Usually caused by overwatering, of course the second cause could be underwatering. I guess we would need a little more information, can we get a little help here? VV

I am a new grower and don't know how much lighting i need. My closet set up is 6ft long x 2ft wide x 8ft tall. I am looking at two 400w HPS/MH from HTG suppky since my closet is longer than wide or should i go for 1 1000w light. I read on this site that those light movers are a good idea. Could i get a 400w light and a mover and be okay with my room size? with this size of a room how many plants should i be able to grow? this closet is located in the bathroom, it has a door, but am wondering if steam from the shower will be an issue.
thanks for the help

I just bought a hydroponic set, 250 watt hps light, a bucket system, and I have 2 iconic breezes and one fan in a closet. I have failed to acquire a hygrometer for my grow space. Any tip for my grow room?
Also I have two germinated seedling that have root rot in the early stages. One has a white-yellow root while the other root is shriveling. What do I need to do to save them?
I believe I have a temperature problem. I only water them once to twice a day. The growing medium is rockwool cubes. I have previously used the rockwool cubes to start germination but failed and reverted back to plastic bag germination. What advice is best giving for first time attempting to grow? I have limit money resources and need household items to fix my plants problems. Currently the rockwool cubes are sitting on my window ledge.
Should I use the grow light instead of sunlight?

Stop right there, before you go any further. Lets start with the space you have. If we use our 1 plant per square foot rule that is a maximum of of 12 plants. If you are not planning on starting seeds every time some of that space will be for clones, lets just pretend they take 2' of the long, that leaves a 4' by 2' space. One 400 watt hps will do a dandy job.
The light mover would cost as much as a second light and no you would not want a 1000 watt light.
You have some research to do, you will need good air movement into and out of that small of a space. The steam from the shower should be pulled out by your bathroom exhaust fan. VV
Uhhh...... we are going to need a little more information about your grow room first??
Probably need to quit drowning them.
Ok, what is the temperature??
Now I know you need to quit drowning your plants. Rockwool holds more water than any other medium you should be watering it about once every three days or so, only after it has dried out enough to let the roots get some oxygen.
Well.....??? It really won't matter unless you stop drowning your plants. What does your research tell you the rest of us use?? I think you have some reading and studying to do, kinda like Abe, on your own and stop watering those plants. Do not water them again until they begin to perk up and then you want them moist, not drowning. VV

Hi, i have my plants 12/12 from seeds, its only about 4 1/2 in. tall, but was wondering what nutes i should put in it since its flowering and all, its 24 days old and im thinkin its a little to early for nutes... i saw a Big Bloom at lowes and probley gonna look around home depot, and can you just grow mj without any nutes at all? if i could just get some advice on any kind of nutes for flowering that would be perfect, thanks

I would use flowering nutes for flowering if it was me. Yes it is possible to grow marijuana with out any nutes. Course your plants may only be about 4 1/2" tall by the time they are 4 weeks old. I suppose that could be a combination of no nutes and going to 12/ 12 from seed.Hi, i have my plants 12/12 from seeds, its only about 4 1/2 in. tall, but was wondering what nutes i should put in it since its flowering and all, its 24 days old and im thinkin its a little to early for nutes... i saw a Big Bloom at lowes and probley gonna look around home depot, and can you just grow mj without any nutes at all? if i could just get some advice on any kind of nutes for flowering that would be perfect, thanks
I am really confused here, you read enough to decide you needed really short plants, not enough to know when to start using nutes??? Thats kinda like taking a knife to a gun fight, your plants don't stand a chance. You are giving them about 2/3 of the light they would get naturally, they are almost 4 weeks old and you haven't feed them?
What is it we are trying to accomplish here, no yield? Yes there are folks that go 12/12 from seed, they know what they need to do to feed their plants though. If you want to be successful with this you will want to visit a HydroShop and get some decent nutes.
IF you happen to be using Miracle Grow time release, you may be ok, Garden Knome did it, he didn't go 12/12 from seed, he did not add any nutes to the soil, it was not his first grow. VV
Frost will do it. oh you don't want to kill it, my bad. Treat it like you would treat your self if you had nine months to live, why stress it any?? I suspect it cause your not giving it any decent light? and you think putting it outside it will do better because of the sunlight? Get serious or go ahead and kill it now, you wouldn't be harvesting an outdoor plant until about October anyway. VV

How long do you think it would take to tell the sex of a plant thats 12/12 from seed and about a month old... Its under a 400 watt hps. I'm gonna start it on big bloom in about a week
