Looking good so far. Shove as many CFLs in there as you can afford as long as you keep the temperatures under control.

Happy Growing and Good Luck!

Yeah I would definitely consider adding a few cfls...maybe get rid of the 15w and go with 2 26's instead? I have 2 of those 42w bulbs...which throw alotta light...and then 4 26w bulbs, in my veg cab. I have 5 plants, on their 5th week of veg, in there....seems to be doing a stellar job! Check out this light fixture that my bro and I made! We used an extra stove pipe and an old lamp. I've been using it for a year and a half now...I have even flowered with it!

i was thinking on getting more lights but i need those Y extensions tho cuz i only have 3 lamps lol can u get those any hardware store ? and for the sprouting time on each was about a day and a half after germination they were out of the soil both plants in the pic are different unknown kinds got one seed off one buddy and the other off a different buddy the one on the left finally started showing signs of female this weekend that just past , my big one tho showed sex before even flowering well to what im thinking is females the white hairs / pistils mean female right i havnt had any problems with my temp except for once and thats cause my sister never turned on the fan when lights turned on for about an hour and idk if this is good but i started only doing lst method about a week before i started flowering , and question i heard if u end up with a hermie and decide to keep it and the male pollen gets out onto the female it gives 100% female seeds is that true cuz if i end up with one i wouldnt mind getting female seeds and start all over again but yes thanks alot guys for the comments certenly when im a newbie to this dint think i was doing that good i was expecting comments like too small or sum shit thx guys made my day ill post more weekly cuz im only around the girls on weekends
