Is my plant going to die?

my plant hasbeen growing for about a week and a half. It is bout 3 1/2 inches tall. and it is bending over. It has two leaves with two smaller leaves. is there something wrong with it? should i tie a stick to it?

it's fine. add a little more soil, prop it with a pen or stick, and give it more light.

I think your plant is stretching too much for the light.

It needs more light and possibly a higher temp.

Tying it to a stick may help, but ultimately its going to just stretch and stretch and get thinner and weaker until it either dies or reaches more light/heat.

i just tied it to a gardening stick. but i have it inside. and it sits in a big window all day. i water it once in the morning. i fill a waterbottle cap about 7 times and put that in. is that enough water and sun?

it looks great. its stretching bcuz the light intensity is weak where its at. moove the light closer to reduce stretching

Im not sure how much water it technically requires, but I use spray mist bottle and I just water whenever the soil is dry an inch below the surface. Just stick your finger in the soil and whenever it feels dry, give it some love.

alright thanks man. and also ive done like a lot of research on growing and stuff. and it says that it takes like 4 months for the plant to grow. but i was wondering if like there was a way that i cld cause the plant to grow buds at an earlier stage. like when it is a foot tall or something. because i dont have the storage to hold a plant that is really tall.

you shouldnt water every morning. . give it a good watering, let the soil dry up, not completely though then water again. . are you planning to put this plant outside? if not, what type of lighting will you use for flowering?

you can flower plants any time you want. . i doubt you will get any results with it just sitting in the window though. . you need HID lighting. . and it doesnt take four months for a plant to veg. . on average i would say indoor growers tend to veg for about a month (unless topped). . then flower for two. . depending on the strain. .

I wasnt planing on putting the plant outside cuz i dnt want it to get affected by bugs. and the woods in my area is heavily populated by deer and the weather has been very unpredictable as well. So your saying i should get an indoor light? and where could i get the light? like at any planting store?

theres many different lights you can get, depends on how much you wanna spend on them, you have a set price you wanna stick to?

i mean. i dont want to get a shitty one but i dont need to get like the top of the line. I just need one that will get the job done well and in good time. but i can spend up to like $40

all that your little guy is doing, is looking its leaves out the window to collect all the sunlight it can. bending is ok, but overhead light will allow your plant to grow out (fan leaves) and up if the light is plentiful.

hahaha the poll dont look good for ur plant loooool

haha yea i made the last section as a joke. cuz i dnt think it can be terrible at all for a first time grow.

i dont want to sound like a dick man, but did you do any research at all before you planted your seed? im assuming your not set up for HID lighting if you are. . you can get them online or at a hydro shop. . the cheapest way is using cfl's.. you should be able to find those anywhere. . like walmart.. you can try to grow your pot next to the window ive never done it. . but that sounds like it will be more of a headache and a waste of time. .

yea man i did do research. and i just figured that i am using the same light that an outdoor plant would be getting so wats the problem with growing it in a window?

40 bucks? try going with clf's. Just grab some bulbs and light sockets.

i mean. i can definetly spend more than $40. i dont know where the price starts for the lights tho. and wat is the problem with me using natural light by putting the plant in a window

i used a stick and tied the plant to it. does this look like it will help the plant grow straight?
