Hi, newbie here with pics...Help Wanted!!

Hi, this is my first time growing, really it was just a thought and well i planted some seeds my friend had been saving from our sacs of dank, so i figured, what the hell. Here are the most recent pics (today) of my two plants i started about 2 months ago. Now, mind you i dont use lights or anything special, just some good soil from a friend and some buckets i got at teh dollar store. For some reason i cant find anything bigger, and well being broke doesnt help much either...any ideas on that would be helpful too, i know they need to be movied into something bigger. Anyways, my profile has all my pics in it. If anyone has any comments, suggestions, ideads...please feel free, good or bad! Sorry the pics are kinda blurry, i dropped my cam so many times! If you want me to take more pictures, maybe diff angels or zoom or stuff, let me know! thanks so much...

no pics...

oh ok...here let me see if this works...tryin to put up some pics

I am so sorry... :( there so lanky, you shouldn't deprive them of proper lighting... From what I've seen I'd say chop em' down cuz it's far too late to do anything about it's stretched-ness... But wait for other opinions man mabye I'm wrong :( Looks like the smaller one might still have a chance...

well, you say you are broke, can you really afford to grow?...the buckets are fine...what kind of lights/ or outside?...they are a little stretched, but there is no reason to give up(i've grown a bigass tree with a plant that looked like that,it just might effect your yield...you need alot of light real close to tighten up the plant, you need reflective material all around it, so you don't waste light energy...get back with more info

thanks, that helps alot, right now, i keep them on my back porch, my closet is kinda filled with boxes from our move in here. I know its not the best conditions. i just kinda did it to do it and see how it goes, but i am really getting into and if i have to learn by trial and error so be it! so, what kinda lights does anyone recommend, its a small closet, thats the down side. What should be the temp of the closet and what not? if there are any old posts i should read or anything that would help me out, i would appreciate it! thanks

you should have at least 2x2 for you plant and thats pushing it.. a standard 400w hps should do, but b sure to buy a hortilux bulb so you can use that light for vegetation as well

thanks for the info, i am looking up those bulbs and i see a million different kinds, can anyone narrow my search down? and how many? i feel like an idiot, but i am when it comes to this and i would like to learn, and i will get whatever i need...so if someone can help me out with the basic stuff list of stuff i need, that would be awesome...thanks!!!!!! :eek:

go to home depot and you can get cfl lights in the light section get like 6 of them if you have to go the cheap way im growin a plant on limited monie so i went with the cfl which i just bought they work good sence thers a guy on here named bobbong that grew whith those lights so im gonna try it...go read his thread on black jack and read the whole thing lets yo see what to do from the beginning to the end and what to do on the way and shit here it is.......oh well it wont let me do it go to the search bar and type in bobbong and go to the thread blackjack round 2...........hope it helps you on your grow

I hope you have plenty of dranage holes in those buckets? Quick dranage is a must for a long term growth in buckets.

thanks toke it, that might be cheaper! all this feedback is great and yes zandor i deff have hole at the bottom of the bucket! ...although i think i am going to ditch these plants and try from scratch and do it the right way...i don't think there is any hope for these guys anymore!!! thanks for all your help....does anyone know where to get good seeds at? i live in f'n PA...so its hard to get crap shipped here! thanks alot!!!!

keep them outside and make sure they get as much sun as they can possibly get i wouldnt cut them down if i were you

well, see i live in an old mansion that has other ppl living in it too, i am the only one with a little back porch and it doesnt get much light, well not direct sunlight for most of the time anyways, thats the bad thing, and i cant get any growing lights for at least 2 weeks..if not more, and i don't think its worth it, but if you think it is let me know...and cut them? what does that mean....i am clueless to this stuff, but i want to learn, anykind of info would be great! and thanks rastakaze for all your info!!!
