Help!!!

I'm really new to growing - does this look any good and is it to early to tell if it's male or female?

that is way too early to tell and u need to put it into 12/12 to start flowering

Well Sdhall36,

Yes, you can relax cause it looks fine. Remember you can never have too much light or fresh air. You want big buds you need a big root ball which means big pots.

Looks good but if that is tin foil id think about an alternative
reflective material Mylar or flat white, if it is Mylar, my bad.

Hey Hall,

Is that a bag seed?

The genetics look very week.. Maybe it is just the light you are using.. The good news is, the plant is healthy.. but... it is weak and spindly looking.. the top leaves should be bigger...


make sure you don't over water.. the roots need air!

thank you for all you kind help and comments, here is a latest pic - I am using 4x150 watt compact flourecents and 4x60 watt of those horrible daylight bulbs.
Yes it is tin foil, prolly bad.
Is it natural for the bottom leaves to die off like that?

When u say daylight bulbs you mean flourscent right? because noraml incandesant lights (the regualr bulbs) are terrible for growing.

yeah those are the ones plus 4x inneficient 60 watt daylight ones also, (got those before I could get the cfls. (150 watt pure daylight CFLs)
The seed is supposed to be skunk #1 from holland - maybe I worry too much it's just the bottom leaves are dying a little.
I'm giving them 24hours of light and have a mild breeze cooling the lights and plants.

It's normal for bottom leaves to die off as a response to not enough light. So get better light and the bottom leaves will live longer. Eventually they do die off, but it shouldn't be so early.

hmmm, first off, i have 2 CFL on my plants and there growing nicely and very compact. The reason being is that the lamps are 1-2 inchs from the surface of the leafs....It seems that your plants light source is too far away since the internode lengths are long. Put the lamps much closer and you will see a great difference in growth. Get a desktiop lamp ($10), there great and very adjustable.
