Well what all should I do to make it grow faster.
It has the right amount of light and water.
And im getting it new fertilizer with the right amount of nitrogen, potasiam, and phosphorus.

How compacted is your soil? What soil are you using? Too many nutes can stunt the growth of a seedling.

I'd guess some sort of soil/nute issue. If it were too little light you'd be getting a spinly stretch, and you are not.

Ok so I removed the foil and moved my lights closer.

Is that good?
And I'm wanting to know on what kind of fertilizer i should use, when I should water it, If I'm missing anything.
How to make it more potent.?
And how can I get it to grow faster?

I'm not sure what kind of soil it is and how compact it is?
My brother started growing it and then gave it to me b/c it wasn't growing fast enough.
He then planted 3 more for him.
And what are nutes [sorry if I sound stupid, but remeber it is my first time growing.]

You can put the lights as close as you can and it dosen't feel to hot on your hand between the plant and the light. Don't give it nutes until atleast 3 to 4 weeks. I forgot how old it is?

Potency has to do with proper harvest. Right time time chop, dry, cure.

I would give it another week with the light closer like you have. It wasen't growing because your lights were to far away. You should see a huge difference with the lights closer. or you could go 12/12 now if you like. I would try it like you have it for a week. Let her bush up a lillte before flowering
