A reg. bulb (incandescant) won't work.. you need CFL's minimum...to veg get 2 X 26W cfl ($9)... 1 Y splitter, ($3)..and an old lamp to make light.. sprouts are curly.. get some potting soil (not cheap) look for perlite mixed in.. plant seed about 3/8" deep.. Me I always touch and talk to plants. I think they like it...:shock: Put light as close to plant as possible about 1 - 1.5"..get a fan to strengthen stem... luck
+rep for growing..:joint:

Taker it slow and READ READ READ...daily. Then youl realize hey I know the answer before you even ask it...this site will teach you all that relevant info and learn ya right...

Read first ask questions when you cant find literature to read...thats my motto.

I suggest reading the growfaqs and reading thru Newb central like 5 times then youll know this little plant you got most likely will be your first failure and learning experiance...then youll know where to go from there.

welcome dude, looks like you got the bug the rest of us have. planted your first seed but seems your jumping the gun a little.i say that because of the question you asked. i would encourage you to read some before you get started. cannabox is pointing you in the right direction. go get the light the other guys was talking about but dont spend a lot of money right now. research some, when you think you read enough to go further read some more. here are a few links to get you started. the first one took me weeks to get through and i still go back there when in a pinch and trying to figure out where i went wrong. i rather see you do the reasearch and see 100 post of question from you then see you start with little knowledge and get frustrated and never here from you again.

also check out peoples grow journals and copy success. thats what i do. my first grow is below.

after you read a little, or while you researching if you have any question feel free to post. but when the question plainly show that you have not researched the more experienced folks wont respond.
