Archive Seed Bank Light Speed - First Try. At First I Didn't Care Now I Do, Help.

I popped the seed May 20th. It's been a while and this little girl just wasn't doing anything for the longest time. The first pictures are from last Thursday... that's basically what she looked like for two weeks until her seedling leaves (I'm stoned and can't remember the name) started to die. She wasn't getting proper sun and I decided to put her on my roof where she's been doing better. Upstate NY. The last picture was taken after watering just now. I see progress and feel like I should try to start fresh or stop all together.

I don't think I can do anything about the mediocre composting soil I got. I threw some coffee in the mix and perlite at the bottom for drainage, but I don't think the soil was in the right realm at all (bought and assembled with the help of psilocybin).

I'm considering moving her inside. FYI her name is Samantha L Jackson. So, I'm thinking about moving Sam inside. Specifically, into the closet. I can clear out some space behind my suits and throw a tinfoil fort up for her. **I'm living at home (since the pandemic started) otherwise there'd be black dog lights in a proper grow room** I digress... In this situation - tinfoil fort closet light, do y'all think Sam could end up coming back and yielding anything?

ALTERNATIVELY - could I grow her in this sort of lame ass state and then make clones to bring with me when I move back to my own place at the end of the summer? Do y'all think I could grow clones that would survive being shipped overnight from the northeast to the gulf coast?

If you're going to set up a makeshift thing in the closet with weak light, no proper ventilation, no environmental controls, then it's going to be a disappointing outcome. I mean, if you really just want to grow a plant in a challenging situation for fun (I'm like this), then do it, but it's not gong to give you any decent quality or quantity.

Oh absolutely this is just for fun... If this produces a single flower I'll be just as happy as if it dies before getting to flower. I edit films and enjoy watching this little girl do whatever she's gonna do. Honestly it's unpredictable and exciting (whether or not what I'm doing is enough to sustain this plant).

I'm just really eager to establish my first test of a 'mini commercial' set up. Planning on getting Black dog 1000s, gorilla grow tent, proper nutes, hydro setup, ventillation, and even an air purifier to suck the exhaust out as I'm in an apartment that's a downstairs unit of a house back home Nola, Louisiana.

Updated picks in a few days. Keeping her outside, found a better spot in the sun.

Been getting more sun, 15 hour long days here. I let the roots dry out and just watered with 5 ml clonex clone and seedling nutrients... hoping to see some stronger growth as she's been totally deprived of nutrients until just now. Curious about what you think of progress from last pics to now + clonex as nutrient until she's caught back up + if I should transplant her in order to create a better medium + other advice etc.

She's inside because it's raining, I have the book behind her and a fan in front of her wedged between my computer monitor and window

So I finally got some nutrients and mixed them in with her water, progress was noticeable immediately... Feeding with Clonex seedling nutrients until successfully in veg
