Help, first time grower! Pictures Included.

[mattb_22000011]

Hi,

Basically I got given a seed 3 months back and i germinated it and it began to grow. All I have had on it is a 22W bulb (see picture below). It has taken 3 months to get to how it looks now (see other picture below). I would like some feedback on what I can change to make this plant flower (if it even can) i.e. Lights and times.

I really didnt expect to get it to grow as much as it did, thats why i am so unprepared with what to do next.

Any help would be great. Thanks in advance!

Check that out, it works for my little set-up of like 2 plants, and it puts off enough heat to keep them warm plus it is cheap and can be placed in nurmerous locations. I am happy with it...Until I can afford better.

MUCH more light. You may need to do side lights if you don't plan to buy a HPS.
Red spectrum.
12/12.
That plant isn't bad for how little light you had on it!
Plus it's ready for a new pot. That one is way too small to support it through flower. Look for a 3 gallon bucket.

get about 4-5 more bulbs 2 more uptop an the rest for side lightin an 12/12 that bitch

Hey man, I ain't trying to still your thread, but will Incandescant all spectrum lights such as shown in my first post actually flower the plant? This is my first indoor grow also, and this site grow FAQS says no indescant light will grow when my light dictinctly says it WILL provide ALL the daylight spectrum to grow plants.

the light shown in the first post is a cfl not a incondusent. it will flower with a cfl, but you will need more then 2 or 3.

Thanks for the help so far. Much apperciated!

The light 'Schizoid' said he has,

Hydroponics Systems

Would you recommend I get this?

I have a space about 1 meter tall and 1/2 meter wide that I can turn into a little grow room. Would this light be a good choice?

iS THAT 22W CFL A 150 WATT EQUIVILANT?
It looks a lil streatchy, but still pretty good job.
It is prolly getting root bound so you need to get a bigger pot and repot it asap.
start reading in the novice area.

Im not to sure about the current light bulb. I got it off ebay around the same time as I got given the seed. It has 22watts written on it. But it works out more than 22watts compared to a normal light bulb.

The 150watt light first mentioned, will they be a good choice of light?? Link below.

I'll get a bigger pot for it first thing tomorrow morning.

Thanks again!
