meter and worry about it the whole while, or can that be avoided?

Thanks!!
eccentric Reviewed by eccentric on . First grow, my plants died, help! Hi all, My seedlings have died after almost 2 weeks. Just 2 days ago, they were looking fairly healthy, I left them alone, without water for one day (I'd read that leaving a day w/o water helps roots grow - searching for water), and today they are completely dead (completely wilted, most leaves look dead). It looks to me like I'll be restarting, but this time I want to give my exact setup online here, get specific advice, and do what it takes to make sure nothing can go wrong. I'm sure they Rating: 5
