First grow- PC grow w/ CFL's

It's been about 3 weeks into my PC grow. Both are bagseeds which were planted out in my garden before i got the idea of throwing them into a PC i had sitting in my room for about 5 years.

I'm using 3 26 W 6500k CFL bulbs for my grow. Feedback is appreciated!! The only problem I have run into is i spotted about two spider mites that i killed on the larger plant. Any advice on how to get rid of them?

I will post more pictures of the PC tomorrow, but for now the plants.

Anyone know when I should begin 12/12 or should I have already? Hopefully this grow is successful!

The problem with that is I do have an issue with the size of the PC, it's dimensions are 17 " x 17.5 " x 7 "... I have already began to LST on the larger plant,it's a lot bushier than the other one. The larger plant has plenty of leaves coming out the main stem, and is currently standing about 6" tall

I'm not sure. I'm not looking for a specific amount, just for experience. 1/4 oz would make this grow a success

If you wanna keep those two plants in the pc box you'll definitely need to do some good lst and/or topping. Other option is to keep just the best of the two plants. Switching to 12/12 depends on the way you will do the grow but keep in mind that the plant will keep getting taller for around a month after you switch to 12/12.

There are many pc grows in rollitup you could check out to get some ideas. Also you should probably get some more light, 100w is the minimum I recommend. And 40w or 80w bulbs are better than 20w or 30w bulbs.

Just talking from my own experience with pc grows, good luck ;)
