Yeah dude you should invest in some better lighting. My plants area 10 days since sprout and I have 2 x 23 watt bulb per plant. gonna be buying some more lights in a week
I will change from the 15W to the 26W soon.. It's just not necessary yet and the longer I wait the more money I save :P

The plant is growing really really fast even w/ just one 15W bulb.

I've noticed they seem to like to "perk up" during the day

and droop at night.. yet they still continue grow... interesting.

oh, that makes sense, I have 2x 23 watt 1600 lumen bulbs per plant so my plants are getting everything the could possibly use. U can get 4x 23 watt bulbs from lowes only for like 12 bucks. Im prob gonna get a couple of those packs as the plants grow. Im also getting 5x Jock Horror (only planting one) and i think a friend of mine can give me a clone of Maui Waui :grin:

true but that requires more wiring and buying more cords... that's the only downside.. but hey I got a job today!! :) so idk we'll see how the plant reacts and if she needs more light

I knew they grew at night, even in pitch darkness...

but this is incredible!

Look at my last post of "Night of Day 7" to see how much these leaves grew (scroll up)!

From a small spout mighty plants do grow.Keep the light's has close to the top of the seedling has possible but not to close that it will burn.Put the seedling on a product called superthrive for the first 2 week then start adding low nutrients and watch her grow if it is a her and not a he or a he/she.

I diddnt read everything, but did you say your using 1 15 watt CFL
That is not nearly enough. If you want her to grow FASTER and bushier (All around better)
you would go get at least a 23W CFL or a or a 150W equivelent would be enouhgh for a wile
Just one bulb wont cut it much longer.
Look at my grow i used to have one 23W CLF on each plant and now i have 8 23W CFL's in the bbox
The same week i added all the CFL's i saw new groeth an she took off
Now they are in flowering.... ALSO if you wanna see what your seedling would look like with more light and at 2 weeks i have a very healthy seedling in my box

Tvd2 this is great!! I'm a first time grower too and my seeds sprouted the same day as yours. It's going to be a lot of help to be able to compare our grows.

She's a little droopy... I have a strong feeling this might just be a bit normal though for 3 reasons:

1. It happened to my friend Tamuuli at the same stage in seedling growth.
2. I know the soil is aerated, I know I did not overwater.
3. It's still growing (so it cant be that bad:P)

So I gave it a good amount of water, increased the light hours and moved the lights a bit closer.

Comment for ideas/suggestions.. always welcomed!! :)

Note: Although it doesn't look bright in this picture, those are very bright 6500k daylight bulbs

Yeh mine pretty much looked exactly like that. Idk why, might be underwatering cuz when I transplanted the palnt, the top of the soil seemed really moist but the bottom was completely dry?
