Only advice I can give you @ this moment is, increase your lighting.

u should have aleast 100w per plant.... if ur only growing 1 plant in flowering make sure for have 150watts per plant or more.

going to be following your journal... specially that W.W. you got there...

the plastic that you are using as a pot won't cut it bro. Try to get something that the light can't penetrate because it WILL harm the roots of your plants. Add CFL's as needed, keep an eye on the node space. Good luck!

I thought it was 75 per plant but im sure more wont hurt anything. I wanna try to buy some t5's with more wattage

Thanks for the input man! The white widow is really poping up slow but im patient i cant wait to see her grow to make some big buds!, I was hoping on using the bags as a better way to transplant but i think in the end it may just be easyer to use a median.

If you are growing autos, from what I've read and heard from auto growers on here, start them in the pot that they will stay in for the entire grow.
If you want to use bags, you could always look into actual grow bags, or felt pots.
Hope the grow goes well.
Cheers

Jswett, check out my grow, I have 3 plants with one of them being a dinafem White widow feminized. I am currently 3 weeks into flowering and the white widow is my favorite. I topped and LST'd her and she is a bush now with about 6 main tops and 3 or 4 smaller tops. I'll be following your grow to see your WW! https://www.rollitup.org/cfl-fluorescent-lighting/713446-first-indoor-grow-closet-cfl.html
