Well first off fix the soil situation.
You need to take the plant out of that pot and add soil to the bottom before returning it, so that the soil surface is very very close to the rim of the pot.
Any soil that you use should have lots of perlite in it and no peat (with the exception of ProMix BX which is acceptable).
For all that other stuff, just do a bunch of reading...

Well she looks like she trives in the soil shes in. After all the plant is a weed. Weeds grow everywere? But its worth to try.:thumbsup:

Okay, before we continue.. let's get rid of that transparent pot.. or at least cover it up with foil or something to keep the light out. Root's don't like the light much. Then we'll talk some more :p

ha, es, we're givin you a hard time, eh? lol

cover the pot with something that'll keep the light out. then, get some light on that plant; atleast two 23w cfl's. cool color is best, but the standard cfl (warm) will also work. keep the light less than six inches from the plant, and that node spacing will diminish in your next sets.

lookin good :thumbsup:

Please tell me that pot has drain holes in it.
And it should not be clear.
What's wrong with ..um.. a real planter?

Still growing strong.
Here we are again. And we have made some progress.:thumbsup:
I've bought a growlight.Very nice and i'm very pleasd. I'va allsow re-potted her into a bigger pot wich is self watering and thats nice.Now I don't pour water directly onto the soil,butt down a toube that leads the water to the bottom container. And now she (i don't actually know that its female) obtains the amount of water she needs byherself. Genious!
And I have a question:

What should the pH be in the soil?
How often do I fertilize?
Is this a nitrogen loing plant(yes I know all plants need nitrogen,but some plants more than others)?

All we need is love:hippy:PEACE:hippy:
