My stem has little white and yellow dots at the very bottom what does this mean?
My plant is in 12/12 right now they have about a week!
Its almost 2ft tall!!
I give it miracle grow for the moment but i was feeding it tigerbloom?
I have 2-23w light bulbs on top
and 2-23w light bulbs one on each side (cfls)

Since they are root starts should I ad more soil to it?

you can depend on how high up they. often you will cover them up they will grow roots and more nubs will grow eventually above them.

Just regular potting soil nothing special but I do have some desert sand on top of the soil because of rumors I've heard that they keep bugs out don't know if its true or not but so far no bugs
But I do have 2 little holes on only 1 leaf wouldn't know were that's from??

okay sand is fine it razor sharp to bugs, anyways that not a cure all trust me. water from watering 9x out of 10. but your soil sounds fine i just saw that sand and was kinda like wtf? but no thats fine and will work good also help reflect light, i usualy put stone on the top of my soil not for bug but for refection. have you heard of diatomaceous earth?

You are really trying to give suggestions about nutes when he only showed a picture of the bottom few inches of a 2 foot plant? Do you have any grow experience yourself? I would question anything you are saying at this point in time, but that is just me.

and your little leaves look fine as well...if you want to know about holes in the leaves we need to see the leaves with the holes.

plus i didnt ell him to stop i said slow down and the yellowing is a sure sign "minor" nutrient(as in you dont need to do anything or you can make small adjustments and try to fix it) problems. i find most of my problems and correct them from inspecting the lowest most growth
