Hi guys,

This is my first grow, due to my mum finding out about my grow room in my room.

I had to move it to the garage the only thing us had to be away for 2 days.
I finally set my grow tent back up on monday and got my plants back under the lights

During those 2 days they were just kept in my room.

Ive now had them under my 600 watt hps light for 2 days and some of my plants seem to be drooping.

I dont know if this was down to me leaving the plants in my room for 2 days or if my light is too far away.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Water is usually the problem. Give them a drink and see if they don't stand up in a couple of hours

if its had no water so far, a little won't hurt. don't drown it day in day out though, that's no good. Give it a little and see what happens. Like haight says, probably see improvement pretty quick.

Yeah just watered them now, it was dry but like 2 cm down it was pretty moist. Hopefully this helps.

Get a few CFL bulbs or tubes and use those for the seedling stage. That'll prevent them to stretch too. Preferably put them in a smaller container first too. The 600w hps is drying out the top layers where currently many of it's roots are, while it's too small to transpire and take up a lot of water further down the soil.

Get rid of the HPS until you are ready to flower in about 4 weeks.

Use Compact Fluorescent Lights for the first 2 weeks at least.

Sativied is telling you true.
