how much light do i give? and when do i start the light cycle? should i do anything in particular when the leaves start to show?? and i already have a light bulb. its a 40 watt clear spectrum bulb i got from target. and i did some research but its kinda confusing because theres like the 24/7 cycle,18/6,and 12/12 . so far its been on 24/7 and its on its 3rd day.
Buy four 26 actual watt daylight cfl's and place within 2" of your plant for 24 or 18 hours a day. Water and fertilize as required.
You really should read up in the beginners section. Starting a grow before you know what you're doing is a sure recipe for failure. Not being harsh, just realistic. You're environment should be fully functioning, with the kinks worked out, before you even think about germing any seed.
Well, okay! Really? First, your plant needs light. Have you purchased lights? If not, then you should probably go with CFLs.... read this: http://forum.grasscity.com/general-indoor-growing/122824-kamels-cfl-guide.html
