Good luck and keep it up. When do you plan on flowering?I just took these pics. And I need to transplant them asap and im working on that. Having my car fixed so I can get 2 more buckets and 4 more bags of soil..
This will be an experimental grow. I will also be trying to do a stealth grow using rubber maids. one veg .. one flower and 1 clone. asumming that 1 rubber maid for each should possibly work possibly 2 for the flowering depending on how big they get for a SoG stealth using only cfl's.. And I am already planing that out little by little so I can do it cheaply. As well as posting plants on how I plan to do it.

Your last pics look pretty good. Keep up the good work and the journal. I'm doing a closet, cfl grow too and every journal helps, thanks.
Question.. My plant is about 5 inches tall. it looks like (hard to see the nodes are REALLY tight together) that there are 7 nodes about including new ones growing as we speak at the top. Tomorrow will be wk 3 of veg.. how much longer should I wait before going to 12/12? Will be posting pics when my laptop reboots after cracking this freakin WEP key so I can get back online... lol
sorry: my desktop has no way to read memory cards for cameras yet

I'm close to you, week 4 for me, and my nodes are very tightly spaced. My advice is wait for another 3 weeks, and in the meantime take a few clones and flower them to see the sex of your plant, and possibly to increase your overall yield by a lot.
well for cloning and sexing .. i have no seperate room (yet) will be building one soon.. to flower under just for that.. uhm.. as for the waiting 3 weeks.. is this for a full size grow or more of a SoG grow? because i know you should wait untill about 10 inches but looking at other people.. there 5 inches makes my plant look like 50 inches tall.. 
if you compare the nod spacing to mine and if mine were spaced out that much with how many nodes i have.. xD

This first grow is a trial grow.. after this grow i wil lnot be using my closet like it is and ill be using rubber maids.. (easier to section off for SoG growing).. as for good results.. is flowering at 8-10 acceptable? this grow has tought me alot about plants that i did not know and it looks like i may be getting the hang of it.

In my first grow I flowered my plants at 7 inches and they didnt even get to be a foot tall when finished. I only had two plants an havested 13 grams from them in total.
In my current grow I am still vegging my plant and they are showing preflowers So far I only have 2 confirmed females and One more I think will be female. I will be vegging them till at least 14 inches this time. I was only using flouresents last time 6 3 foot High output T5 linear tubes. In my current gorw I am using those t5's plus a 150 watt hps.
That is my experience and I lerned alot from it, Hope iut helps man. Happy gowing
p.s get those boy outta there. lets hope they didnt pollinate to heavy. and if so then you will lots of seed for next time but the bud will be kinda bunk
