Is my plant hopeless? Easy fix?

[gunoges]

My first grow was/is in a Space Bucket with 4x CFLs that is ending in a 2.7x2.7 tent with 200w citizen cob. That's looking fantastic.

Then comes this White Widow.

Her lower leaves have been a little brown and crispy for about a week and a half now. I tried flushing her with PH balanced water, using Cal Mag. Nothing seems to be helping. She's only been fed once. She's very fragile. When I water, she will sometimes fall over. I am guessing the root isn't too good.

She's been in the red solo cup for 26 days. Any ideas?

eeek, what did you do buddy

I know, right?

I am wondering if maybe they had too much room/light. I had them in solo cups in a 2.7x2.7 tent with 200w cob at about 40%.

I had one lik that recently, I missed it when I watered and it was the closest to a CMH. It did bounce back but it was a male anyway, it is a lot of stress on the plant it may recover but it sounds like you don't have much room if it doesn't. I would pull it and start over.

Tell me about your COB, how do you like it where did you get it. I am going to upgrade after my next grow and am still researching.

This is the exact one I got. I got it pre-assembled because DIY scares me. http://timbergrowlights.com/200-watt-citizen-clu048-square-framework/

So far, so good! My first grow is loving it!

i'm kinda thinkin the same, either the light is to close to it, or because its a seedling to powerful. Maybe back the light and move to cfl's for the time being, thats if you have them, you mentioned a space bucket didn't you?

Yep, that's exactly what I did! Put it in the space bucket. I planted another one at the same time and it is doing better. Hoping that will help it bounce back.

it should, from my reading i know with seedlings or sprouts those lights need to be way far away from it, with the cfls you should be safe for a while especially while it vegs for ever how long you gonna do it. Really like the cob setup, wonder if it would to much with cfls, hmmm.....guess i got more reading to do

I am thinking that I will use the space bucket for seedlings/early vegging and then eventually switch to the tent mid veg or start of flower.
