This is my first grow (indoors) I grew one other time (once) outdoors back when I was 16 and my plants were stolen the day after a showed some friends (thats another story anyways)
Last week my plant was thriving (see my last post w/ pics)
Now my plant looks half dead and I dont know jack about growing, any suggestions would be helpful.
Im going to do my best to explain everything I have done, here it goes
1 - I noticed some GNATS on my plant last week so I grabbed my wifes bottle of Garden Safe brand Fungicide 3 products in one Its basically a fungicide, insecticide, and miticide all in one. I sprayed the plant down from top to bottom and soaked the soil. I also applied a layer of red pepper and garlic power to the top layer of soil
A day later
I applied another application of fungicide to the plant and soil.
3rd day
I still noticed GNATS so I sprayed the plant/soil again and I watered it to help the fungicide seep down into the soil.
4th day
My plant was showing brown tips and the bottom leaves were wilting. I say to myself OH ****, I BETTER STOP APPLYING THE FUNGICIDE!
5th day
I water again, this time to FLUSH out all the fungicide. My plant is looking worse
6th day
I remove 1 inch of soil off the top layer and water again trying to flush all this crap out of the soil. Plant looks the same
Today
My plant looks like total ****. Im thinking about transplanting it into some clean dry soil but Im worried I might put more stress on it which may completely kill it.
Grow room specs
3' by 3' grow box with 3 (100 watt compact soft white fluorescents) and 1 (100 watt red spectrum compact florescent) for a total of 4.
Average temp: 100/105 F
Soil: I stole some soil from my wifes plants and I mixed in some new potting soil
Ventilation: None, the grow box is not air tight
And here is the current pics...
I keep the plant 5 inches away from the lights
