Its green and healthy. Better than some ive seen here. Yes its a little bit behind but sometimes that just happens and is not user error. Dont do anything to the plant, roots, or feed if its that healthy and normal. Light change is ok

Looks okay. Anything else in the pot besides peat moss or coco? The plant is taking to you. Tips are down.

If your plant is a photo, yes, it can catch back up provided everything else is cool. Put that light about 20in away from canopy to start and adjust accordingly.
The light is extremely weak in my opinion. It's a very ghetto set-up. Like I'm scared if I put it too away it won't be able to use it. What do you think?

What light are you using now and how far away is it?

In my post I was talking about the TS600, when you get that, put it 20in away...I had that light at 16in then got one more plant so I gave it to a friend and got the ts1000

Oh thats great. Did you buy it from the UK site? I'm trying to learn if its legit or not. It's a kinda big investment for me. Btw the lights I have are just two LED bulbs. They got me until here.

USA, my man, but that site looks legit...I liked the light for the month I had it...my little plant responded well. Plenty of youtube grows featuring that light...if you're only doing 1 plant and just trying this out, that is more than sufficient to get you going. My buddy's plant is doing well under it.

That's actually a 100 watt light. You would be better off buying something better now than later which you'll likely end up doing.

Well yeah...I agree with you, but at only $75 and he says this....


If dude's only growing one plant, there is nothing wrong with that light.
Exactly my thoughts bro. I'm not thinking about growing 6 plants at the same time or something. This is like a side-activity for me. I want to try out something new. What would the quality of my 1 plant be with that 100W light? Yield for example. Also, how many plants can I grow with that light.

1 plant yield, is way to subjective to guess but with that said I bet you can pull at least 2 ounces off a first grow with it without much knowledge

Under optimal conditions yield is .50 to 2 grams of finished product per watt of light.

Don't forget you lose 75% of mass during drying.

Good luck.

Soon I will be buying LED light. Can my plant catch up or will it die?

Edit: The LED I'm planning to buy https://marshydroled.co.uk/products/ts-600w-led-grow-light-full-spectrum-hydroponics-indoor-lamp-for-veg-flower-all-stages-plants
Looks like overwatering, let the soil dry up til you get dry soil up to your knuckle and then start watering normally again, might need to elevate your pots to let more oxygen in. Don't transplant unless the soil is muddy. If you can fix that then it will be fine.
