Ok i finally have pics of my plant to actually show you my progess. Ok i did one of the dumbest thing in the world i put some 300w hsp lights with bout 3000 lumes in a 42' tall 15' wide grow box. Ok when i got it i was thinking i need a heavier light spectrum to bud out my plants but it got to hot in the grow box and the temp was about 140 F and after even 10 seconds of me having the lights some of the leaves on top which i might add are the good ones BURNT OUT. Heres are some pics
. I know it looks kind of bad but I am trying to see what can i do to revive them you know bring them back to life because the whole plant is not dead here a pic of the whole plant i was just showing the burn results
j 008.jpg (61.5 KB). So half of it can still bud. RIGHT!!!!! Any way what can i do to bring it back to life or should I cut it off. My friend said i can use some stuff called H202 to revive it but i dont know. Tell me what should I do.

And another question.....

Heres my grow box
j 004.jpg (84.6 KB) ok as you can see it has 3 60 watts lights in there its not enough for the budding phase. So to not have burning again WHAT LIGHTS SHOULD I USE.

Wow. Wut made u think it wasn't gonna be hot with the light in there??? And for one plant in that small of a place I'm sure a 150w hps would work great. And ur buddy sounds like he don't know shit.

OMG 140degrees. Man i would top those, you will be able to save most of them. HID's are the best to use. If you are going to use a HID in a cab or tent u need to have a cool tube. Without one you will have temp issues. Even after you solve the temp issues it is still going to be to hot with a tubeless HID and you will see fluffy buds. Cool tube those HID's and your plant will thank you. Other than the burnt tops the plant looks healthy.

what you mean topping them does that mean cutting the bad ones off and if i do that it wouldn't do anything to the other leaves and there wouldn't be no budding problems. But i might use some led's for the budding phase people kind of suspicious

your totally fucked in the ass. you can cut the burned leafs off. but you will not make any product at all. I would toss it out start over.

Wait another day or two and then cut off ALL of the damaged plant. You are not completely screwed and you are not the first grower to nuke their crop by poor light placement and/or ventilation. Read, read, read, and keep on trying you will get there sooner or later. Happy Growing. :bigjoint:

definitely cut off all the f'd growth. they will bounce back though. let them start making new tops before you flower.

you have basicly burned your plant. You may be able to cut/top all the burnt and send it into bud. If it were me however I would cut the burnt and then butcher it for clones and start over.

Free Pro tip:

If your using HID lights you need to be In that grow atleast 4 times a day while the lights are on and atleast 2x while they are off with a green light keeping tabs till you yourself know how your lights in your room work with your temp and airfow control. If you cant expect things like this, spider mites, and nute burn.

As easy as it maybe to grow its = as easy to screw it up if your not on top of your shit.

You will never pull 2oz off that 1 plant.

I would suggest rocking CFLs or atm a 150 HPS MH You space is too tight for HID imo CFL will never burn you.
