Your light needs to be WAYYYY closer to your plant. How big is the room you're growing in? You'll need a lot more lights, get some 42w CFLs. Are you only growing one plant? Sorry for all the questions lol

You plant looks a little streched. How far away and how mamy of those bulbs are there?

You should get a larger pot and replant it up to the leaves and bring lights in much closer, only about 1"-2" away. If that is your only plant, you may want to think about germing a few others, as it may turn out male, then all your time is wasted.

I agree, it looks a little stretched, defo get some more lights (if you only have 1) and move them closer.

Take them away ASAP. Buddy, your lights are in the green spectrum. Green is the only spectrum plants cant see. Like someone said, buy either warm or blue cfl's...
