Default First Grow on a budget
Here is my first grow and set up so far. I thought I would start small with a pot, mg potting soil (I now know this was not the best choice), and one 42 watt (equal to 150watt) bulb. I planted the seeds two days ago and this is what I have so far. Any tips or help would be awesome.

Looks good.....don't use any fertilizer for about 1-3 weeks. Your young babies don't need it. Also allow the soil to dry a bit before watering...you may need to water every 3-4 days. Over watering will stunt growth. Last but not least patience.

Good luck.

Well, you'll defnitely need more lighting. probably 4-5 more of those 42w cfls assuming the 100w per plant rule. and you should give them their own seperate pots, you don't NEED to, but it sure does help.

I agree, I left that part out....you want at least 100,000 lumens for ultimate growth. Best to use seperate pots that way you don't have to un-tangle roots later. Especially if you end up with male plants...that would not be good.

I plan on moving them to their own bigger pots soon but I am just not sure of when to do that yet. This was just to start the Growth process. Any suggestions on when?

root growth is the first part of a plants growth, to avoid much shock, I'd do it ASAP.

well I transfered one of them to a new pot and everything seems to be going fine. One has four leafs but the other still only has two. Is this ok? shouldnt it have two more ridged ones? Also I bought another light for the other one so I have one light for each, is this enough?
