If you just transplanted it, it may be in shock. And it sounds like you may be watering too much. Ive never watered twice in the same day and rarely even water 2 days in a row. Dont water it for two days, just leave it alone and see what happens.

Your light is too far from the plants, get that thing down almost touching the plants (1-3 inches).

What is the temp at the tops of the plants? You havent watered again have you? And dont transplant them again(didnt you just go from rockwool into a 6" pot? )

Sounds like you need to leave them alone, you cant help a sick plant by overdoing eveything.

If the stem is too weak to hold it up, stake it up, OR replant and fill soil up to first set of leaves, then get a fan on it, just to move it around slightly to make stem stronger. And like blackcoupe said, get the light closer. It is stretching for light sounds like to me.

They came from the cotton like cubes and i transplanted them into 4" pots, not certain how to find out the temperature at tops, but sadly they are still looking withering and falling over:( i hope time makes it better and doesnt kill em

You should keep notes on what dates you watered, feed, monitor temps, and so forth. Add a oscillating fan if you haven't already. Also look into more lighting. If your using flouros get that light 2-3 inches from the plant.

Ive never heard of anyone trying to heat thier grow area, usually its the other way around. Where you live? Alaska? You better get a temp gauge (you can get em cheap at hardware stores). I just spent almost $150 on fans to get the temps in my area down(cause it is important). Where I live its hot as hell, last thing on my mind would be adding heat. All i'd have to do is open a window

The temp sensor Ive been using is the type you set on a window, it has a wire with a temp sensor on it. Cheap like $15 bucks. Lets you know temps inside and outside. Mount that baby in your grow area and run the sensor wire to the tops of your plants, use a stake in a pot to hold it up or attach it to the light itself letting it hang down a bit close to the plants. Then youll know temps in your grow area and the temps at the top of your plants. Which in your case may not differ much cause of the light your using. You gotta have some basic equipment for a good crop, Id say a minimum of a temp sensor and ph tester

Thanx, i was also woundering, i was loooking at them and i noticed on some part of the soil on like wood peices or watever it looks like there is fluff on it like a mold or somtin its weird is this normal, and the plants are looking less droopy i used shish kabobs to hold them back up and i think the fan circulation i added helped a bit to, plus i removed the leaves that looked dead and 2 far gone

Ok, i have gone out and got the moisture tester, and its reading like 1-2 on all the plants, so i didnt over water it, its still withered looking but more upwards cuz of the sticks i used to hold it up, maybe it was not enough water? i am woundering is there something i was suppose to do to the foam cubes that the clone was in before putting it into the soil, cuz the roots had already popped thru the bottom i just wounderin if maybe i was suppose to soak cube or something
