This is a random seed I got out of a bag of some good smoke. I germinated using the paper towel method. It's been 2 weeks since germination. I got the plant under a 60 watt cfl but ASAP I'm getting a Mh or hps. I have it inside a dresser i put in my closet that i took some drawers out .
Its been growing fast lately and every chance i get i give it good ole sunlight
Question: am I in the veg stage yet??
Any tips tricks or constructive criticism??

looks like you need to keep the cat away from it. as for a veg cycle it depends on how much light it gets or rather how many hours of light it gets. if its getting 18 on and 6 off thats a veg cycle.

I'm assuming your talking about that messed up leaf. I had the light to close to it for to long and it made burn spots on it and for some genius reason I decided to rip of the spots..and I have it to 18 on 6 off
Thanks for the info

you got a loooooong way to go before that becomes an issue. it wont show until it goes into flowering or shortly before though. you need to read around plenty on here about co2

Your not growing in the environment needed for additional CO2, what your giving the plant now is plenty. If your really looking to score big, start your FIM now, thats only if your serious about getting the HPS lights though.

Anyway, I don't use CO2 until after they start the actual veg stage, and your just about there. If you want to start with something simple follow the 3:1 sugar to yeast ratio with 5 parts water for 1 part sugar, you can use a 2 liter, grab a nail and hold it with pliers, heat the nail, poke it through the cap of the 2 liter bottle should be tight, run a 1/4" tube through it, put the other side of the tube at the base of your plant and tie in place with a bread bag tie.

This is Ghetto Co2, the real stuff costs about $325 to get started

Thanks for the info wat do u think is the best and easiest way to fim With scissors.. You should get yourself a book.. I personally like the Medical MJ Bible. It will answer most of your questions and act as a long time reference.
