After replanting my plants I decided to adjust the whole situation, and I need your advice on it.
I have each plant in their own container with a 15w white warming fluorescent bulb roughly 2-4inches above the plants to prevent stretching. I have a small fan on low to create a light wind. And the plants have the light on them 24/7.
The water leafs on 2 of the plants are dying. Is that okay? Will the plant still live if the water leafs die? Is there anything I can do to prevent the leafs from dying?
Also at this stage how much should i water and mist the plants? I dont want to kill them by watering to much.
Here is a few pictures to help you make a better assessment. Thank you .:cry:+bongsmilie=:mrgreen:

I cant see any pics, and I'm not an expert. But will try to help anyway.

If its the cotyledons you are referring to that are dying it depends on if there are other leafs.

If the cotyledons are the only leafs on the plant and they are dying then that's bad. If there are more 'true' leafs then its fine. They die normally after several nodes form.

Water when the plants needs it. A good test is to put you finger gently into the soil up to first joint of finger. If its still wet then its fine. Also you could feel the weight when its full wet and then compare it daily. Or a moisture meter is good until you get into the swing of things.

Misting can be done but its not necessary. Mainly done with clones.
