LA Woman

So this little lady is an LA Woman fron DNA genetics (Attitude freebie) I'm sure some of you have grown. She's starting her 6th week of her 12/12 cycle and not looking to big so far. Everything I've read says that she packs on alot of weight at the end of flowering. I'm feeding her big bloom and tiger bloom. Got her in ocean forrest. Growing with 2 400w equivelent and a 350w equivelent cfls. Does this little lady really have a growth spurt at the end?:-?

not sure how much more she will pack on with only cfls. how often do you water her, looks droopy.

She gets water about every other day, just fed and watered yesterday. The droopy may be because I had to hide her from the in laws when they came to visit and my first choice of hiding spot wasn't tall enough and she got smooshed down a bit

Just a one time thing, in laws just visited don't live with me. Back to the lighting, I don't understand how 16,600 lumens and 1150w, even though that's just equevilant wattage, is not enough lighting in a 6 square foot grow space. That's like having 2 suns worth of light. My other plants have grown nice and fat under the same lighting conditions

The first thing is that isn't a lot of Lumens. Actually Lumens aren't nearly as important as spectrum and PAR but to your point on lumens, 16,600 lumens isn't that much. Now you may say that I am only doing a 6 sq ft canopy.. When I grew in a 8 square foot tent, I used 2 600watt HPS bulbs to flower. look how tall your plant is. Now take the lumens you are talking about, run it through the inverse square law and see what you are getting a foot down, and then 2 feet down.. Virtually nothing.. You aren't getting anywhere near 2 suns worth of light..

I have a light hanging over, in the middle, and under her. Every square inch of her is saturated with lights. Pretty sure that the lights I bought produce the number of lumens that's stated on the box. So... I mean we could argue lights till the cows come home. I'm wondering if with the right nute regiment, does this lady really pack on weight at the end
