Hellow hello everyone

My ladies went into flowering over the weekend. I have been in and out so I have not had a chance to look at them until today. My problem is I forgot to raise the sodium light.

My tallest plant is almost 3 feet and smallest is about 2.5. The bulb may of been 8 to 10 inches from the plants. My leaves have mostly all turned brown and nasty. I cut the really bad ones off but more are falling.

The plant itself looks healthy but the leaves are doomed.
Will my ladies make it?

Should I water them like no tomorrow...start over... put back into veg. grownth....HELP
Hydro grow has gone wrong.

1st time my light ballast went out on me durring flowering. Killed them

Now after 2 months back the clones from the 1st time are in flowering. Now I burn them

its up to you, if they dont look like they will recoop, you should cut your losses and start over. I use hydro and my plants get like maybe 5 - 8 inches and are ready to flower in about a week......oh yea but wait you will have to clone right? so this will set you back like 2 weeks if you work fast.


its sucks making a big mystake twice man.l my first grow was destroyed in the forth week of flower and i had to start all over i was soooooo pissed. but twill all be a memory on harvest day, stay strong my friend

also theoretically if those plants were lost, couldnt you just cut the top part of and start flowering the same plants. also if you just started flowering and they are already 2ft and 3 foot, those things are gonna be way too big cuz they are going to triple in size. i flowered my bb at 8 - 10 inches and they ended up almost 6 Feet!!!!!!

Well they are all pretty tall. Some look better than others. i have 6 total.

So if I flower at 8 inches the plant may flower up to 6 feet tall?

I have a grow cabinet. So right now I moved the light the highest it would go. So about 17 to 20 inches from the plant.

Total height of the cabinet is 72 inches.

Same thing happened to me (burned plants badly and thought they were doomed). I cut off every leaf that was 20% or more damaged. It took a couple of weeks and they were back bigger and better than ever - and to top it off - this happened three weeks into flowering!

So seems I have some options

Keep with it and see what happens.
Cut/top the plant and keep going.
Start over with the clones that may be 3 or 4 inches tall.


Also about trimming. How many branches or main branches should there be. I just let the plant grow...not sure if that is correct

So I can either...

Keep going and let them grow

Cut them down and see if they keep growing

Start over with the clones that are maybe 3 or 4 inches tall.




Im trying here ppl. Please help me out. Lost on what to do.
