First time...
Ok so 16 days old today
Coco soil and canna fert
Barney Crimea blue
71 deg avg. 60% avg
Topped 2 days ago
About 17 inches now
These guys are not bushy and it's most likely my fault I have some LED lights that might not be the best I'm not sure how to save these guys to get some buds. not really sure what to do, how to lst them if pssbl now?

If you have very specific advice I would be happy. I only have about 6 inches left in room, up that is......

I just can't visualize how to train or what to bend or how to move these around that i can get the more of the colas that I've read about to produce some but I'm not an ignorant person I'm just kind of new at this and don't seem to be doing very well I'm not young either so I got a lot of experience and things just not this. Your help is greatly appreciated thanks for your time and have a great day.

Look close after 1st node stem gets. Thicker?

Lights are:
TaoTronics 24w Led Grow light Bulb , Grow Plant Light

Couldn't hurt to expose your girl to more light. What's the total sum of the LED wattage? (From the outlet) or best guess or snap a pic of your light.

They are supposed to be 24 watt..

Weird thing is this... i used an appcalled 'light-o-meter' and on the left is shows 1500 lux and on the right 7000 lux. EVEN when i switch the bulbs..... weirdhuh? I hooked then up with wired bulb sockets....

If i can get seom cfls got any idea to get more bud on this skinny dogs?

Thanks for helping!

A 1000w led is equivalent to a 400w hps in my eyes so 1 of them lil bulbs will never get you across the finish line

So does anyone think i could use one of these to create as many as possible clones? From what i've read not so much but its hard for me to say.. This way i could take one of them and clone as many as possible and with the other just see what happens with some new bulbs and switch to flowering...

Thanks all!

You can grow with Cfl's.
Agrobrite has some full spectrum 125 and 200 watt setups.
I use 1 200watt cfl under a hood and supplement that with 3 40 watt 2700k cfl bulbs
