Is this even marijuana?

DominionX10 · #1 06-02-2007, 12:03 AM

I've been growing this in my house for a couple of months now. I'm not even totally sure if its marijuana because it dont even look like some pictures I've seen.

Also, Its been growing for about 2 months and aint produced shit. How do I make it bud (if its marijuana)?

Also, I am having trouble with some of the leaves turning yellow, and the tips of the leaves turning brown, I think this is because I have my lights on it 24/7 though, I also heard that could stop it from budding.

I have added a few pictures so you can sort of give me some advice on what the plant is, what species, and if possible, what sex. And some advice on how to make it healthier.

Thanks alot all.
Jon

P.S. This is my first time posting, and my first time growing. And actually, I didnt even think the thing was going to grow sence I have never grown before. Oh, and my camera doesent have very good close up res, but any help you can give would still be cool.

you need to put them on a 12 hour light cycle.
good luck.

I also done something els stupid to, but oh well, its already done. Im gonna try to transplant them asap because the bigger plant has the entire 10 gallon fish tank filled with roots.

Oh also, for a tip for first timers. Dont be dumb like me and try to grow papaver somniferum right beside the pot plant. They wont survive. lol

I'm using two 40 watt double bulb flourescent lights. I lined the fixtures with tin foil, and I lined the entire closet with tin foil.

The lights cost me probably a total of 20 dollars. The fixtures were around 6-8 dollars a piece (at ace hardware for 4 foot fixtures) and the bulbs were $1.50 a piece.

I've started the 12 hour cycle now, so how many days should it be before it starts to bud?

Thanks for the compliments on it. Any advice on what to do with the baby plants though? some of them died from over/under watering. But some are still alive and pretty healthy, Im thinking I should transplant them now before their roots have time to intwine with the larger plants roots. Or should I just let them go? I know the root system of the larger plant has completely filled that fish tank, so Im guessing I should move the smaller plants.

Also, I didnt even germinate any seeds or nothing, I just made a hole with a pencil and through the seeds in there. lol.

A pic of the baby plants has been added.

dude, do some reading in the FAQs and stickies please

with your weak lightning it will take some time till you gone see something, my bet is 3weeks+

also, you don't just need some light, for grow/veg you need light that is in the blue spec - 6500K, for flowering you will need different light which is in the red spec, so 2700K.

do yourself a favor and get down to read those stickies and FAQs quickly!

takes about 8 weeks.. if you really want to see some action add a 1000 watt hps light
