Do you have proper drainage, are you feeding it nutes, what soil is that, whats tied around the base in the pic, what light is it under and where, I could go on but without some extra info I dont think anyone could help you.

proper drainage, yes
nutes, no
its regular potting soil

that was a little twisty tie that I was using to hold the plant up, it was weak because I didn't have proper lighting at first
when I transplant, I will bury the weak part of the stem into the soil

i'm using CFL bulbs for a total of 8750 lumens whose color temperature is 2700K


do you think its time to transplant to a bigger pot?

is it time to start nutes? I've been looking all over - where do I find the right ones, I can only find ones for like outdoor plants and lawns and shit

any help is appreciated!

yeah transplant to a bigger pot with better soil atleast throw some perlite in it i think that soils funky esp if you didnt even feed

How old? Usually the top couple leaves will turn yellow when all the nutes from the soil are used up. When that happens you need to introduce nutes.

i've been to a few garden centers and i'm not really sure what nutes to get.

I know i'm supposed to get one thats high in nitrogen for the vegging stage, but most plant foods I see have a balanced ratio between the 3

anyone know any brands or whatever or recommendations of where to get them

Sweet I will stop by the garden center and see what they have tomorrow.

[QUOTE="SmokinForever";2850759]get 6500k's for veg dude they work a hell of a lot better and use the 2700k's for flower[/QUOTE]

I guess i'll order some 6500K's - the 2700K will do for now though right?
