these plants are about 3weeks old and I have a problem they are starting to wilt and some are falling over... ive since tied them up but are discolored a light green and one leave has folded upward and is very dry to the touch. ive been watering alot and think it may be rot. I use fox farm oceanic 100% my Ph is around 7... ive added lemon juice to the water to lower it. but it didnt do much. Ph is still 7... any suggestions my room has minimal circulation, i do have a fan dirctly on them, high humidity and is approximatly 85 degrees, hot, and wet....anybody who can help, much appreciated. my first time

i think so.. i live by a river, water tastes like chlorine and other not so nice things kind of brownish... i let it sit for 24 hours or so to let it evaporate not sure if it helps

I was thinking of just using the water from the river, to be safe, would that help? im up north and its not frozen yet but may be soon

if you have a water softener the salt it adds will cause t

let the soil dry out before you water again. I would get some kind of filter if your going to use river water try to get your temps down around 75-78 you might reduce the light for a week and let them growa little. I use cfl's for the first few weeks before the hot lights.
