Well right now the one that died is gone (RIP ) but i replanted a seed in its place. The other 2 are recovering since I moved the light a little higher up and watered them more since the heat from the light is making them need a lot of water. The fan actually is TOO big of a fan as apposed to a wussy fan. Its a fan on a stand but i made it be a little further away on a low setting and its making matters a lot better in my opinion. A question I have though is if HPS bulbs get really hot, how do people make the plants not stretch toward them but still not get burned? I need to find a smaller fan taht I can put really close to my system so that I can move my light back but till then I'm gonna have to hope ths tretching still allows them to grow properly. Im thinking about just doing what a lot of other people are doing and get a few CFL lights. I also put the alluminum foil around the area the plants are in and I think that probably helped a good amount. How long does it normally take till the plant gets a second pair of branches? I'm doing everything I can to get my babies to keep on living.
Da1KrayzieThug Reviewed by Da1KrayzieThug on . Light problem Ok, I know I could have gotten a better light but for now I got stuck with a 120W "growing" light. It gets pretty hot so when I have it close to the plants they swivle up and die (1 out of 3 died in 1 day) But if I have it too far they stretch and tilt over. What can I do to make the stem get thicker? I already have a fan blowing on them and I think maybe it's helping a little. I appreciate any help given. Rating: 5
