You feed once a week, thats not enough for a plant in flower!
Whats you NPKvery low i bet, so she will want more! how often is she drinking too?
Thoese 7wCFL will do nothing except get in the way,complete waste of time IMO. Like the other said, get the hps from screwfix direct, 25 quid. Thats the only way to get a decent bit of bud.
I doubt she will yield anything worth writing home about unless you improve certain things; light , nutes ect. I think someone's winding you up about a couple of oz's
Also, FYI, purple stems are not usually good, it's a nute diff most of the time.
Peace
Feeding Once a Week at the Mo and Watering Once a Week To She Aint Drinking That Much, should i up it to 2 Feeds a Week Then?! Feeding Cavemans Bat Guano High in NPK and Natural Goodies, Also John Innes Bone Meal Along with a Spray of John Innes Epsom Salts Now and Again, Means My NPK Is Fine!! Dont Say CFL's are Rubbish Coz They Aint, They Grow Magnificant Bud Time After Time, Just as Good as any MH or HPS Grow!! This Plant Was Virtually Dead Before i Got it Under Theese CFL's, and jus look at Her Now!? Speaks for itself... CFL's Hav Never Let Me Down!! There alot Cheaper to Run, Dont Get as Hot, And So You Can Put Them Closer to The Plant Without Burning it!! also As They Run Quite Cool You Dont Attract Heat Seaking Attention From POLICE!! Especially good if Your in London Like me Where the POLICE Are HOT on DRUGS!! But Thanks for your Views M8!! Feedback is Appriciated Guys Cheers!!

Drinking once a week, is she in a big pot?
Cfl's are ok, i have used them more than you have ok! But not 7w ones dude, Never are they as good as a HID light, lol joker! you have never use one have you!
What watt are your CFL's? AND, i live in london, fairly central too and i use HID lighting, they dont get any hotter than the inside of a T.V for example. And the POLICE are not hot on growers here, be truthfull.
You dont need to tell me about CFL's , i probally know more than you about them, ok.
How many lumens you got?
And, TBH, your plant isn't all that, infact it's shabby, thats why i was telling you to upgrade a few thing.

for flowering you want an NPK of something like 6-50-30!!!!!!!!!!! from what i can see your bat shit is 8-1-?
Do you know what npk is? and what is your?
What your using is not a fert, you mix it into the soil

Did you know that you CANNOT add up lumens?

Hy.
you can add regular ash from burned woods, and add a good handful on top of the soil, and then water it down...Very good potassium source..and those purple stems can also be form the lower temperatures at night, maybe its too low, you have to know..
good luck with those nugs dude..

I Havn't got a temp gauge yet, but i know that its cold here in England at night now dropping from anything from 9-2c at night time, the room itself is my bedroom it doesnt get much heat as im never in it so the room stays cool most of the time! it may be a reason! cheers fella!

And if its really low, like always at night 5-10c, then the night time growing would be just a lil stunned, not growing so fast and nice as it would do when the temps at night would be 15-18C steady...When lights are on, the a temps rise is totally normal...a dif between night and day is important...If ya can, add a heater and a fan blowing on to it, straight to the plant(not too high of course)...I would see the difference if you do these simple things...

Sounds good m8! i will look into it.. iv seen this MH Light from Screwfix only £20 wonder if it would be good? and if i could get a hood and fitment for it ect?And if its really low, like always at night 5-10c, then the night time growing would be just a lil stunned, not growing so fast and nice as it would do when the temps at night would be 15-18C steady...When lights are on, the a temps rise is totally normal...a dif between night and day is important...If ya can, add a heater and a fan blowing on to it, straight to the plant(not too high of course)...I would see the difference if you do these simple things...

However, you would need to buy a ballast for that (ignitor)...here's a link just to give you ideas.

I would say go and buy a couple extra cfls', unless you want to get involved in buying a ballast. Since you are in flowering then I would suggest buying an hps like nitrious oxide said in his previous post (but only if you are going to continue growing after this) otherwise, boost it up with more cfl's - cheap and easy I suppose (although I don't use them for flowering, I use hps)
Few up above. Happy growing

Are They any Good? anyone have any better Newts they want to share with me? Help Greatly appriciated as im new on Newts and Fertz apart from wat iv been using!! Cheers Time to roll my bedtime doob

I use Canna Rhizotonic (for the first 2 weeks from seed for root growth) it has a low npk ration (0.6-0.2-0.6), I use BioNova for growth (and continue to use through flowering) and they also do a pk 13+14 which I use (these are great for flower and I would recommend to get them now for your current grow.) Not sure about the other canna products though.

Well iv gone and Ordered some Nutes and such, i got Canna Zym and Canna Rhizotonic wich i will apply first with 1 watering to prepare the plant ect ready for the Nutes, and hopefully kill the infestation of theese maggot type creatures in the soil, they are clear very small maggot like, there was a lot of Fruit Flys in there i mean about 30 when i started with the CFL's i jus wonder if they laid eggs in the soil!! but the plant seems unharmed for now but i'll be keeping a close eye and should be ok once i recieve this new stuff! will it be ok to mix Zym + Rhizotonic together or will they react one another? im also thinking about flushing the plant quite well with Ph'd water, as she hasn't had 1 since her birth over 6 months ago! i think it would help straighten her out ready for the treatment and nutes?! if that goes well then the 2nd watering i will add BioBizz Bloom + Canna PK 13/14 at small strength to start with and see how she does then start upping the levels, i hope this all works out!! i should have all the liquids by Tuesday next week and can start then, any help on the creatures in the soil and weather a Flush would help clear them or comments on the choice of stuff iv picked to use is appriciated as allways!!
