You kinda butchered the first post, and didn't leave a picture. So its basically impossible to help or leave advise. Soundslike your light is just too big. Get a few 23-42 watters instead. Put some up top and some on the sides.

If you don't have $11 to get 105watts of smaller cfls to replace your big one maybe you should put your grow op on hold for a few man lol be patient, you'll be happier in the end. I know how it feels to just start out, you already got your eye on the prize thinking about that finished product.

Lsting isn't meant to grow a plant sideways. It would literally be less than $30 to get everything you need. Buy it and tell your wife it was more left over shit lol. That or move out of the rubbermaid

not to come off as an asshole, but is English not your first language? im finding it very difficult to read your posts... anyway, that setup sounds better, although you will need more light for flowering. Also, from personal experiences i would stay away from autos.

it was just a very very small and weak plant. just really not even worth wasting your time on something like that, in my opinion. it was Fast Buds by Sweet Seeds.

i had it on 18/6 light schedule and it started flowering in less than 4 weeks, it was like 6" tall with only two colas. why waste three months for a half ounce? id rather spend five months and get 2-3oz
