Well your first lesson as a grower is.. you've got to spend the cash to get the hash
So you need a bit of money my friend.
Use a T5, that will be good for Vegging the plants, and when flowering the plants get a HPS light, which will set you back $90-400, depending on where you buy.

need more light about 6 42 watt cfl should do ok and keep thme in the kelv rang of about 2700k for flower and 6800k for veg flower when they get to about 6 inches tall to keep the plant as small as you can to get the light to pen all the way some will argue about that but real i get about 6 7 ounces from one to two plants if i do it that way cause of the tight nugs and good light pen and im not the only one seemorebuds has a book out called buds for less about cfl growing and i think you should lookinto it its a cfl grow and he gets like 8 ounces from 3 plants gl keep reading theonly way you learn round here

its going to be hard as new grower, when your ready at least start with HID

yes it can be done with smaller bulbs but you have to be pretty good and it takes constant light movement and proper ferts. Get this light its dummy proof and when your ready get a bigger one and use this for veg, if you cant get a light its probably because your not old enough to work so be careful and dont grow in parents house if you are

Just stick with the one plant for now then and when your ready cut some clones after you get more lighting. This way you can get more from the one you currently have. Just keep the lights as close as you can
