Please help, what is wrong with her?

Okay so I have grown 4 crops in the past, about 8 years ago, all indoor and they turned out good. I don't even smoke a lot anymore.
I was walking my puppy the other day and literally found a plant growing in the grass, it was inches from the sidewalk downtown! No loose soil under it, does not look like it was purposely planted! I decided to go back at no ghat, dug it out and put it into a small pot. It is growing, has got 2 new sets in the last 5 days since I've had it. I am currently just using some soil from a house plant I purchased. I am currently just growing it under a single cfl, will upgrade the lighting shortly. It had a spittle bug on it but I've got rid of it.
One of the sets of leaves is kind of curled and disfigured was like that when I transplanted it. What would cause that? Bugs?
Take a look at the pics, why are my bottom leaves going yellow, lack of nitrogen?
I am not planning on having an extravagant grow op, not expecting a high yield or high quality, just some smoke.
Can anyone tell me what's going on, and what should I do?
Thanks RIUers! 20150606_200620.jpgView attachment 3435438 20150606_200620.jpg View attachment 3435438 20150606_200650.jpg View attachment 3435440 20150606_200656.jpg 20150606_200706.jpg View attachment 3435443 View attachment 3435444 20150606_200620.jpg 20150606_200620.jpg View attachment 3435438 20150606_200650.jpg View attachment 3435440 20150606_200656.jpg 20150606_200706.jpg View attachment 3435443 View attachment 3435444

please don't put up so many pics. just 2 or 3 is good.
it needs a small amount of fertilizer or transplant into a larger pot that has soil with fert in it, like foxfarm.

Whoa, I only meant to upload 4, sorry. Thanks for the quick reply, I'm going to the local hydro shop tomorrow to pick up some good soil and a larger pot. Thanks again!

Nitrogen deficiency / lockout by high/low ph. A ph stabilized bag of organic nute soil will work or a bag of regular soil/hydro and synthetic nutrients. Btw that deficiency is working its way up fast for a plant that size. Dont wait longer than a few days.

Have you looked at the underside of your leafs and see if you see anything moving?

I don't see anything moving, but there is a lot of what looks like dirt built up under the top few sets. When I transplanted I had to do it as discreet as possible as it was downtown, so after digging it out I put it in a grocery bag for my 3 minute walk home, not sure if some of the dirt got up there or not. There was a spittle bug up there that I saw after getting rid of the 'bubbles' but it was still young so do not think it could have reproduced but I could be wrong! I've never had a bug problem in any of my previous grows, so not sure what it would look like.

what everyone else said.

give it a larger container (1-3 gallon for now) with some good soil (roots organic, foxfarm) and light fertilization (about 25-50% dosage).

you can also spray it with some neem as a preventative for bugs if you'd like. those yellow leaves will die off eventually, but you'll get plenty of healthy new green growth by that time.

a CFL will only keep it alive for so long, you may want to just set it outside in the sunlight for 12 hours a day when you want it to flower.

Unfortunately I live in an apartment. My previous grows were fluro then hps. Since this is an unexpected plant not looking to put much into it. If I got let's say 3 cfls do you think I could at least veg with them? May pick up a cheap little mh or led kit for flower.

3 CFLs will get you through veg, 6 CFLs might even get you through flower if you keep her (hopefully it's a her) short.

no balcony? i would just throw one out on the balcony behind some tomato plants and whatnot.

Hopefully it's a she! Haha I'll keep it, it's already quite stinky though and really don't want to build a whole setup for the smell.
unfortunately posted up in a one bedroom above a business downtown so no balcony.
