I think that when I watered it the soil was compacted and becuase it wasn't warm enough to evaporate the soil just stayed saturated and the poor roots never developed..its a real shame. Im thinking of buying a heater and having another go but im not sure yett

Sorry to hear it, but don't let it discourage you from growing - practice on a few more bagseed, you'll get it!

possibly but how much have you been watering and on what cycle have you been watering. i have found less water is more to support strong root growth. im not saying dont water it but in a closet with temps of 65 with lights on may be to low to evaporate some moisture from the soil, so if you water it everyday the plant may be getting to much water, drowning the roots .

another idea is to add some warm white lights above the others just to add heat to the space and extra lights never hurt

I would have to agree... more light would increase the heat and thus evaporate the excess moisture. I only water my plants about every other day. I would also not water till the soil becomes dry to touch. I usually do starter plants for people and am doing my first complete grow. When I do the starter plants, I usually keep them till I have 3 sets of full leaves, then I sale them. this will be the first time from seed to smoke.
