First timer 
. Growing THC Bomb and auto Bud Cannon. the seeds geminated in 2 1/2 days in wet paper towels. I planted both in generic lowes soil with no time release nutes, in 5 gallon buckets. I soaked the soil with dis water the day before and let sit. 28 hours in soil, both plants have sprouted thru the soil. I did 24 hour lights, each plant under 150w CFL just inside the top of the bucket roughly 3" frm seedlings.
I put a small amount of dis water around the seedlings and at the 48 hour mark, i cut the lights off to start 18/6 light cycle. 48 hours later, no growth. I know im just panicking but, considering the speed they have gone so far, im a lil concered. Advice any one on anything above please i dont expect to do great this first run, just trying to learn and i went the semi cheap route but id like to smiz a lil at the end lol. Bud cannon is supposedly 28% thc the soil is kinda thick but they busted out fast. I do have two 100w CFLs to add for the sides when they grow above the rim. I added a small amount of miracle grow food when i soaked the soil but i dont intend to use nutes any further. I dont plan to ph test either lol just want a first crack at it to learn plus, i know a few growers that keep to the basics and do well. I could only find 2700k bulbs so i started with those, i have ordered 6500k's tho. Thanks in advance for any advice or comments
