Hello all I am new to the forum and decided to finally sign up after reading all the posts I could for a month. I don't have experience growing mmj but I have gardened before as well as just completed reading 3 mj books from Ed rosenthal, Jorge Cervantes as well as 1 other that escapes me at the moment.
My first attempted grow was 7 or 8 bagseeds everything was going great they all germinated within 8 days, but there was some stretching due to inadequete lighting which I expected and actually wanted slightly this way later on in the plants life I could lst it easier and perhaps better. Well to make this long story a bit shorter there was mishap involving the air conditioner and front door creating a vaccum suction in the hallway. When the door was open it pulled the plants off the window seal onto the floor. I washed out all the pots resoiled and added perlite put them back because they still looked decent but then right as I put them up on the window seal the door opened again . So I threw them away after that because the liquid root booster and shock deterent didnt do crap but help kill them faster.
Fast forward 3 weeks and I am on my second attempt I now have 2 125 watt cfls and a 600 watt hps(the 600 watt hps I dont think I will use until the plants are big enough to leave from closet to the room floor. I planted about 12 bagseed 1 white widow x big bud(fem) 1 super diesel(fem) 1 superbud(fem) 1 cindy 99xline(fem) and then the free seeds were sleestack X skunk(reg) Royal queen fruit spirit (fem)
The bagseed germinated first and Initially I didnt think any of the bought seeds would germinate but they all eventually did and were looking good. I planted them a tad to far so I had to carefully loosen and take out about 1/4 inch of the soil (Fox farms ocean) The day after I brought them to the surfacethey were looking great. All of them seemed they would survive. The subsequent days the condition on most of them worsened and some of them shriveled to commical levels although they are still green except 1 which never fully burst from the seed and is yellow(burnt?) I want to know if I can save them. I have taken pictures to place on here for the communities examination. I would extremly appreciate any input as these seeds were expensive. I probably shouldnt of dug in the soil to retrieve the plants but I know the seeds have about 2 days of stored energy to reach the surface and if I didnt act they would of all suffocated under the dirt.
My thoughts on what could be the problem
Burn from the rooting coumpound
burn from the cfls
shock from removing the little seedlings from under the dirt to replant them above the dirt
Possibly not planting the taproot far enouugh into the soil
foxfarm soil to strong for seedlings
Please save my plants
