ok, i know everyone starts out a newb. shit im still a newb. but i did months of research and reading up on grows, setting up and into flowering. different soil choice, nute choices, organic or chem. i strongly suggest you do some of that searching yourself. you will learn more that way than asking 10 questions in a single thread.
ill ansewer this Q as well. i put my germ seeds in a seed starter kit. watered daily or every other day to keep moist. now im in 1qt grow containers. i water when needed. i lift the pot and feel the weight, and do the finger test. finger in soil about 3/4"-1". if dry, i water, if moist soil comes out, i wait another day.
be patient, and relax. dont rush ito getting your plant super tall super quick, as is isnt gonna happen. sit back and relax. and search and learn about growing. its what i did, and countless of thousands of growers have done or are currently doing.
