Hey guys, cut to the point, I'm growing indoors
in my closet, my lights are 3 LED lights with total of 120watts, each lamp has 40watts, and 4000LM per lamp, that's a 12000LM in total
I got a digital automated Timer set for the whole week, for 20H, from 12AM to 8PM.

I'm using the following nutrients :
Flora Grow NPK: 2-1-6
Flora Micro NPK: 5-0-1
Flora Bloom NPK: 0-5-4
I'm adding the following for the first 2 weeks "I got through the first week so far":
Micro : 1ML
GRO: 1ML
BLOOM: 0.5ML
I add these to 3L of water and I water the soil whenever I see the medium is dry or about to dry
and to be sure about that I'm also sticking my finger into the soil deep enough to see if it's dry-moist- or watery

theses pics are from today 3/7/2021, I'm trying my best with it.
yesterday I moved the plant not from the pot, but it had a long stem so I buried some of it under the soil.

i thought the long stem was because of my lights, so I dropped it to 10cm, and I don't have humidifier so I have a plastic cup on top of the plant to keep the humidity up
I'm using coco soil, and I acquired the seed from a bud that I was smoking.

if there's any notes please tell me, and if there's anything that I'm doing wrong please correct me.
if everything goes nice, I guess I will have the plant ready to harvest in about 3.5 months
thank you and have a good day

P.S : if you could take a look at the leaf because kind of see it's a little bit lighter in color in a certain area
P.S 2 : In my country acquiring growing lights isn't easy, so the best i can do is white led lights. should I be concerned ?

Grower tip...

Watch the cat-o-don' or however it's spelled. False leaves.

Keep track to how long they stay brilliant green. The longer those things stay healthy. The better the overall growth.

Other then that. Relax. You have the rest of your life to grow this stuff. Excellent job so far.

i just didn't get the false leaves part, is there a false leaves in the plant that will grow ?

what can i do about the light if i couldn't get my hands on a growing lights ?
T5 fluorescent. CFL bulbs are 13 true watts. Check RIU Indoor Growing. At the top in its own section is lighting. Go there for help. Possibly you could build a good one with Samsung strips and a Meanwell driver

This is good advice. I have a few I have disassembled and am planning on trying to run em by daisy chaining them together. Just a experiment, but in your case maybe a solution.

Size of light depends on grow space, and expectations.

What are xpectations, and sq/ft of area. Its optimal to get 40.3w-sq/ft of the best LED diodes. Samsung/Osram to duplicate the sun.

2 x 2 is 4 sq/ft. 4 x 40.3=161.2w sq/ft, but they have to be the best diodes, or all bets are off. Others may work, but are not optimal. 2 x 2 is only an example.

I don't feed my seedlings at all for the first three weeks because they don't need. The cotyledons (fake leaves) have all the food the plant needs for its first few weeks. I killed a couple of seedlings (burned them to death - RIP) from thinking I can feed them when they were the size of your little ones. They look good...but be careful of feeding them at this stage, or you'll end up with KFC extra crispy. Good luck on your grow!

well what do you think about the type of light that i have and the space

As many as you can afford and fit over the plant. The more light the more weed.
I'm only expecting like 50gram of buds nothing huge, my space is limited as i mentioned, and for the light the best i can fit inside this is 5lamps in total, anymore i would have to move and think about different place to be able to hang more than just 5
