Default My plant...help
This is my very first grow andI think my plant is bout to die, i think due to a lack of light the bottom leaves died and the plant isnt looking so good overall, the temps in my room are always above 80, maybe 80 at its lowest, the humidity is usually in between 60 and 65 percent, im using mg moisture control

any help would be apreciated greatly, thanks in advance

your plants wont die under 23 watts but you do need to get more light as soon as possible ..your bottom leaves could be ph..or nute defects try giving nutes to see if your yellowness goes away ..also 2000k - 3000k is good for flowering...4500k-6500k good for veggin so start off with higih kelvins and when you want to flower move to somehting lower than 3000k more light the better

You need nitrogen and water. Nutrition and water. Yes more lights depending on the space it is in. Some people on here upon adding more CFL's ended up burning their plants. You have to gradually bring in the lights so they get used to the heat and you need to be able to maintain the same temp as you have and humidity. So it is good to have a fan that blows fresh air in and one that takes air out.

I think you have a problem with the light spectrum, the color of your light is very very white or a little yellow? For growing you new a CFL with a cool white color, and for flowering a yellow color CFL.

Another thing i noticed is my plant isnt growing anymore ever since i transplanted it to a bigger pot, should i just force it into the flowering stage this early?
