get a cfl grow light, not just a bulb for your house
when it comes time to flower, get a HPS light

Top the shit out of it and put in under a 400 watt.

No, not $400 but probably 300 when you get some fans and stuff. Bottom line, do you want to grow good buds or just some spindly ass waste of time. If there was a cheaper way then people would do it. You can grow weed super cheap..like your doing. "real" buds take time and money to produce.

you would probably get away with a 250w hps if your just growing 1 plant. iv currently harvested 6 ounces off 4 plants under a 250w so should be plenty and with less heat. all youl need is your extractor, a clip on fan blowing across the top off the canopy and you shouldnt have a problem

^Is that 6 ounces off each plant? Or was that the total?
Do you think 50 degrees is too cold for my grow room?
I can probably bump it up a little bit to 55 or something, but its not heated.
Since it just sprouted should i put it somewhere else until it grows a little bit before putting it in my colder grow room?
And also I can just put it as close as to my CFL as possible right? as long as its not hot?
And should I keep it in its humidity tent for a while?

that was total weight i had a few ph problems also so that mightave effected yeild but still gd under a 250 hps. i would move the plant if its just sprouted to sumwhere a lil warmer at least 60 degrees for a few weeks till alil bigger. yes try and kep the cfl as close as possible without touching the plant. sometimes my tent fallsdown into the 50s but id advise getting a lil heater for your grow room if possible, you want around 75 when lights are on and around 60-64 lights off.

keep your seedling as close as you can to the cfl
when it gets established, put it under your HPS... 250W will do for one plant, but 400 will give you better yeild
the HPS light will help keep things warm in your grow area
if your worried you could get a cheap fan heater on a timer to turn on when the lights go out to keep the warmth up

alright thanks guys.
Its doing good so far, even in the low temperature. What do you think of around 50% humidity?
I think I'm going to go with a 400, and I got a small desk fan i can use.
Stick around for it being a female (its a feminzed seed) and i'm going to try my hand at cloning.

id switch to the hps after the 3rd set of leaves. remember to gradually lower the hps towards the plant over a period of time when she is still a seedling.

how far away should i start it from the plant?
Also, my leaves seem to curve downwards, thats not a bad thing is it?
and when could i start adding some nutrients to its water? i should wait until its been under the HPS a little bit, right? Because I use fish emulsion and I am not sure how much i'm gonna start it with
