Hello Rekap That looks much better
The diference between the pics is really plain to see.

I think it's going to be a good first grow, my very first never even germinated


good luck, love mand xxx

much better do you have a fan blowing on her? her stem should be like a crayola crayon at two weeks.. if you don't look into a small desk or clip on fan at your drugstore she will thank you for it

Peace

i've got a fan in the closet, but it is not pointed directly at her, should it be?

Knowms pic is a perfect example of using multiple CFL's on one plant. Of course, there would then be issues of lost light...

Should I?

Fuck.

Maybe some white marble chips or crushed white stones that are non-absorbant on top of the soil. It will help reflect some of the light lost into the dark soil. First, though, you can bring the soil level up a bit. That'll make her more sturdy. And yes, point a fan on her enough to get her to gently flutter. The movement will make her grow a stronger main stem. You should not have to support a seedling.

Do your cups have drainage holes? Plastic cups gather moisture in the bottom and will rot your roots. Make sure when repotting to use some crushed stones, pottery, or best of all, the tan lava rock, which will hold some moisture and your roots will grow right into them.

I'd also suggest wrapping your pots in tin foil, with the dull side out.

No nutes, yet. But look for a tiny bottle of SuperThrive in your local garden store. A drop or two per gallon of water is big help. It's vitamins for your roots. Costs $4.

I'd also suggest using luke warm bottled water with a PH around 6.8. All the water I've been buying has been in that general range. I test it with an aquarium test kit. Just add a drop to a sample of water and it turns a ceratin color that matches up to a chart. Costs $4.

Young plants do like nitrogen. When she's a bit older, you may consider getting some bat guano. Just Google it. You'll be looking for something along the lines of an 11-1-1 mix. Nitrogen is that first number.

More pics, though. Let us see your grow area...

Hope this helps.

And always remember: Knowm loves you.

Listen to 9skis... He's covered everything. For the time being

wow, thanks a lot 9skis. i figured i was doing something wrong seeing that the main stem is not getting any thicker. ill get a new pic up tomorrow night(with an actual digital camera)lol. i however did buy a sack of white rocks to put on top after i transplant, where you saying to put some "red lava rock" along the bottom? the temp home has a bottomless opening for watering from the bottom, i usually water from both directions. and ive added about 15 drops of mir-grow into a liter of bottled water. and i also mist the youngin from time to time...my thank you's for the advice!

HOLY SHIT!!! 15 drops to a liter ??? I'm surprised she's still alive... Chill for a while with normal water then go get some superthrive as 9skis said and begin watering her with 3 drops to the GALLON. Also go ahead and add some white rock chips now, it will help majorly with your light situation.. and as far as the lava rock goes, yes it's ideal, but if you can't find it dont sweat it. What you want to do is get the bottom of the pot filled with some type of rock or gravel to improve drainage nd soil airation. Roots need oxygen to grow. and hurl that MG out the window as it's the devil of marijuana cultivation

Peace
