Default Our situation

Disregard all previous posts as to our current setup. Our shwag-ish plant has been in the soil for 3 weeks now, but me have seen minor growth. We have it in a ventilated locker with an immobile fan on the uppershelf. The light/plant setup is on the floor of the locker. The walls are partially lined with aluminum foil (there is no evidence of overheating). Above the 2 wilting baby leaves, the plant is 2 cm tall. The soil is good quality and is as tall as the wilting, baby leaves like i said. There are about 4 leaves on our plant, the longest being 1 cm from stem to tip of leaf. The 20 watt aquarium fluorescent light is about 3-4 inches above the plant, and it is on a 18/6 light cycle as of 2 days ago. Previously, it was on a 20/4 for 3 days, and was on 24/0 for the first 2 weeks. However, in the first 2 weeks, i was dumb and left the light about 1.5 feet above the plant. It is watered fully roughly 5-6 times a weak, with daily "happy sprays" from a water spray bottle when i smoke by the plant. For a span of about 4 days, we had yeast+sugar+water in a water bottle and were supplementing our grow space with co2. For the first 1.5 weeks of the grow, about 2 tsp of sugar were added to the "happy spray" bottle. We now have several sprouts coming along.

-what can i do to make my grow better and/or faster?
-if i take care of my plant and harvest it properly, even tho it is somewhat shwag-ish, will the buds look nice and/or somewhat crystally or sticky?
-any other questions/comments?

There are so many answers to your questions. I suggest reading the grow faq on this site. Also when explaining your situation pictures help and also details. Sounds like you don't ph your water, don't know the temperature and humidity in your grow and many more variables that are important for people to know in order to advise you.
Good luck!

GET A BIG LIGHT. Its not really that simple but i would suggest you invest in more lighting. Either purchase some CFL's or invest in a HID.

i have attached the following pictures of our grows space. i have ridded of the aquarium lamp and added 2, 14w/60w output cfls. due to the camera, the picture of the individual plant is not very high quality. look at the picture of both plants and lamps it should pretty much explain everything

not to mention you are wasting electricity by not having reflectors on those lights right now.
