@nick88 the sun its on my window seal im a very noob grower
If your going to use sunlight you need to ut them somewhere the sun can get to them at diff angles if not theyre going to stretch like crazy to 1 side. If nothing else get you a few cfls and lace those a few inches over the tos of them, then in a coule of days if they still look stretched, lower them a lil

their like that because their growing towards the sun so i have to rotate the pots so they grow the other direction
is there anyway you can ut them outside for at least a few hours a day so they can get sun directly.

Until you can afford to get some lights, get them all the sun you can and turn them as often as ossible and dont water until soil drys out. Once theyve recovered and starting to show some healthy new growth, you will need to translant them down to the lowest leaf set to fix the stretching theyve already done. Just do the best you can with hat youve got and study and learn as much as you can in the mean time. Dont wait til you have roblems to learn things cause by the time you find the answer it may be too late.
Good luck bro and kee us osted on how theyre doing

When it comes to soil, moist is wet bro. You want to wait until the to inch or so is totaly dry. Even then the soil in middle and bottom will still be moist . Your lighting has alot to do with how often you will need to water. What lights are you using
No offense, but thats not gonna fix the problem and is still overwatering. the soil needs to be dry before you water again, not just the first few inches.


original poster- That is without a doubt overwatering now that ive seen the pics. when you say grow for cash you mean your expecting to be able to sell it and get a good/decent chunk of change and keep some for personal smoke? cuz thats extremely unlikely for this sort of grow, you should be very happy if you can manage to get an 1/8 dry a plant.

Hey bro, I like your effort in all this, and all the stuff your going through. The only way you could increase the finish product is to give it the best care and life. You're going to need some powerful lights and time. If you can somehow get it outside in the sun for at least a couple hours a day, that's be great. Maybe you got some woods by you or something?

You probably broke the taproot...this isnt fatal,as if you wouldve broke some of the other root system. Youy might lose all the leaves on the plant but it wont die..im speaking from experience.

I seriously doubt that you found out it was female unless you got a feminized seed from someone and they just happen to let you know now because seeds dont show there sex till like 6-8 nodes... BTW if you are planning on making any money from growing you need to invest $ into it, the more $ you invest in good and proper equipment the more you would make. If your trying to do this the cheapest possible way then you need to be growing your plants outside because you wont need to buy lights. Even if you don't have the $ to buy all the equipment you should be able to buy a piece at a time till you get enough together to make a proper room. If you end up doing things half assed like you are now you will end up getting half assed results and you will have wasted months for a few grams of bud.
