Any ideas on why my plant looks Wilty?
I just need some opinions I think it might be overwatering

4 23w CFL’s it’s flowering rn. Constant temperature of about 70 during the day and 80 at night (sounds backwards, I know)

Looks like you should have added more perlite for drainage. You also need more light especially warm white if you continue using cfl. For $79 you can get a 150w HPS that will produce 4-6 oz. per every 4 months.

Couldn't agree more. I flower 4 at a time in a 32x32 tent under a 250w HPS. I do exceptional. Have buddies having hard time competing on yeilds running 600+.

What is your average yield with that 250?

I'm really unsure on a G per watt or anything but I have never had less than 3 and a half oz per plant. I top 2 times in veg and do some lst to mainline them to get as much as I can outta my space. On my next harvest I'd love to figure out my yeild per watt.

Yeah I have 5 white widow auto fems (seeds) I’m going to be planting once I get the proper equipment for a nice, professional-ish grow. Grow tent, proper lightning and ventilation, soil, etc. this was just sort of a test run and I can’t afford a lot right now so it’s definitely a budget grow

edit: To finish up this grow do you think I should go ahead and add some 2700k bulbs into the mix?

Yes you need more red than blue. or at least half n half. 4 warm 4 cool will make decent buds. You will need a fan too.

I have a sLightly larger portable heater + cooler and then a little personal desk fan I have up above.
This is what I was thinking for my setup:

(some are links)
Tent
Light
Filtration system
A few fabric pots
Fox Farm Ocean Forest mixed w/ 25% perlite
and of course all of the little extra things like a ph meter, better fans, etc.

Seeing I'm as inexperienced as I am, would it be worth it to get into nutrients and do some research? I mean that's the only way I'd learn but is it worth it do you think?
