I need help growing. I have just started and im a little less than two weeks in. I have four plants and here are some pics. I have 3 15 watt floresence lights. I have been told thats not enough. I want an HPS but i can find a base or something that would plug into a regular outlet. I dont know if my plants are doing good or not. Could somone please help me...

the seedlings look good but you will want to seperate them into their own pots. The 3 15 watt fluoro's will be ok for now while their in their seedling stage but you'll want to get some higher wattage for veg and flowering stage. you can get a HPs light and just get an adaptor if your sockets dont have any ground plugs.

I would seperate them now when the root mass is small and they are not tangled together. just use a spoon and scoop the seedlings and their roots out and plant them in their own pots with some moist soil.
Also i should mention if you are unable to get a HPS or your on a tight budget you can look into getting CFL's (Compact Fluorescents) they come in many wattages and are easy to find (home depot,lowes,wally world...) I once grew a successful crop with just 4, 45 watt CFL's the yield was not huge but it produced bud : )

I wouldnt have put all those seeds in one pot. Each plant wants it's own pot just like every human wants it's own body lol. Damn I feel sorry for siamese twins

I agree with what this person says. :thumbsup:
You'll want to seperate those little fellas as soon as you can, or like said, the roots will become tangled in the soil and the plants will stunt.
One of my very first grows I vegged and flowered under 65W of light. It was in a tight space and I didn't get a whole lot of yeild, maybe 4g's at the most, but it was good exp. and did produce smokeable greens, so I was damn happy.
Good luck!
