Basically 6 days ago I found a seed while rolling and I decided to start on this journey. Now just to make things clear, I am a complete noob and the only knowledge I have on the subject is from some reading that I have done in the past few days.
The seed is of the white widow strain if this helps in any way. Being in self-isolation somewhere in the mountaints I can't really buy any other resources so I would like to know how to use the resources that I have in an optimal way for this lil plant to grow healthy and maybe sometime in the future even make some clones of it.
Now, about my noob setup: Being in a very nice location I benefit from lots of sun but at night it gets very cold, usually around 2-7° C, so growing the plant outside for at least the next 1-2 months is out of discussion I think. What I can do is move the pot outside or at the window for it to benefit from the sunlight during the day, and when it gets dark put it under a light for it to complete its 20 hours light cycle before I give it 4 hours to sleep. Now the main reason I started this thread is to ask you which of the lights that I have I should use. I have a CFL 2700K of 20W which from what I read so far is way less than enough for one plant and a fairly more powerful Led light(17W which outputs 120W) with a CRI of 95 (might be fake?) and also 2700K. The problem is that the led is a normal led light, not a grow led light, so I am not sure wether it works for growing.. there is no PAR indication available on the led's box so I wouldn't know if it's suitable or not for growing. Should I use the 20w cfl or the 120w led?
Also, another question I would have is wether I should move it outside and if yes, when?
I forgot to mention the plant is already in its 5th day of growth, and I have been using a 20-4 cycle since the beggining, with a combination of sunlight(when available) and artificial light.
Any help an advice would be highly appreciated!
