Long slow growth.

Meet Wilbur
So I have tried growing my first plant, It has been growing for exactly one year and recently started budding past several weeks, this plant is 11 inches tall,
and has a beautiful skunk smell but it has grown little over an inch a month.
I think I have done a lot of things wrong, shared lighting, 12 hour cycle with computer lights on at times, I water the leaves daily for the past year, I have a heater on 24-7 at a comfortable 70 ish degrees all year, I started with a mix of vegetable and garden soil from a local garden and gravel yard, added 3" of KISS organic soil and periodically every 3 weeks add a small mix of water, General Hydroponix flora bloom, Micro and Gro. to which the tips of this plant turns yellow for a week and then goes away.
Is this plant Viable after all this time as the terpins look great, she has small buds growing everywhere now and has a nice skunk smell or are those just new sugar leaves coming out everywhere and I have a Mutant plant with mold all over her thinking they are tenpins?

Toss it. Mark it up to a learning experience. It’s trying to reveg. It’s as big as a 3 week old plant. Save the electricity, work and water.

It's re-vegging.
It needs to be closer to low 80s,.
Why a 12 hour light cycle?
Why are you watering the leaves instead of the soil?
Have you tried pee?

Oh man. Let’s see how that goes. “When I try it splatters all over my feet.”

ah so much to learn thanks for the info.
time to watch videos I guess.
First plant First try.
so re-vegging is bad?

It is if you aren't trying to reveg a plant

Revegging means it’s trying to stop flowering and starting to regrow. Could be worse. It’ll be a monster. Look up monstercropping.

Turn lights on 18-6. Then light leaks won’t matter. Let it reveg and start throwing regular leaf sets. By then maybe you’ll have figured a location it can be fully light deprived with decent air circulation. Then you can flip to 12/12 and hopefully get something worth the trouble. Transplant before doing all this. It’s surely rootbound by now.

I bought an indoor all in one grow tent that I can setup and coordinate a better grow, this poor plant grew so slowly id like to take it further along in a tent with a proper plan but also start a new one.

Put it in the tent and turn the light on 20-4 or 18-6. It’ll get funky but hang in there. Once it turns back to a normal plant it should be bigger. Tons of shoots. Again read up on monstercropping because that’s what you’re going to be doing.

I can pay whatever for a good light but hopefully under say 500.

No. I'm recommend something like this. There are plenty of cheaper lights that will do the job but I have been satisfied with HLG.
