I would think so, but hard to see is it all brown and shriveled or is there still some green? Did you let the rock wool dry out or lights too close?

grorite · Oct 17, 2012

looks like it just fell over prop it up and get a fan blowing to make it sronger

Chinity · Oct 17, 2012

the light is a little bit slighty on the right side. The plant over reached and fell I think. Anyway how do I go about propping it up? Its still green and all.

what you got for light from the looks of how stretched it is you either need more or move it closer prop it with anything i use a toothpick and a peice of pipe cleaner to secure it to the toothpick

toothpick for propping, with a lil bread tie action if needed

just make sure not to secure it to tight will choke the lil plant out

Get closer with your lights, or stronger lighting.

I agree with ImChucky. Read the sticky on the main page "replant those stretchy stems" (it's easy)

Wrong light spectrum.Give them plants a week of Strong blue light.

PopTop · Oct 17, 2012

Looks as if the other one is stretched also, shouldn't he be using cfl's in this stage of development ? if you are then bring the kights real close the cfl's don't put out that much heat and won't heat burn em. jmo

Haven't use a fan yet. Thought it has to grow stronger to stand a fan? Im using HPS lighting doing 12/12 from seed.

the fan is what makes it strong thats your prob that and light may be to far away

ps dont blow the fan directly on it oscillate it around the room or if its a no oscillating fan blow it twords a wall

Dang another 1 fell down, the 2 toothpicks didnt hold it. So I have 2 dead plants right now =(. Gonna start all over again I guess.

grorite · Oct 18, 2012

before you start again atleast figure out what went wrong this time or you may run into the same prob good luck

While you wait for more to pop don't give up on these. Lower those rockwool cubes and get hydroton over it. Next time consider using horticultural grade pumice. Available even at Wal Mart. It's smaller granules and supports weaker plants by mounding it around the stem. Rinse the hell out of the pumice before using in hydro. Excellent medium.

Also get fans going. Almost as important as water and a place for roots.
