looks stretched. how high is the light? if ur using cfls you can have them an in away from the plant tops and not wory about burning them. a fan blowing imitation wind would thicken the stem. how old? wat kind of lights? she looks a lil tall and skinny but ok

You can either put d fan on 24hrs a day to give them a gentle breeze, or just while ur lights r on. So its a 175 light, but is it CFL or HID?
It does look good, a lil lanky like Kaleo said, but the leaves r nice n fat, so it shows that she is nice n healthy.
Good Work & Good Luck.

no no no no no
you cant grow weed with a light like that it will just stretch out and then die... go out and buy a few compact florescent light (cfl) blubs and use that to do your grow

you're okay at the moment, but you need more/better lights. Add some CFLs or put in some T5s. I use the Sunblaster T5 high outputs and they are great for veg. Not the best for flowering but they work (you have to get the 2700K bulbs to flower). You'll get better results than that bulb, but your yeild will suffer. Your plant is really stretched. Get that fan blowing and add them lights and you'll be fine.

What have you fed her so far? Container size? What is your ph level of water when you water? How often do you water?

my plant leafs are turning yellow and one has already durled up and turned almost all brown what do i do : (

Again I ask you what have you fed her so far? Container size? What is your ph level of water when you water? How often do you water? If you don't answer the questions can't realy help. Need info. You're picture didn't workd right for me to see. I would start off by saying you need a larger container without knowing anything. If all things are the same you might be root bound, but with out you giving anymore information there is know way to know.

odk the ph and the food is says plant food 15-50-15 and i water it probloy every other day when soil dries
Do you ph your water??? You have given me no information here. If you do not ph your water your water maybe to acidic. You really need to give people information if you expect help. I gave you questions to answer and you didn't really give me any answers. How can I help if you don't give me anything to work with.

By the sounds of it, are you watering with fertilizer everyother day? If so you need to stop doing that. You only want to use fertilizer every other watering. Also you sound like the container size might be to small. Get yourself at least a 3 gallon container and transplant that is probably your problem. Also makesure when you water, water comes out the bottom about 10% run off.

Thre are somethings you really need to know. You need to know PH of the water before you water the plants, it is not listed on the package that you have, it changes depending on type of water and what you put in. Get yourself a ph tester (the liquid one is like $10 - $15. Your ph should be around 6.0

Also you should know what size container you are in. You sound like youwater often and might be root bound. I keep my plants in 5 gallon pails (20L) and always make sure there are holes in the bottom of it for water to drain.

Pick yourself up some indoor growing books and do some reading. You seem like you have a lot to learn.

Oh, you might want to invest into som proper food designed for indoor growing. Go to a hydroponics store and get some vegetative food and some flowering food.
