I have 2 plants I had them in some cheap potting soil at first and now around there very nice tight root ball I have put them into organic miracle gro I had lights on both but I have a tall one that is about 24 inches there about 33 days old lighting I have two lights on the one that has preflowers, she is doing amazing. The taller one has no preflowers yet and the leaves are curling under (random bagseed- might be the same kind but not sure) they grew at the same rate.
