I grew 12 plants with 1 150 watt red cfl,2 100 watt blues,and 1 regular white cfl, in clear cups with half peat moss and half miracle grow slow relaese(ran out of reg soil) . I did however use a organic fish emulsion fertilizer(which u can find @ walmart n local stores)and those basterds looked like little cabbages, dense thick green foliage, so ur doin pretty good

Wut up Clowdy, nah I have not only because I just transplanted them into some Fox Farm soil. I need to wait at least 2 weeks before there feeding, because the soil is high in organic nutes. The plants have been in the new soil now for 5 days, and I will feed them in about another week. I am using peters 10-50-17. Everyone always talks shit about my nutes, but this is my grow and I will feed them what I want. If they get burned then fuck it, but I will keep posting pics through out my whole grow until I cure bro. So, did you feed yours? If I didn't change the soil I would have started feeding them 2 weeks into the grow starting with 1/4 of a teaspoon, and slowly getting sto 1 full teaspoon. Keep checkin my thread, because I am going to induce flowering this saturday, peace bro.:weed:

I have a question for you penny, why do you have your lights sideway and not pointing straight down on the plant?

To tell you the truth I do not know. I have never used cfls for veg only for seedlings. but do to my current situation I used cfls, but my wife sent my lights last week. I think with the lights sideways and a homemade reflector a setup like this would be fuckin awsome for veg. I do not know much about a total grow with cfls. I usually grow with a 400 watt mh/hps sungrow system. I got to admit though the veg cycle is going AAA++++++ great with cfls.

ya thats for way better light use
plus the plant gets alot more lumens and stuff it needs from it
haveing it just the tip on top ur just going to be get that tip worth of eveything and then the plant is going to have to wait for all that stuff to hit off the alls and everywhere before the plant gets it and by then it will lose some of that stuff it likes but by having it sidesways its geting the hole side not just a tip and alot if not most is going straight down toward ur plant.not having to wait for anything
