looking good, but tad bit stretchy, and i think leaves could also be little bigger but that could be due to not enough light.

try to get a more powerfull light as soon as possible, your really isn't much powerfull (entry model is 10W only and other models from the link you sent are not much more watt either not sure wich one you got)

actually i would leave her in the window with direct sunlight and turn on the light over her when you no longer get direct sunlight to supplement indirect light.

also 16/8 light schedule is fine for veg that's what i m doing.
Thanks! I'll move her back, I think then once she's no longer getting direct sunlight, I'll set the lamp timer to 12 hrs (total should turn be about 20hrs of direct and artificial) but I'll definitely get a better light ordered 👍🏼

also don't forget about ventilation if you put in the cupboard, it might be toast with the heat without extraction (especially in summer) otherway, and you 'll get higher chance of mold in flower if you don't evacuate some of the humidity from transpiration
 
(also next important step would be a small (preferably ocsillating) fan in between canopy top and light, it help mitigate hot spot under the lamp )

(you could eventually live without it, but better with it, airflow is important for a few things)

Thanks, currently it's at the window and I've got it opened slightly but once I put the lights on it I'll put the fan on it
 
Hi @HerbalEdu ...So last night I up potted her, fresh soil, compacted. Ran the shower over her, added a litre of water with 2ml of biobuzz grow.

She's back in the window but isn't looking quite as happy as she did before up potting and the top soil looked very dry, so I've topped it up.

Is it normal for her to be like this after a change or do you think I may have done some damage?

As if by magic... She's perked up within 30 minutes of giving her a good drink (it's super hot here in the UK at the moment, 31⁰C... So I wonder if she's got a thirst)

Ouch that's pushing it. I had 35⁰ registered on the outside temp read out in the car just now... Back home after work and just checked on her, so far so good (I know I still need to get some decent lights)
 
i have year with up to 38 inside the tent it's not pratical for me to control temp and humdity and even sometime had 40 42 heat spike, plant are suffering but well bad season art part of the game, next grow cycle will be better with temperature when this one finish, this cycle might just be a little toast but well gonna fill the jar and taste good enough so i m fine with that
 
Any idea why this has happened? Top soil is dry but beneath still has moisture. I haven't fed her since Tuesday.

Could it be that she's over fed? Lower leaves that haven't completely given up are not as green as the higher leaves... Any suggestions?
