im nearly in the third week of flowering and nothing seems to be happening i thought something would change when i switched to 12/12 but it just seemed to slow down in growth its just now showing signs of sex but my plant seems to be taking forever to grow i stopped giving it nutrients when it got burned its healthy and seems fine but it just seems like its not going to do anything else but keep growing nodes and no bud

your plant is stretched so badly. you kept your light to far away when vegging. how old is your plant all together?

that light your using aint gonna do shit. And its waaaay to far away from your plant.

If you want ANY buds at all, you Need some cfl's. Even then your gonna not get much bud and its gonna be poor quality. You should read the FAQ's before starting any grow.

Its probably not even worth growing anymore. It has the same amount of leaves as my 1 1/2 week old plant.

at the moment i cant afford anything i had to make do with what i had around the house the problem was with the lighting being to far away was that i had them close to the plant and it started to wilt so is it just not going to grow anything at this point or is it just going to put out poorly

You can skimp on a lot of things i.e.,cheap soil,cheap nutes,tap water,plastic bottles for pots etc......

i have another bulb just like the one im using and another lamp could i just plug the bulb in and use two lamps on it rather than get a whole new setup or would that be pointless

It all depends on what the lights are, you are using the wrong type of light , you need to read the grow faq.
