My First Plant (wtf is it doing?)

OK, I got this thing on a timer 18/6 for the vegetative state. I've only had it for about 2 1/2 months maybe and it has been a learning experience sense the start.

This is a story, skip down if you don't want to read.

First off, I found this seed on the floor along with another one. The other one didn't even germinate and this one just so happened to. I was very surprised so i put it in the soil and followed directions according to a growing guide (a video).

It finally came out of the ground after like a week and even then the whole seed popped out, but it was rooted, and, from what I've been reading, that sometimes happens. But after another week or two the shell wouldn't fall off of the plant, so I worked with it abit and it finally gave in.

I transplanted it to another pot and it has been growing ever sense. I gave it some nutrients that I just so happened to find in my house (I'm not the first one to grow marijuana in this house). Everything looked like it was going good, the leaves were a healthy green color.

Then eventually I saw my first 2 white pistles coming out of the plant. I was pretty excited because from what I've been reading that is a sign of a female plant. Woho.

End of Story


But ever sense about 2 weeks ago my plant has been looking kinda like half in a flowering stage half in a veg stage. Leaves are growing like mad out of everywhere and there are a million white hairs already. But this plant is only 7 inches tall...I'm wondering if that is because the lights are on the side of the growing box I have and not on the top.

Anyway anyone have a clue if this is a good or bad looking plant? It came from a bag of headies (sativa) that was grown outdoor. Now I'm growing it indoor to hopefully see some more potential. I was hoping that I could get some advice/tips to get the best yield out of this poor thing.

It is kinda hard to see but at the top I have no clue what it is doing I mean I can't even see the stem cause there are leaves and hairs going everywhere.

FYI: I don't have any money so this is all I got.

Your plant is FLOWERING some plants auto flower. Put it on 12/12 and feed it bloom nutes it will still grow to be a large plant. I have a 4' Purple Wreck that was grown 12/12 from 6" tall.

By auto flower you mean it just automatically starts flowering regardless of what state it is in?

I just changed the timer to a 12/12 state. I will find those blooming nutes because I have seen them before in my closet somewhere.

and holy hell not 5 minutes after I post i get a response you guys are on the ball! I already am starting to like this forum. :D

Correct, some strains were breed so that they 'auto-flower' in fact you can buy them from attitude seeds. Far as switching to bloom nutes go 1/2 strength for 1 week. It's called transition. You don't want to over feed or you may stress them and either kill them or cause them to Hermie (become both male and female)
