Growing 3 babys, some advice please? *pics*

Okay so I've tried growing in the past.. but without any luck, outside and inside,

I had a cat and it used my pots as kitty litter so yeah.. lol

but now I really want to grow and be successful
I have 3 babys growing 2 in one pot and 1 seperate, the one that is seperate has a thin stem idk why but what can I do to toughen her up?

In the big pot one stem is red which I'm hoping is a goodthing, so yeah here's some pics and I just wanna know how am I doing and what can I improve on?

Many thanks

2 in 1 pot isn't a good idea. To toughen up then stretched seedling put a little fan on it and get the light closer. What kind of light is that? Probably no enough light to grow anything of a decent size. Buy some cfls. 6500 k for veg and 2700k to flower. You should do some reading next time before you plant. Try see more buds buds for less for a quick course on what to expect. Then get yourself a grow bible. Like from greg green, jorge cervantes or ed rosenthal. knowledge is power!

cool cool great advice man, im just winging it lol thanks

and they are regular plant/ aquarium lights

Hello, thanks for sending me your link. I agree with bostoner, a small fan will work great for your little dinky stems - the breeze toughen up the stems. That light you have isn't going to work for long...lol! I am using cfl's I found on sale for $.99 and am having good luck with my grow - check out my journal. FRIGGEN CATS....lol, they love weed, probally ate some of your leaves too! You've gotta get your lights close if you end up using cfl's. Also, the tin foil thing isn't going to help in this stage - it's actually a breeding ground for bacteria I hear if you cover a plant up with anything.
Don't give any food to them yet, what kind of dirt are you using? Whats your light schedule like? If you give us some more info we can help you figure out how to get those ladies some nice fat buds!

lol yeah my cat loved to get high with me, itll run around can crash into things haha and yeah ill def check it out
strictly water for now and the dirt, its a mix of soil from outside and miracle grow moisture control, the lights i leave on for 16 hours and 8 hrs off, like a regular day i suppose, and yeah the foil i put because i also felt the lights werent gonna be good enough so i wanna reflect as much as i can but ill take it out i agree about the bacteria growth that i overlooked

If you have a t5 full spec light you will be fine for a while i use 1 to grow my little ones will be good for 3 weeks or so before you need more but if you add another you should get a good plant start to finish just make sure you have a reflector and drop them to within inches

so far so good chief the little seedlings can stay in one pot for another couple weeks until you are ready to put them into their own pots. IDK why ppl are afraid of handling seedlings. they move well. i just keep the soil moist and water them in after i replant them. they are a weed after all.
Make up a mix with some lime in it. and some perlite. when you replant they will become nice and green. I like the three gallon pots for their flowering stage. good luck

Yeah you make sense dannyboy602 fo sho

Anything you grow yourself is ALWAYS the best shit in the world ... LOL!

So I began this grow around january with 3 plants
This is a picture of them around mid feb

It is now may, one plant was male so I discarded him, one of the plants ( the tallest) has buds with long white hairs and crystals, it smells fantastic too, I think I might be burning it also :/ the light cycle is 6 hours on and the rest off, the smaller plant doesn't seem to be growing buds yet but I see plenty hairs poking out

These are how they look now..
