well it looks healthy but its growing slow. maybe its time to add a real light.
i got a couple 4 footers in hydro that are less than two months.
but theyve been flowering for 2 weeks so the shot up.

add a few more cfls and are u using any nutrients?

looks pretty fugin rad for what your set up is... if i where you i would get a light timer and just go with 18/6 (unless temp. controll is an issue) and try and go with a
light proof container if the roots come in contact with light they die.


but the force is with you

"if the roots come in contact with light they die." ...not all the roots just the tips that are at the edges. and how is that mirror working it must throw back almost all that light huh?

since you only have 2 plants try to incorperate some sunshine into the mix. whether its through a window or on a porch in your back yard ( warm days). if you have big windows facing the right direction and everything the sun can hit the same spot for a couple hours and then just move them again. and if theres no sunlight leave them in the little gro room.

use caution putting them outside in direct sunlight. this can be too intense for a plant grown under cfls. if you really want to start doing that work it gradually into the sun. there are probly some good sources about that on here

and this all depends on how open you can be about your plants

how far from the tops are the lights? I wouldnt go under 200w a plant, otherwise your yeild is gonna make you very sad.

1inch or so, what yeild would you predict from this?? i put those plants into 12/12 a couple of says ago nearly stariaght after i took fotos
2X25w(4000k) 2X28W(3000k)
yeild prediction?

unless you get more lights like 85w cfl or 150 hps is worth it!
i highly doubht ill be getting any more lights
its my first grow so im keeping it basic as to not fuck it up, also keeping it natural, no lst topping or fim etc

tbh 10 grams a plant would be an aight outcome for me, what would that be dried?

anyone else got any predictions on yeild?

You're barely going to have enough for yourself if you want to continue as you have. You NEED more lights in there if you want better and more buds.

I find great deals on packs of higher wattage CFL's online all the time, I recommend getting something like that because you can use the ones you want and then have extra for when one burns out/breaks

I dont think its worth the risk of what would happen if you got caught to continue playing, you should get serious man, how can you not want to constantly improve your setup? lol, after my first grow thats how i felt. you could do so much better my friend........
