Is this plant healthy?

[philipg]

I was told by a friend that this plant was dying and wanted to get others opinions?

Technically everything that is alive is dying, but your plant looks fine

Looks like it's reaching up to the light... I'd have to say it's growing just fine. BUT Bbcchance is right.

Do not follow any advice this friend might give you in the future.

Actually I see a bit of curling. Be careful how much you water it.

Give that friend a " Dick Punch " for trying to be funny .... She looks fine however ...
Your container is a bit short changed on volume of soil.

Plus perlite

 

[KryptoBud]

Depends on how big you let it get and the wattage of the lights. If you repot it at some point add some perlite or something for drainage.

Also is 6 cfls ok for this 1 plant?

 

[philipg]

Thanks yeah I've been advised on getting perlite. How does it work on helping my plant? I'm new to all this so not really sure.. My cfls are all 26watts each

Roots need oxygen, perlite allows the soil to dry sooner after watering and stops it from becoming compacted. The roots need a wet/dry cycle. Over watering or having wet soil all the time is probably the most common mistake newer growers make.

 

[ganga gurl420]

No. Soil can be dry on top but soaked under drowning roots. The easy way is to get a moister meter (10$) or only water when the container feels light.
