get yourself a 30 watt cfl. for now that will do till your plants get a couple of weeks old. Hang it above the plant about an inch over the baby. get your self a fan. and you should be good. don't give any nutes till she is older.

Thank You Much Apreciated ( =

are you sure it was from heat? cfl's can usually be put 1-2 inches away without a problem. It could be nute burn.. are you using miracle grow soil?

no it was just some soil i bought from wall-mart..but i did put in 2 ( one inch) sticks of fertz...it was all fine until i moved the plant closer to the light ....thats why i was thinking it was heat.....either way is the plant going to live or should i start germinating more sees?

it'll live just be gentle with it. try moving the light a little further away and flush. and dont add any more nutes. But if it looks like its about to die you may want to add a tiny bit of superthrive (you can get it at walmart and other places) and that might help revive it.

thanks again any help is very appreciated

can anyone tell me if this light will work good for my single plant and if so how much should i space it away from the plant and how long should i keep it on

the light is GE Plant Flood Light, 120 Watt
