420..

if your plant is already 6-8 inches.. you are experiencing.. or shall i say, your plant is experiencing something we call.. STRETCHING.. it is not good and needs to be addressed NOW..

YOUR plant is stretching searching for light!

you need to get a Compact Fluorescent Light.. (CFL)
Ideally a 150 watt cfl. ( they sell these at walmart for $8.44 )

And you need to put the light within 2-3 inches of your plant for the next 7-14 days. Then move the light to less than 1 inch from your plant...


Leave the light on 18+ hours a day.. If you do not have a timer.. then leave the light on for 24 hours.. and get a timer..

stick it in the dirt.. NOW..

no the white stem is not GOOD..

You should get the light and some potting soil..
a 3 gallon pot would be NICE.
Get a soil that has perlite in it.. or add in 20% perlite.. to whatever soil you BUY..

so.. you need soil, perlite, water and a light..

: )

GO NOW...

i really wanna make a dank plant and im trying to make sure i do everything right

1) Read all the posts in the faqs except the ones that seem more advanced.
2) Do not over or under water
3) Do not over or under fertilize or nuterient.
4) Use as much light as you can afford. High Intensity Discharge is by far the best, but requires more ventilation.
5) Do searches and read extensively on important words like light, temperature, humidity, ventilation, nutrients, fertilizer...
6) Repeat often and you will become a master.

THIS IS THE EASIEST MOST RELIABLE TESTER I HAVE EVER SEEN.

it is the standard for ALL growers around the world...

the instructions are on the back... it takes 20 seconds to test your PH and it can be preformed by a 3 year old..

GET it.. : )

smile at a stranger....: ) cause there are no strangers HERE..

Well 420life,

It seems to me that you jumped into the game without a game plan? I know that you want to smoke your own weed for free but without the information on how to get there. You have started your seeds without any equipment to grow it properly lights, fertilizer, pots, dirt anything? Your going to have to read about growing extensively to be knowledgeable of the process then keep read to master the game. Yes, we will walk you through the steps but you'll have to do the heavy lifting can you feel me.
