Pics look good. Just make sure you don't water again until the soil is dry. The leaves will be droopy. When the soil goes from a soft consistency to super hard, you can check about 1/2" down on the outside of the pot. If your finger comes out dry, then you are good to go.

Yeah that's why I just watered I checked today after work and it was real dry and brittle but the bottom of the pot is moist and when I was poking around the soil I poked to close to the plant and think I moved a root and the root came out a little and the plant fell over ! But I putt it back and put soil around the stem to hold it up hopefully it doesn't do to much to my baby you think it will be fine ?

That actually happened to Camille when she was a seedling. Nismo said it didn't come out, but loosened up a bit. He said he stood it back up, added soil to the base, then used some coated wire to prop it up.
It should be ok.

Love how you name them haha ! and I hope so if there is no growth by tomorrow after work Ima pop another bean

 

[Canna Montana]

I think it's in the marijuana growers code to name them. We like to think of a name related to the strain it is. For example, crown royal we named Elizabeth.

 

[Reeferchief07]

Ha I can't even think of one , my minds clouded in munchies and you think she should be fine with 2 65 watt cfls since she's just a baby

 

[Reeferchief07]

You got any idea what those brown tips would be would it be my soul being hot ?

 

[CannaOg]

Soul (soil)might be too hot or your watering to often let the pot dry out

You should be ok with the 2 cfl's for now anyways.. but your def gonna want to invest in either some more cfl's at least or and hid or led light sooner or later.. Good luck and i hope all goes well for you!
