Yeah, HPS isn't the right spectrum. If you want to use a HID, metal halide is more appropriate.

Flouros are really nice for the seedling stage.

Oh yeah, for clones, before they are fully rooted, it's best to keep them in diffused or indirect light. But again, flouros are appropriate.
stinkyattic Reviewed by stinkyattic on . Plant is dying, absolutely no idea why. Something's wrong with my plants, and frankly, I don't know how can I help them. I checked all typical growing problems, but I don't think any of these apply. I am stumped, one of my younger plants already died, and the one left is getting worse by the hour. The plants are visibly drooping, drying up, and shriveling. Leaves are green, save for the two small yellow shriveled-up leaves that can be found at the bottom of the plant.
