Okay so right now I'm still in the veg. Stage and I've been running 5 26watt CFLs daylight ... But. I'm about to start flowering how many of those bulbs should I change to soft white CFLs. I'm not sure if I should go 50/50 or what any advise will be much appreciated... this is a stealth cab so I'm trying to keep it simple thank you

Get them bulbs CLOSER!
Turn so the side is facing your plant, and keep the bulbs within a couple inches.
CFL light is ineffective beyond a few inches.
Keep a couple of your 5000k or 6500k bulbs and add some 2700k and surround the plant with light.
As many as you can fit will benefit you in the end.
I'm vegging with over 200w I think.April20lightsaftermoreLST_zpsa5c26b92.jpg

Is 13/11 good and that's 13 hr lights off 11 hrs lights on?
I've tried 13/11, and didn't see any noticeable difference, even tried 11/13 with a plant, and couldn't tell if it sped anything up or reduced final yield like some say it will, so I would just stick to 12/12 if it was me.

That was all from one plant, and after you flip, it could take anywhere from 2 weeks if the plant is mature, or longer if it is still young.

Ok they are still young. so I will jus let them do their thing. Since they are flowering should I begin to feed. I have tiger bloom

If you just flipped to flower, I would suggest keeping with your veg nutes for another couple weeks, or until you see the stretch slow down.
