I don't wanna mess it up!!

having saved a seed from an 8th, i recently decided to try my luck and see how far i could get. Having no additional equipment (lighting, nutrients etc) i germinated and planted in regular soil from the garden and was delighted when not only did the seedling grow, but the plant flourished and has recently begun to show it's feminine side! As this is my first attempt at growing a plant of any description, my success (up till now) has come as quite a shock. My only problem as of now is my total lack of knowledge and inexperience. Not knowing what to look out for and be wary of has become stressful to say the least. The plant seems very healthy is almost 2 foot tall and has been in flowering stage for nearly two weeks. i just need the next step advice, what to look out for, what not to do, whether my lack of professional equipment may slow down or hinder the development of the plant. Having only started out as an experiment, the way the plant has grown so far has left me really not wanting to mess it up!! Any advice would be of great help to me, no matter how insignificant it may seem. I only want whats best for my baby lol ! Appreciative thanks in advance for any help given

is it inside or outside? have any pics? what node is it on?

it's inside literally just grown in pot on the windowsill (lucky month of sun in uk!) on 9th node i think and top seems to be cannopy like so thinking it's reached it's peak but really not sure. will have pics up soon

Keep your eye out for bug problems especally with soil from the yard. Avoid using if posible with next grows get new stuff for any store its dirt cheap.
sorry about the bad pun lol

sounds pretty good for a window grow. how is its stem strength? is it nice and strong or real weak? I'll check out the pics when you get em up.

pun was brilliant and instantly forgiven!! Stem seems good nice and strong though seems to get fatter/wider the higher up the plant it goes. each branch also seems prety good , some slight yellowing on a lower leaf but from what i've read may be due to overwatering?

it could be do to a number of different things. thats one possibility, i'll check the pics later, make sure you take some good ones, lol, im going to bed now.
