First try at growing, lost 1 to under watering and the next from using Neem oil to kill the bugs/mites/flying kind too. So I have left 1 (white widow) growing very well, one of the original one died so I replanted another using the same named seed-it's really growing. I have been spraying 1/4 strength fungicide on the really sick one, it appears to be getting worse. There are some fungus knats - less than 10 - no obvious signs of fungus. How would I go about killing the knats and the eggs they must be laying under the soil?
In comparing my leaves to photo's of distressed ones on this site - it could be a calcium deficiency. Also, last week I repotted the sickly plant - it had good root growth but not sure of the color of the roots. Is it ok to pull the plant out of the plastic pot to check the roots?
I have a 4ft long light fixture with 8-T5 grow bulbs. Been using aired-out tap water with just enough all-purpose plant food (1/4 teaspoon per 3 gal water) to color the water. Feed with that once a week, plain water rest of the time. All suggestions welcome!!! - this is harder than I thought.
