Well I'm still in the process of learning how to grow bud correctly!
My main question is : My leaves are pointing almost straight up, like a V! I'm wondering if this is normal or not. Please take a look at the pic and give me some advice. Today is day 4 after she broke soil!

the light im using right now is a 1- 42 watt CFL with 2600 lumen output with 2700k spectrum. The only reason i have this setup right now is because i feel she is still little young to go heavy on the light!My light is about 3-4 inches away from her!

I'm really trying not too over feed her with water. I think i'm doing ok with that right now. Because she standing really nice and healthy! No discoloration yet! She looks amazing!

you need 6700k for veg my friend blue spectrum for veg then 2700k red for flower or use a mixture for both like i do 18/6 for a few weeks depending on your grow area then 12/12 or you can do like me i don't like the 18/6 it messes with my sleep so i do 12/12 from seed and they get plenty big enough its just a slower vegtime heres some pics

Think they said it all: Let soil dry some, move light a smidge closer, get daylight (6500k) bulb for veg.
