So inverted gave me one of his old grow boxes so I could use it for my seedlings, so i hooked up a couple 42w CFLs, well I come down to check on them today and one of the lights fell directly into the keg cup I was using and not only crushed 1 of my 5 ak-48 but it fried it to the point of no return too. atleast all 5 of my aurora indica seeds germed so atleast I have that to go on!

I am sorry to hear that. That stuff is no fun. I can feel you on this one. I had a similar experience only with a 1000 watt HID on some ak-47 clones that were 2 weeks into veg that I cut my self. Take care man. SECURE THOSE LIGHT!!!

Definitely not the first guy to drop lights on your plants, I've been there once or twice when I was still working with 48" tube fixtures(and duct tape, shhh).

Murphy's Law - If something can go wrong it will go wrong
Seriously though Lucid, I think we've all done something like this and its just unavoidable sometimes. At least it was only 1 plant

at least it fell while you weren't looking. I once had an entire reflector slip out of my hands and drop directly on my plant. I almost cried and I felt like such a fucking klutz
but now in retrospect it's pretty

I feel you, I was having a hard time getting these clones to root. Fuckers finally rooted and I transplanted them. When I went to move the cups I knocked into them and they both tipped. They also tipped so that the main stalks snapped in two when they hit the ground. In two seconds I watched two weeks of waiting go down the drain.
Losing plants sucks for sure, sorry for your loss there man.
