Lights To Close?

[Kornbred]

Think itll live if i keep letting it dry?

[D.A.A.S.69]

Probably to much water.

The one that seemed to stop growing for a while is starting to look better and the one that was doing really good is still dying...

Idk if I have ever had one dry out all over. I have had some lower leaves seem to dry out from not getting enough light. Maybe someone else will come along who has had the same problem and knows more.

[Kornbred]

One plant is growing green again but the other is seeming to dry out everywhere and its def not lacking water.

[Burny]

I would say your lights aren't too close. They probably need to be as close as you can get them without burning the leaves. I agree with Canuck your plants probably need more light.

I have an led 1550 lumens daylight.an 800 lumen led bulb from the potting section. And just got a 65 w spot-gro light and a d20 f 18.

[Burny]

What kind of light bulbs are you using?

[Kornbred]

Gotcha. Thanks man.

pH is important - should be around 6.0. If water is at say 5.0 that is 100 times more acidic than 6.0

[Canuck147]

Don't need a tester - go to a pool/spa store - buy some Litmus paper. It's very inexpensive.

[Kornbred]

Don't know. Trying to get my hands on a tester atm.

[Canuck147]

Okay - how about your pH?

[Kornbred]

I have a 1550 lumens daylight led light. An 800 lumen led. Recently bought an actual grow light 65 w spot-gro. And hung up a f20t12. Both plants were doing great until about 2 weeks ago now and theyre both about 3 montha and was using only the daylight and 800 lumen leds. But i had them really close as well.

pH is a big deal - what kind of lights are you using? Plants look like they need sunlight - are your lights for growing or for reading?
