My First Grow

[gunner90210]

Hey i germinated some seeds of unkown origin the other day, most likely bush seeds as they were of a light brown colour...i planted the seed in the soil when it was about 3 days old and the white root was about a half an inch long...now just over a week later the plant has grown just over 4cm above the ground and has 2 sets of leaves that look quite green and healthy...it first sprouted on monday or tuesday, and todays friday and even though it seems to be growing okay its a bit wilted...what can i do?

Ill upload some pictures soon

also i would like to know, considering its at a young delicate age, should i keep it under artificial light for an extended period when it hits dark, ive got a 10 watt clf lamp i think...its one of the ones designed to fight global warming, with mercury or something, its in a pot plant with soil i just got from my backyard where other plants grew but it seems to be working

you have to tell us your grow set up, and if this is outdoors your kinda way late in about a month or 2 everyone is gonna be pulling there plants.. its kinda too late to start its gonna be worthless

im from australia, winters just about ending, hitting up spring at the moment so they should flower at the prime stage

oh and yes i am growing outdoors, the pot gets direct sunlight for at least 8 hours a day, but i germinated them indoors then planted them as a seed with a root, they are about a week old after germination, 4 cm high but slightly wilted

goodluck man, do some research on this site, and breedbay.co.uk...but some advice, dont feed your plant untill the first set of leaves start yellowing, ifu dont want to kill your plant

what he means is until your plants are 1 month old.

ok, i watered them with some plant food the other day but not much i wont do that again, ive got a few coming up now...i live in the suburbs with a big yard, i will most likely move them out to the bush when they are big enough....do you think that 10w lamp would be appropriate for indoor growing
