IMO switch to 3000k bulbs or lower for flowering. Perhaps add a couple more bulbs. Just IMO. Here's mine 2-3 weeks into flowering on 3000k T-5 lights...Royal Flush

hey guys here's an update !!
DAY 34 of Flowering.. I've used grow big 6-4-4 for more nitro, and following week used a mix of Tigerbloom 2-8-4 and pure blend pro by Botanicare 1-5-4, mostly tigerbloom and for the rest of her cycle i will use just TIgerbloom..
I also added 2 23W CFL's @ 2700K
Total Lighting: 2 23 W CFL's @ 5000K and 2 23W CFL's @ 2700K
What do you guys think so far?

On that last pic it looks like ( imight be wrong :P ) theres alot of space between ur bulbs and the girls.Try and put ur hand under the bulbs to feel how much heat they generate(point is that if it hurts ur hand, it hurts ur girls), and day by day move the bulbs closer. Ur buds look a bit skinny, and the plant has been stretching cus either the light source was too far away, or probarly not strong enough.

Besides that they have a nice color, looks really healthy :)

Goodluck with ur meds.

hey guys, this is my first grow and this baby is about 19 days into flowering! She is under only 2 23W CFL bulbs @5000K.

What do you guys think? Also, I do not have any idea what strain this is, any ideas of when il have a better chance identifying the strain?
any grow that finishes with buds is a good one & they are right invest in to more lightWhen you can

Doing a fine job there. NOW is the perfect time to switch to more of a red spectrum! You can buy some inexpensive daylight CFLs, or CREE LED bulbs from HD for the same wattage. They also have a broad spectrum.

I have more 2700k bulbs! i bought a six pack.. should i switch out the two 5000K bulbs?
Most people like going for a mixed spectrum in flowering,if it were me I would get some more sockets and add the bulbs you've just bought instead of just switching them out.you can get clamp reflectors at wally world for like $7-$10.I'm a new to this too but the more light you feel comfortable adding the better :) just my 2 cents though

well i had the reflectors but i had to take them off because they wouldnt fit when i had a socket splitter in.. so i have 4 lights.. all four are 23W cfl's @2700k.

Yes I seen that you had the clamp reflectors after I posted,just get a few more splitters.get up to 8 bulbs.your 6 23w 2700k and the two 5000k.your girl is looking good and healthy too man :)

It was just a suggestion though,do whatever you feel most comfortable doing.especially If heat or stealth is an issue
