Also, I'm not sure about your soil mix recommendation....sand? what is the benefit of using sand? Also, the roots and bark....what is the benefit? I would never recommend miracle grow, although I know lots of people use it. There are soils made specifically for growing MJ that have most of the needed nutrients added to it already....check out happy frog soil. Or something with mychorrizae added. Perlite is a must when using soil. You want to quite a bit to the mix. It helps aerate the soil and makes drainage better.
Fresh air and circulation is very important like CannaKaz said....make sure the airflow is good.
From what I see your plant looks fine....I would think about repotting pretty soon so you don't get cramped roots....but the leaves look healthy.
Also, you could probably start adding some nutes when you repot. Do you live near a hydro store or a specialty garden store?
This site is great for beginners.....read, read, read....you'll get it! :jointsmile:
