1st time grow!!

Im gonna post an upppdated pic of my plant once a week, using the help from u guys, and maybe ill have a nice successful grow, also can i send this plant into 12-12 in 2 weeks after i FIM it twice? I really just wanna speed the prrocess of this up, cuz i dont like to just grow one plant at once, so hopefully its female and i can get started on my shelf growing, also wut kind of lighting do u guyys recomend, is mine any good? i was thinking about gettin an HID, from wut i been hearing its pretty good, but i dont know the wattage i need to get or how far away to keep it from the plant, lemme no, thanks

I'm new to growing as well but looks kind of long in between your first node. People tell me to put the lights closer but not so close that it burns your plants. So far, my plant's doing well except for iron deficiency i think. But, we'll see. I don't know when to switch to 12/12 but, I'm planning to go 12/12 when my plant starts seeing signs of sex.
