this is my very first grow, so be easy on me :). anyways i have a plant thats about maybe 6 or 7 inches tall with four nodes on it. i'm pretty sure its an indica strain. i've been growing in my closet for about a month now with one small, low intensity floro bulb (the kind you find on a simple table lamp or a ceiling fan lamp) if i were to force flower it now(if i even can) how much bud can i expect? how much can i expect with a plant thats about a foot tall and 6 or 7 nodes on it?
1-14grams.... if ur lucky. but guessing yeild is well like a guess.
wow really? ok then. also, is it even possible to successfully grow a plant by using just a low watt floro bulb? i mean it seems to be working fine for now. i've got a small fan blowing gently on my plant, and i've got foil on the bottom and the sides of my grow space n so far my little plant was able to grow to almost about a foot. will it continue to grow this way well into flowering? or is there some kind of critical period where i have to switch lights?
got a pic up of my lil plant and my ghetto set up. the dying leaves at the bottom happened when i underwatered:( (for fear that i might over water it. kinda ironic, huh?) the top leaves seem to be doing just fine though, they're pretty healthy. anyways, judging by the kind of plant i have, what kind of yield should i expect? i dont expect much, but its my first grow and im doing it more for the experience than anything
haha wow, i didnt know any of that. thanks dutch. so should i stick with what im doing right now, or should i shell out the cash for something a little fancier? also, would now be a good time to start force flowering? or should i wait it out a little bit longer?
more good light = more good bud.
good bud costs money...how high do you want to get?
haha high enough to say, "damn, i did a pretty good job"
money + experience/knowledge + facilities = good bud....:pimp:
hey, I would give it another few weeks but you should definitely add some more light, check the ph of your water, and maybe repot before your flower.Quote:

Your doing a pretty good job tho, just check that water ph, and dont forget about nutes.
good luck!
