    So, this is my first grow. I was given a random seed, and i was told that it was from an unknown strain. So i wasn't really setup at first to begin this seed, but i figured it would be a fun little side hobby. I dont smoke marijuana, because of a medical condition which it doesn't seem to help, but sort of make it worse. Also i have to keep my job in order to pay the bills. I do however love growing the plants! They are so beautiful and majestic looking.
     
     So anyway, i started by using a 4 foot cabinet that is hanging on my wall in my room. It has a few removable shelfs, which are made of a thick press board. So i needed a Light fixture in there as well. I took apart a old lamp i had laying around, and kept the top part of it with the fixture, added a Door Handle cover (the part that screws into the door), reversed it, and screwed in the fixture into the press board to hang it upside down in the cabinet.
     
     For the pot and soil, i had a plastic 6" terra pot, and took some soil from the flower garden in the front yard. I the put the seed into the soil, and watered it. Waited a day or two, and didn't notice any sprout yet, and got worried that maybe i had put it in to far. I actually dug the seed back out, noticed that it did split, and had the root coming out, then burried it back into the soil at a more shallower level. Another day passed and it came out of the ground. I had a sprout!
     
     I will post some pictures of day by day, and i am starting this journal a little late, but i have pictures from day one of sprouting. So you wont be missing out.

    My light setup at first...it was really amature, i know..but hey it worked.

    Oh and about this time, i actually did a transplant. Since the pot i had started with was something i grabbed out of the front garden area in my yard, it had a spider egg apparently under the top lip of it. Well it hatched and i was freaking the fuck out. Had little tiny bright orange spiders running around all over. So i got my plant out of there, and bought a brand new pot (same size), threw in some Jiffy Seed starting mix, and put the dug out sprout into the fresh pot. It's been doing great.
     
    3 Weeks after sprouting.

    So around this time i ordered a new light. It's a 24Watt Apollo PAR38 LED Grow Light Bulb. Full spectrum Veg to Bloom. For being only 24watts, this thing blinds the fuck out of me.  It is a very awesome bulb. Thinking about picking up another.
     
    New bulb.

    My plant today.

     So also to note, when i got this seed, i was joking with my friend about how you dont really need to buy expensive equipment for doing something like this. So i said, you know what..i am going to grow this plant, with just straight up water, and soil. Nothing fancy...(light bulb was an exception, since it's pretty dark in my room). I dont care how much longer it will take to grow, or it's yeild size. As of right now, my plant is doing great, and it seems like it's going to be a very bushy plant. It's already getting leaves everywhere. I know i have seen some plants much bigger than this at this stage in life..but we will see where it goes.
     
    Please let me know what you think!
     
    Thanks!

    The Think Different up and sprouted. Also, a quick update on the other one. Shortly after I moved her into that bigger pot, she filled that one up with roots. She has them coming out of the bottom of the pot into the water tray. She's getting even more leaves now.
