This is my random set up I could do in a short period of time. It was gonna freeze outside so had to dig up my plant n place it inside. Seems to be striving well and yes I know I need to change the pot but was I had for moment… any help be much appreciated.. and the light is producing 5000 lux i believe for this stage..

Hard to tell what will happen just yet. Unless you have more snails. If you have more snails... well... at least you made it this far.
Tell us about your soil. If that is a legit grow light, check with the manufacturer recommendations for distance between it and the top of your plant.

Welcome John
Snails make great fertiliser..good job.
Patience is a virtue at this stage and when late flowering.
You need more light than that, at least double at this stage and next week you will need triple.
Lux is a poor measurement for plants. Read up on PAR and PPFD and safe amounts at different stages. DLI is key here.
You will need 8 to 10 times more light than that in late veg which I'm guessing will be in 6 to 8 weeks or so. Read up on topping and mainlining and do your best to follow those instructions and if you pull off this grow you will have enough bud to last you the whole year and some.

Thank you for your reply!! The snails was a accidental touch idk they helped the plant.. and I will try my best get all the supplies u mentioned im kinda on a budget but will definitely get better lights n fans n get everything lil by lil for my grow. Thank u for the tips n love!

Huh? No-no... snails are bad for plants. If you have more, at least you grew your plant this far and probably won't get much further.

Okay. Let's put the cryptic, smarmy responses aside for a moment. We'll get back to those, later. I'm sure.
Snails are bad for gardens if you want successful gardens. Snails and slugs (homeless snails) eat leaf matter. One snail will eat your little sprout faster than you thought a snail could eat. It's still pretty slow, but you get me.
Their shells are fine if you make sure they don't have any snail hormones or snail pheromones or snail stank that would attract other snails. It is also not a good idea to crush snails in-situ. They need to be removed from the garden before death. Preferably deterring them from your plants altogether.

I'm working on a project that involves comparing garden bugs to Disney and Pixar movies. If a garden bug had a protagonist role in a Disney or Pixar movie, it is a good bug. If a garden bug had an antagonist role in a Disney or Pixar movie, it is a bad bug.
It involves flash cards with the real bug on one side, and the D/P connection on the other.
