My first grow oops.

I can't tell you when I started this but it's my first one, I got two but I'm convinced the other is not going to make it, it suffered a decapitation at the hand of my girlfriend. I forgave her, because now I got the top of it I'm trying to get to survive. It hasn't died yet.

The one I'm focusing my efforts on is this one, a picture taken 6 days ago.



This picture above is a picture of my plant I took 6 days ago that I started in a cup, and transplanted it to the pot it's in now after I had seen the roots wrapping around the sides of the cup for a few weeks. I transplanted it to the bigger pot when my other plant lost it's top due to a light falling on it. I figured I'd try to save one of them.


This picture is of the top of the bigger plant 6 days ago.



It looks pretty good at the top to me?! Could be bigger I suppose.


Here's a picture of the whole plant a week later, today.



I cut a few leafs off of the bottom, because I figured they were looking close to death so I'd stop these dying leafs from sucking nutrients from the top of the plant.



Here's a piture of the top I took today.




It's looking nice at the top, but that seems to be the only part of the plant that's flourishing.



Here's a picture of what I've cut off so far.




If I can save the bottom leafs I'd like to try, I just don't know what to do.



I've been vegetating this plant under a CFL that is supposed to be equal to 100W incandescent light bulb.

They get a light cycle of 18/6 and I know the tinfoil is the worse thing I can use. I got myself a can of some white paint I'm going paint the walls with soon.

Any ideas or suggestions would be very helpful. I'm sure I can keep this big plant alive long enough to get it to flower, and maybe harvest if it's not a male, I'd just it to be a little fuller, not keep getting it's leaves chopped off!

Thanks in advance!
