Help me grow dis

[loonmtn4]

so about a week ago i planted this seed for shits and giggles. When it sprouted, I thought it was really cool and now I want to grow it. I have no idea how to do this but I want to do this in the easiest way possible. Like do I need to buy a light or can i keep it in the window sill. Any help would be awesome.

its def stretched i would buy a few cfl grow lights off ebay or any local hardware store and put it in your closet or build a grow box for it.

Get that thing repotted into some soil and bury it up to those first set of leaves.
Actually leave a half inch between those leaves and the soil surface.

Lower your lights and don't let it stretch again. Then get a breeze going across it via a
small fan so it can get strong.

some people say you can leave it on all day, but I like to give my plant some rest.

I do 18 hours of light, and 6 hours of dark.

you should only water when the soil is dry, so stick your finger in the soil about 1-2 inches and if it is dry then give it a lil water.

I have to put about a bottle of water in my plant about every other day/

thanks for the help sorry im so new at this. if i add one other of these lights, just cuz i only have one more, will it work just not as quickly?

You should get 6500K aka "bright white" CFLs for the vegetative stage, and yes it'll grow a lot slower without proper lighting. Do some reading (namely the stickies) and you'll get a better picture of whats involved.
