that little cutie looks about ready to do whatever you want with it. Indoors or out? big plant little plant? cheap/moneys no object? what?

for the moment the least you can do is keep it watered with tap water only and put it in some kind of light natural or cfl at least. Moist but not wet btw

I really don't know anything about clones but I would say put her in soil, get a good light setup, and start her on an 18/6 light cycle.

Uh I don't want to be offensive in any way, but it sounds like u just went and got a clone with no set up ready at all. It unfortunatley sounds like a death sentence for your girl.

But if you are truly commited and are more ready than your post made it sound, then you need to get your soil and staged up pots for transplanting. You will need a Grow fertilizer and flower ferilizer. U will need a good light (duh) and ventilation. Do tons of reading and I suggest moving this thread to newbie central.

I really hope u get it together fast and save this girl (looks like it needs water already).

Good luck! Next time be ready before you get the clone...

Check Craigslist for used Metal Halide or High Pressure Sodium lighting in the 250w to 400w range. Light is one of the most critical factors that govern yield. You can adapt it to grow indoors, or maybe it will already be set to go.
Get some water in the soil, and feed it. When you start out cuttings, use NO MORE than 1/4 strength nutrients. Despite what most here would say, Miracle Gro is suitable, just go REALLY easy on it. Hang out here and learn more.
CFL = Compact Florescent Light. It's one of those spiral tube lights you see that are replacing Incandescent lights.

aswell as watch it and feed it with proper plant food.. miracle grow.. this is my first ever plant.. i will be happy when i get bud off of it lol. thank you again for your help sir.

Cfl means compact flourecent light. 18/6 refers to the light cycle. So 18 hours of light/6 hours of dark. I would go to local grow shop and get a soiless mix. Its more forgiving of the mistakes you will most likely make your first grow. Don't over water either. And start reading! Now is the time to learn!

Its a little late for outdoors now I would say. But keep it in a pot if you want to move it. Ya this first grow will be a major learning experience for you, so don't expect much. You need to invest money and time to get a good product. And reaserch! You got lots to learn. Ie miracle grow is typically not used for cannabis, as. They have not yet developed a line that won't give u massive nute burn or shwagy taste.
 
i have the perfect outside spot... i just need to know how to successfully grow this baby outside... i know i'm seeming stupid to this... and all of you can tell me about investing.. i know.. i am going to start into hydroponic's after this 1 plant is grown...i want to see how outside growing is.. then i'm making my 8ft long 7 ft wide...5 feet high metal shed into a hydroponic shed.. after i insulate it. and all that other good shit.

Take it easy on a poor little newbie guys. WTF? That means WHAT THE FUCK!!
OK, back to the business at hand. Don't mind the bullshit. they all started where you are or close to it so don't worry about stupid questions. If all the stupid questions were eliminated from this site it would be a very small elite group that I would not be included in. So anyways............
Outdoors is deffinitly the easiest and cheapest so lest just go with that. First off, let's get that little gal hardened off. If you don't it will DIE!!
That would be a bad thing!! What is "hardened off" you ask? Good question!! See? You're not so dumb!! Hardening off is the process that allows that little baby to withstand the rigors of the outdoors. If you just toss her out there the wind rain sun etc. is going to do its best to kill the little thing. So let's give her something like muscles to fight back with. First off, Nothing harsh or extreme. Light yes, but soft filtered sunlight like under a shade tree. Wind yes, but a light breeze like in a protected corner. Fertilizer yes, but at this point virtually none and working very slowly into that. Water for sure but moist not wet.
Have I left anything out guys? How about we start out in a small pot with some good potting mix. Something that doesn't have built in ferts as in fertilizer.
A seed mix will do. Your little plant is not going to require much for a while and this will give you plenty of time to research what to do next. try to do your own research and when you can't figure out why the F>(*^ng search button doesnt work come on back!!

Don't worry, we all had to learn and most of us the hard way. I doubt there are many people on this forum that have killed more plants than me. I think I've fukked up every possible way and then some. But I've got it dialed in now for soil and hydro and my last few grows have been very successful. Soil grows are much more forgiving than hydro. You'll need a good soil "recipe" and here is , in my opinion, the best: https://www.rollitup.org/subcools-old-school-organics/338384-2010-revised-super-soil-recipe.html

There is a great hydro system that is very simple; it's called the "Stinkbud" system - although he was not the one that actually created it. I've done about half a dozen grows in mine and I've never lost a single plant. Don't get into the BS on here; learn from the real pros.
