Allright thanks. I did bury it as much as i could. it's still sticking out a lot (casue i ran out of room in my cup)
Here is a picture of my setup and other plant. Any suggestions would be great.
The picture below is an early picture. the entire setup has mylar covering it now, not to mention that the lights are MUCH lower. I am currently under house arrest and can't smoke any weed, so this is why i decided to grow it. i made this out of materials found around my house. the mylar and light bulbs were brought to me by friends.
Here is the other plant. Looking A LOT better in my opinion. i obviously don't know too much about growing yet, but im learning.
Also with the fan i was using a 9v cellphone charger to power it. i just switched it to a 12v now and it's running a hell of a lot faster (and louder :[) but hopefully that should help circulate much more air. eventually i will add another fan inside to help blow more air directly on to the plant.
