May get hot in that little fire trap. Unsafe for the plant and your house. Save up and get a chinese ebay LED. You'll be disappointed with your current bulb. Tbh, if your broke, use the sun. Prepare a medium to weak soil outside in a safe spot. Prep for deer or whatever predators you have etc. It'll be small so i doubt the smell will get further than 10-20ft from the plant and would be hard to spot. Best of luck.

And you'll need a slight more phosphorus towards the end of flowering and for a first time grower you should consider organic premixed soil from walmart or wherever. This way you don't have to play chemist and you can sit back and observe what should happen in an entire life cycle, then next time make adjustments off what you learned.

Ps you have enough time still to tranaplant into a premixed organic soil. Wait until the volume of the container is equivalent to the volume of the plant vegetation.

It looks fine, let it grow into the container. When it looks obvious that it is trying to communicate something to you with its leaves, feed it. When you do decide to experiment with your bottled nutrients, do it in 1/4 strength to half strength and not in every watering and only after it has stretched if it keeps looking this healthy.

RIU has tons of feeding schedules posted by users in a similar boat as you. Check them out and give them a test.
