Need a little help please

I'm not much of a grower. this is my 3rd plant i have ever grown.

Pretty much my question is.. How does it look so far? if you notice its bare in a few spots.. its because my dog took off a few leaves...

Anyway.. the main thing i want to avoid is "You need this or that".

All i have access to grow with.. is

A 400w light (Not sure of the name ill post it in about 10 mins)
Miracle grow potting soil (Feeds for 6 months)
1 rotating fan.

That's about it..

And what i would like to hear as a response is.. way's i can better my plant w/o going out and buying all these things..

I understand what could happen with what i'm using.. (wont be that great)

But these are experiment grows if you will.

I'll post more pictures... because the only one i have atm is when it got overwatered (When i was growing outside)

overwatered
color looks good, just sad as a plant from being drowned. is she dry now? You will want to consider getting some basic nutes like Fox farm Grow Big incase you do see defs. Other than that you should be okay for one plant.

All of these were JUST took. my main question is.. with everything i have/posted.. Will me weed turn out okay?

I started watering it 3/4'th of a gallon every 3-4 days. I'm using 12/12. The fan is constantly on. (Not directly on them) The light that i'm using for some reason puts off hardly ANY heat. i put my hand 2 inchs away from it and barley feel the heat.. So i put my tallest plant roughly 1 foot away from the light...

your question is hard to answer and very loaded. and depends on your idea of ok. i will say low yield and maybe smokable. she has so many strikes against her already. the soil mix, the water issue, the dog issue, the light issue(mh is not gonna be the best for flower but will work). you get out what you put in, as with most in this world.

3/4 of a gallon may be too much. try a quarter to half every 3 days or so. with that light there wont be much evaporation thus the soil will stay wet longer. If the pot is light water if not leave it be. doing too much for your plants can kill them. get the light closer, if its not designed for growing you may still have issues. light spectrum means everything. until you get the light right the plant wont respond properly to any nute. If your already in 12/12 then finish the cycle out. start over when done. the stress of revegging at this point could kill the plant. GET THE LIGHT CLOSER. thats the number one thing I can tell you from what you say and I can see. Hope this helps a little.

Dont take this the wrong way or anything but to get a decent plant you need to veg for about 3 weeks and let the plant sprawl. you want a decent canopy to take in the light that is available. with what the plant shows now, your only gonna get a few grams of bud.

I waited until I had about 2 grand saved up to start growing so that I could get all the equipment I needed. it paid off waiting like that too. You really should consider the investment when you have the opportunity.

yeah very helpful, I've noticed the soil stays pretty serf for awhile. and the light originally wasnt for growing but was rewired to take 1000 w bulb, its been used to grow succesfully before. but asfar as what I'm using now ill be okay?
 
yeah no offence taken. I'm just Tryna grow some before my child is born for some extra cash, but I bought the light because outside it was only getting 4 hours of sun, it vegged for about a month its almost 3 months now

If your more than a week into 12/12 not really. I would say if your not reveg. at this point from what we have seen you wont really be a too much of a loss if it dies. If you can reveg you can do a couple things to make the canopy bigger. Fimming, topping... all thing you can find on this site. you need about 2x2 foot canopy to really make decent plant yeild okay. you will need some standard grow nutes to reveg properly and reduce stress but the soil needs to dry out a little bit man.
 
its only been in 12 for 5 days tonight. and the only thing I have access too is miracle grow liquid food. because where I live everything is far lol. but I do have a plant that is a week old and I'm planting more.. but by chance do you have MSN?
