I'm growing (or at least was growing) about 15 plants. I was using 4 small flourescent table lamps (commonly found in american hotels) and they ranged from 1 to 2 weeks into their life. Yesterday, we started using miracle grow mixed with sucanat (pure cane sugar found in health stores, helps give plants a sweet taste, or so i read in high times. The day before we switched the flourescents out with 2 500w halogen flood lights, and the plants seemed fine. We also went from 24 hour lighting to 18/6. Yesterday, the plants had their 6 hours of sleep, then the lights came back on. This morning, however, the lights werent turned off at all, and when i got to the grow room (12 hours past time for lights to be turned off), all but maybe 4 plants were shriveled and lying on the rocks. What happened? I need to know who/whats to blame so I can fix this in the future.
Call me a sissy, but after all the money and time I have put into this project, I literally just sat down and cried. Help me, cause I ain't quittin.
EDIT: The Flourescents were about a foot from the plants, and the Halogens were about 4 feet above, cause they were hot as hell. did this contribute?
