This is my first time growing in my house i just want to see if i can actually make it to the budding process not really looking to grow to smoke . Maybe just a couple grams i dont really know . If she grows fast ill let her keep going . im really just wondering when i start my 12/12 and all watering cycles from start to finish . i will be growing this in a large powerade bottle with normal soil . here is a picture of the area i made for the beginning of the grow stage .

Good luck man I too am on my first grow. 1 plant 6 cfls in my closet :). A word of advice from a fellow newbie.... grow organic don't use any of that chemical bottle shit from the hydro stores. Make your own soil. Since you growing so small I would just buy a good organic soil like black gold or roots organics.

Yeah, may as well buy a bag of organic soil; your plant will thank you for it with more and better buds...
And lights lights, lights! Add more and more cfl lights as she gets bigger...you can't have too many really
And when she's done you'll have a decent grasp of soil growing (the most demanding imo) and plenty of lights for your next grow.

Definitely buy a blue spectrum bulb for veg and a red one for flower if your only using that one little fixture. buy as many as you can if possible.. good luck

Bulbs are cheap. Buy a bunch. Walmart has good prices and they have the GE bulbs that have the 6500k spectrum.. Might as well do it right.
3 gallon pot
Decent soil
1 good seed.
6-10 26 w cfl's
Reflective material.

Flip whenever you want. 3-4 weeks would be about average.

I agree with guy above. Use a black container. Get about 400 equivalent watts. They have 4 100 watt equivelant cfl bulbs at home depot for 12$. Then get 2 way splitters. Like in the picture I'll post. At home depot they are 3$ I'll post a link to that too. You can probably do your lighting for 20$ including extension cord. Then get a fan to keep your room cool. Like 75-82 degrees. They have little USB ones for cheap if you're short on space. Big thing is soil for you and lights.

Cfl bulb x4 - 6500k 100 watt Equivalent (23 actual watts per bulb) Cfl Bulbs. Great for Veg. They are mucher cooler in temp and have good spectrum for veg.

Im not vegging very long im gonna wait until it gets a couple branches then im going to put it into flowing . i know it sounds dumb i juat want to see if i can actually grow before i move to good seeds , fox farm and more lights . im also seeing if i can grow a couple . i learned that they need to be really close to the light bulb because my stalk is really thin and tall . this is basically a learning experience not really growing for ny other reason
