    Looking good so far. When you see roots from drainage holes it is time to move them into a bigger home. Feeding will depend on the soil you are using, what is is it?

    I'm on my first grow as well, and like you, i used an assortment of bulbs that i had available and let em grow 'in the open' on my counter. They struggled horribly

    Make some kind of enclosure with reflective material, it increases the efficiency of the bulbs since all that light is bouncing around in a small space. It gives your plants more opportunities to catch the light, instead of having the light bounce through a large room and be absorbed by the walls.

    Boxing my plants did wonders.

    There are also grow tents you can buy for about 100 bucks on ebay if you have money to spend. Otherwise i made my box out of a large cardboard box! I think a broken deep freezer would work perfectly. It would also be 'stealthy'.

    yeah i just went to home depot baught 2 lamps and 2 30 watt 2100 lumens each right over it on each side with the LED in the center top. just put it in a bigger pot 12 inch terra cotta, saw the roots at the bottom of the old pot took it out and mixed it with miracle gro moisture control , blood meal , bone meal and i got bloom booster for the food. ph of the soil is 7.2 will take pictures when i get home and post them. I picked miracle grow because this my first time heard some good things and bad things bout it but since this my first time i was like the hell wit it. Was thinkin bout orderin the technaflora super nutrients next week to replace the miracle grow. Again any more ideas would be helpful, thanks lol
