those CFL bulbs suck.. i hate to say it but every one that i know that uses them always has problems with them falling and stupid stuff happening... i would invest a little money into the lights becouse in the long run its going to pay off and ur eye balls will fall out you will be so stoned !!!!!!

wel....for sure you're going to need more cfls for that setup..especially if you plan on keeping all those plants healthy. those look like 2700K cfls to me judging by the color..those arent good for veg, you need the bright white cfls, 6500k's for veg for root growth. i had 4 42w cfls on top of 4 plants and only 3 really pulled through..2 were males, so now i have 1 under 6 42watts

more lights there better, and reflection does help so try and get some stuff around the lights.. possibly even try to attach the fluorescent light to the cieling and hang it on top of all of them evenly.

get them all as close as you can too man, those lights barely get warm, you can put them within an inch from the tops.

good luck

you can make a nice f'n plant with cfls

changed my setup, got all the walls coverd with pandafoil stuff from a growshop now, gonna post pics tomorrow when their 3 weeks old.

yeah i'm definitly getting more CFLs, and your right their CFLs for flowering, got 1 more today, and i'm probaby gonna start flowering at week 4 or 5 wich is in 1-2 week, so i got another 2700k. is it really such a big diffrence for vegging? they seem to be doing fine with these.

oh btw... you got skillz for telling its 2700k from just the pic :D

lol

theres a big diff in looks

also...just so you know i used 2700k's for veg. Its my first grow and i thought 6500ks were for flowering and 2700 for veg

so i vegged with a bunch of 2700's and when i was turning to flower i found out that 2700k's are the best for flower

so really i dont think it really really matters if you use 2700k's for the whole thing..maybe it makes a difference, but it will still grow fine

theyre on saturday its 3 weeks since i changed to 12/12, and 2 weeks since they showed sex.

2 were male, killed one and put one outside, that should be dead by now to since its freezing and snowing here. 2 plants left, 1 i topped but nothing grew -.-. big mama is getting way to big :dunce:

their in new pots with new Plagron soil bat mix, has bat guano and worm castings in it and has the perfect n-p-k for flowering.

they have a 200 watt envirolight above them and 3 23watt cfls as side lighting

I have a fan blowing on them, but the stem still seems thin and streched, the nodes are like 5-10 cm apart is that much?

budsites are popping up every where.:weed:







if you people show intrest ill post more pics :D
