here it is some pictures you can see some yellow on the top leave and and a black spot on the other.The soil looks constantly wet and full of tiny insects ,that could be the problem,probably.
I leave it to you guys I hope we can resurvive this plant.

Cheers!

I don't think the CFL's are too close.. I keep mine about an inch away and don't get burn unless they touch the bulb. As for the soil being damp all the time... STOP WATERING. That size of a plant needs water maybe once a week. Stick your finger in the soil up to your second knuckle, if you can't feel moisture then it is time to water, if you do feel moisture check again tomorrow. I used to over water due to just wanting to care TOO MUCH, when I stopped things starting going much better.

nitrogen 24%
potassio 13.3 %
Today I put more lamps 2x 6400 I put reflective material, a fan and a computer fan and I did some reflectors made of tin foil,added some perlite .
No water yet soil looks still very moist Let's see how it goes.
See pictures.

I hope this yellow leaves is not a big problem..

Thanks
