Well I decided to try and grow a couple plants, I used the moist paper tower method in a jar to get some sprouts them planted them.

First they were all planted in the same pot(only had one available), they got bigger and we got some more.

Planted one in the ground, and the rest in seperate pots. Pur ground plant dissapeared, so we were left with 3. Went out for the weekend and came back, 2 were dying. 1 left us yesterday and the other today.

Well we went out for a little while and came back to find that our nice healthy sprout was drooped over like it had just lost all strength in the stem.

This is our first time growing and I dunno what it could be from, any idea's. Here's a picture.

Sorry I couldn't get a more clear pictuer, my good cam is dead

it could have to do with the fact that youre trying to vegetate a seedling during the flowering season. just a guess though.

outdoor plant in a pot. I tried to experiment with all of them, outdoor in ground, got eaten. Outdoor pot in morning sunlight, didn't do too well. Outdoor in pot all day sunlight, did ok. Outdoor in pot afternoon sunlight, did really well.

My wife put in miracle grow transplant solution for some odd reason today, although the plant lived through the transplant just fine.

Whats the minimum (lowest wattage) that you can use that will produce?
My girls mom told us that we over watered it (she used to grow)

Well, first off it cant be any light. if your looking for low wattage, Florescent's will work, but thats if your cant get anything better. If you can try and get a HPS light. Regular house lights will keep your plant alive, but you will grow so slow and the weed will be extreamly crappy,

400 watt hps is the lowest wattage
but you need the entire set-up
go to a hydro store and they will help you
