HELP NEEDED, i'm a newbie

[IBMhiphop]

Ok, first i wanna say that i'm a newb to growing, and i dont have the fancy lamps nd stuff, i only got water and a seedling, but the seedling had a lack of light so the stem grew very long, so i had to put it back in the light, i did that but at the same time the stem sorta snapped, not completely its only bent. and with the handling in try to put it right the stem broke at soil level, so i just digged a hole and put it back in there, its now 2 days later and the plant seems to be doing fine, but i'm worried, is she allright?
and how should i solve this problem? can it grow further or is she gonna die
help pls i want to invest in this if i need to buy something just tell me what, but the problem is i'm livin in belgium and the growshops are only avaible through post order, and i'm afraid the lamp is gonna break during the trip please help
here is a pic:

Maybe you can add support to it and put it under a cfl so it grows straight up .

i have put a lamp from a lava lamp about 60 cm from the plant, and i have a cardboard box around it with alu foil
it just needs light i think, but will the plant burn/require more water ?

...#1 novice grower's mistake = overwatering.
...don't water your soil until it is dry. Good luck....do you have drainage holes in that pot?

 

[IBMhiphop]

but will it require more water now that there is a light close to it ? do i need to buy a fan or something to cool it down ?
i have put some holes in it with a pencil, sorry for my english, im from belgium

...that's not the issue. The issue is, you planted a cannabis seed and have no idea what to do now.....and that's because you wasn't prepared....you didn't do any research at all. Read the stickies of this forum. Here, let me direct you....this link ---> https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/

the best thing for you to do , get a box "DONT USE FOIL" it creats hotspots and burn the leaves , use mylar or emergency blanket , put your light 20 cm from the top of the plant , get a small fan or a pc fan and it should be fine

 

[IBMhiphop]

thanks all, it was a great information, i'm gonne buy a small fan or pc fan, and ill update

 

[smallclosetgrowr]

alo foil is fine , that hotspots shlt is a myth. dude u cant grow a cannabis plant from the fking lava light lol. either ditch the lanky plant or go buy a 2$ CFL.

Hey i'm new and having problems with my 1st grow too so prob best not to try giv you advice on growing lol, but just wanted to let you kno i ordered my light off eBay from a hydroponic shop and it arrived safe and very well packaged i live in N.Ireland and ordered from England, but i mean i could of kicked this box and the contents wud of been fine lol, anyways good luck with your grow

 

[Alborosie]

are you sure ?

 

[dannyboy602]

It looks like the seedling is planted too high. The root and the stem are both above ground. Mb put some soil around the base and plant it a little deeper. The stem bent. Not a good sign. It might not survive. Good luck

i installed a 60W CFL bulb about 25 cm from the plant
as so:

will the plant burn now ?

 

[trichome fiend]

...that's not going to burn your plant. Most put the CFL 2-4 inches (6-12 cm) away from the plant.

 

[Alborosie]

If you put it 15 cm would be better .
