Nah, I got a med card and live in a legal state so thats not an issue for me. I feel I finally have a grasp on it where if I was here when I started this one I would've done better. Excited for my next grow as my c02 tank is otw.
You ordered a CO2 tank?
You haven't gotten a plant out of seedling stage yet...
You realize you need a sealed grow room setup to properly utilize CO2 and a controller?
Since it would need to be sealed you probably would need at least Dehumidification, Air Conditioning, maybe heat and humidifcation, fans for air movement.
IMO you oughtta slow down.

I'd start again personally, I don't know what you have done but it's far from ideal, these were soaked/started 1st of August and went into flower on the 27th of August.

What substrate, nutrient etc are you using, something isn't right?
I didnt like the soil I got, it had fungus gnats but I took care of them. For nutrients I used this organic brand called burpee. You have any suggestions on better brands?

Controller and AC is what i still need to get. C02 is for my next grow Im not gonna waste it on this one. I honestly knew this plant was terrible but mistakes have been noted and wont be remade.

I use coco+perlite with canna A+B or Growth technology Ionic (1 part) I'd recommend either of them, I like the one part ionic it's really convenient when you are mixing frequently for veg but it works out around twice the price for nothing more than convenience tbh.

No, dude, you don't need CO2, and an AC unit, or better soil. You need to slow down, and learn how to grow a plant.

Your grow isn't a bad grow. It is a complete shitshow. It isn't even a grow, as your plant isn't growing. I swear I am not being mean, you just need to get this in your head that you didn't just make a couple little mistakes that you'll learn from. If you're buying equipment and planning bigger grows and your single plant still looks like this, you have not learned anything from your mistakes. You're talking about a growroom full of gear growing what appears to be a dandelion that found a little spot in the sidewalk to take root in. And talking about trichomes and dank smell. For a moment I thought maybe you were trolling. Seriously.

This is EGO shit man. Your ego is holding you back. You screwed this pooch. Admit it, fully. Say it out loud to yourself. Then, start again without the ego.

Keep it simple. Light, soil, water. Learn what your container feels like when it is dry, and when it has just been watered. Only water again when it's feeling more dry than wet. You'll know it's too dry if the plant droops. Learn from those kind of mistakes. Or move to something less prone to those mistakes. Coco, soilless, DWC. And don't use CO2 until you're at the top of your game or you're just wasting money.

Got to work on your basic germination and watering practices, here is a good germ guide. https://www.mandalaseeds.com/Guides/Germination-Guide. Keep it uncovered, domes are for clones. The BIGGEST issue any new grower will face is overwatering. Some people use a sprayer and just give them a little squirt of water when they need it. You need to let the plants stretch for water to grow good root balls. Try again and good luck! I also feel like this guy is trolling us LOL but oh well, maybe it helps someone else!

Surely this is a troll after looking back at it. I mean to be honest that is some talent with the plant you have there. I don't know how I could keep a plant alive and that small for six weeks.

I mean that would actually be difficult to repeat I feel like.
