New Grower Hello and a Newbie question

[Ldb7121]

I have read so much information on here, my head is spinning, but I appreciate all the help, my question is, I have 4 jock horror plants 7 days old today, the only lighting I have is 60 watt daylight deluxe 4ft fluorescents, I think the plants are doing well, it is a beautiful sunny day here, can I shift them into sunlight, and back to lights at night? I have always grown flowers and vegetables from seed and used the water from my small pond for watering, can I use the same water on these plants or will that cause a problem?

Welcome to AFN my friend..

The plants will veg under that light fine, they will not flower very well at all. Going to need more light than that to get some nice buds..

The water, you're using uncontrolled water.. while I'e heard of people using pond water for watering as it contains a great many microorganisms, pot is a little different.. it may work, but what are you using for nutrients? The plants will need more than pond water..

What do you have for your grow currently on hand? That will give us a better idea of what to recomnend you to invest into and help you prioritize..

Look forward to hearing from you!

Thanks for the reply, do you have a suggestion to what lights I can add? I haven't used pond water on them only rain water, I have 4 plants, about 2 inches tall, they have 2 sets of leaves and have not really stretched much I have the lights about 2 inches above them, when should I change the lighting from veg to flower, and is it going to hurt them by putting them in the sun in the daytime? I have so many questions, thank you so much for your help.
