New to growing need help

So the cotyledon leaves are turning yellow and I guess they are supposed to die off?? What is supposed to happen after this stage? I am using a 100 wt cfl bulb. Should I leave them on 24/7 light? My plant is almost a month old

well first off you needa upgrade that light. it might work but the buds will not grow to there full potential. HTG supply on E-bay is a great place for supplys.

if your growin under 4 plants you can go with a 150w or 250 watter. if ur growin u need HID(highintensitydischarge) CFL dont have nothing on HID .if you want big buds go with HID
the fan leaves start dying off in flowering.if ur seein colors you might have a lil nute burn. but that lil girl looks good.....start a grow journal

Yeah only doing a single plant not trying to get too expensive with the stuff, i mean i would love to but im broke right now. Do HID come in like bulbs or tubes? all the other leaves besides the cotyledons are a nice healthy looking green. But I will check out some stuff thanks for the references. Also I feel like it is taking awhile to grow its only about 3 inches tall. Should I keep em on 24/7 light for now? And the two fan leaves above the cotyledons fall of also?

CLICK ME CLICK ME CLICK ME CLICK ME. Quick question, is your CFL an equivalent or actually putting out 100w? Ppl always get that mixed up. What you think is 100w can just be a 27w.

It is a 100 w but the package says uses like 25 or something

man CFLs are great you just need more and wat cesar said is it really 100 watt or just equivalent, if it is only a 27 watt u will need alot more im growing wit CFls now and these are at 3weeks i have one 85 watt and five 27 watts
