without lights you may as well just throw the plant away. It will not grow without light.You will never harvest any smokable material unless you improve your lighting situation now. CFL ( Compact Fluorescent lights) are cheap and will work to get you a harvest, they aren't the best but they will work.

There is no such thing as flowering too early or too late, you can flower from the second the seed pops above ground, or you can veg for a few years and grow a 50 foot tall plant and flower it then. no right or wrong time to go into flowering.
