Plant was doing really good outside on deck, but was growing above deck. Cop lives next door, so moved it to garage. Using compact fluorescent bulb and was watering daily. Was leaving light on for 12 hours off 12 hours. Started to really grow and seed. Yesterday was gone all day, so light was only left on for 6 hours. This morning went to turn on light and it looked like this... Help. This was my first try, up until now I had just thrown some seeds in a plant pot and watered. I am not sure if my pictures are going to show up, I am really a newbie!! but profile pic is what it looks like
Thanks

What were the temps in the garage and did you have any ventilation? What about a fan moving air around the plants?

Hi, Temp in garage was probably over 100 degrees and no I was not using a fan. Like I said in previous post, this is my first plant. I have threw seeds thru the years in a pot and watered, but they never did anything. This time I paid attention and transplanted to bigger plant when it was about 1 foot tall. Right now I have moved it outside with fan. Temp 91 Humidity 45%. I was watering everyday in garage and wonder if it got to wet. Thanks so much for your help.

I think that was the issue - heat stress. Over 100F is definitely way too hot and usually leads to the wilting you are seeing, especially if you don't have any kind of air movement around the plants. Next watering, add Superthrive, which helps reduce stress. Good luck.

I'd say over watering. thats my opinion. because it looks stressed and droopy. dont water it as much.
no when they look like that it means they need water asap, i bet if you pic up your pot its a lite as a feather, your soil has dried out due to the high temps and no water

maybe your right, but i cannot see his soil. if it is dry, then your correct.
if its moist. its overwatering.

and thats a male anyways. so dont devote your time in saving it.
