Looks like u definitely know HOW TO GROW w/ cfl's .. Try cutting back those long stalks to force the lower stalks to "fill up " check Uncle ben's thread to get 2 or 4 main Kola's

looks like a lot o' people do really well with cfl's ..

I'd look for another problem .. CO2 ? Over/underfertilizing ? ...Indoors you are trying to duplicate natural sun moisture and soil .... good luck .. read and read and READ !! on this site .. sort thru the BS and experiment ..as Uncle Ben says !!

thanks for the compliment and advice mate, only thing i would add with that is that sometimes people need to learn from thier mistakes with growing, its very well reading up tons of info, and on your first grow you get it spot on. but sometimes you need first hand experiance of difficulties that you over come in order to fully understand the plants qualities, thats my view any way, but yeh your quite right. thanks, +rep

IMO man, learning from your mistakes is the only tangeable way to learn how to grow. I mean, theres people out there that are blessed enough to turn everything they touch into a masterpiece plant, but for the majority, not every plant is going to be that chonger fuckin diggity dank superstar in your garden. Ive made so many mistakes in so few grows its rediculous. But ive always recovered from my mistakes, and turned my shit around, into some amazing looking and smoking bud. Ive read dozens of books on growing pot, along with other plants, but nothing compares to the shit ive learned from being in the field. :D

if they want to eradicate cash croppers they should force them to grow the one phenotype of ice you have.

2.5 oz dried off of just one out of four alaskan plants i had grown . 2.5 oz. dried was the average out of four .....grew em DWC set-up under 400 watt HPS. was the fucking beast man. really potent smoke. i kept only the short fat phenos and ditched the more sativa looking females. . they grew maybe 2.5-3 feet tall and bushed out like a christmas tree after foliar spraying them every so often. no hermies, no troubles and they took heavy ass nutes, upwards of 1.8-1.9 ec in flowering period. BUT DO FLUSH EVERY SO OFTEN > drank like a camel in the desert so keep checking your tanks regularly to fill them up and maintain a good PH level.

VERY, VERY, strong haze smell after i dried the nugs. i mean like a HOLY SHIT haze smell . it seeped out of the baggies no matter how good ya sealed em up. didnt smell too bad while i was growing them and i must insist that you cure the nugs in mason jars for awhile. you'll be thanking me.
serious bag appeall , crystals everywhere and i swear they stick to your fingers like boogers.

in my opinion. alaskans are the beast. and IF YOURE GONA USE cfls FOR VEG, THATS FINE. i used CFLS to veg these girls but switch over to HPS for flowering. it's like a one two knock-out combination bro.

Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze is a huge yielder. First time with GH gear and SLH is almost 7 weeks flowering and buds are already huge and it looks like it will yield at least 5 ounces per plant with the plant being about 6 foot tall. Hawaiin Snow is also looking like a winner but there is much more space between the buds and it stretches quite a bit but also looks to be a great yielder. Lemon Haze has very little space between buds and they are very compact. Don't have any experience with Alaskan Ice so can't comment there.

lol I hate to ream on ya.. but when you're growing a strain like Alaskan Ice {White Widow x Haze} you need some more sufficient lighting bro.

step up to some good lighting. quit being cheap.! 400 watt hps at the least! 600 , even better!

re-try the alaskan ice strain and post some results of using it with HPS . before and after. that will help everyones constant battle between cfl and HId lighting on here.

proof is in the pudding.
