I'm new to differential equations and I can't get the correct thinking. I successfully solved $y' = 2 \sqrt{y}$ as $x^2$ which wasn't that hard but I'm stuck at a more general form $y' = a \sqrt{y}$. The solution can't be that hard but I cannot find it.

0Please note that for $y'=2\sqrt{y}$ the general solution is $(x+C)^2$. – 2011-06-29

0@user6312: I know that but for the moment just a special solution will suffice. When I have the solution itself it's easier to find the general one. However I suck at finding a special solution. – 2011-06-29
