lose the foil thats what happen to me similar setup but temps were crazy high and 90 degrees it super max between 70-85 degrees is ideal the foil serves as a reflector to the light which increases the temps

Foil can cause heat ploblems from what I hear. Never tried it myself. You said you have 1 fan. I a little box like that you will need an intake and exhaust.

They seem to be stretching a little. Move the light to about 2 or 3 in above the plants.

Nothing but TLC will help with getting more females. They are what they are from the begining. So if its male its male. The TLC helps prevent hermies. Stress them as little as possible.

Hope this helps a little.:peace:​

Go to the FAQ page. Almost all your questions can be answered there. I have come to learn that unless you really have something interesting to say not many people are willing to tell you much. I am still a newbie but for the stats you listed it seems like your doing well.

Yeah man no-one is helping cuz your doing good. :) So far so good. Like Moto said, read the GrowFaq. upper left on screen. There is a ton of info in there. Everything you need really.
Oh and cph is right, move the light closer. your plant is growing too tall (its called stretching) because its trying to reach up for MORE LIGHT. Thats why you've got it propped up with a stick. When you transplant, bury it deeper, right up to the bottom node. And give it a LITTLE breeze to strengthen the stalk.

thanx man... and i know about the light i used to have a 12w small flourescent light and thats why it streched. I didn't put the light close cuz i was afraid the heat is gonna burn it cuz it was allready 90 degrees in the room.

to comment about your setup thats a str8 setup. i got a similar with fluoros and even though their not the best they can work for any stage. just i woulda planted more seeds or got more from the friend which ever way ytou got this one because if one messes up you still have the other to work with and it gets better in multiples. but good luck man and dont over nutrient it. it will grow bud either way if its female and just this first time watch how the plant grows and the bud spots and keep it under atleast 18 hrs so you can clone it before you flower it.
