How's It Going?

I wanted to show the babes and hope to get some opinions/advice!

They are almoust 8 weeks old, and have been under 12/12 cycle for 2 weeks. They are starting to show the first signs of bud. As u can see they are under CFL's and have proper ventilation. They seem to be very bushy, maybe a little too much....hope it wont take away the light from the buds. Some internal leaves are kinda deformed, I think because they are trying to make their way out.

I would appreciate any opinions on how they seem to be doing and on any advice on how I can get a nice yield! They are the only 2 females out of a 7 plant start so I was pretty pissed and would like to get as much yield as possible from these 2!

Thanks!!

Since I've been flowering I've been using 6 Sopht white 42W (2700 lumens) and a cuple Day light 26W(1600 lumens) just to keep the spectrup complete! The daylights are at the bottom to induce lower growth.

Any suggestions for my babes?

Ahh yes another CFL grower. You have an excellent little setup there my friend. I as well love using CFLs. Hey, the bushier the better! As long as you have lights on the top, middle, and bottom with reflective material you should be good. You are doing an excellent job. Whatever you are doing, stick with it. The plants look amazing! Good luck with flowering. It's gonna be a long 6 more weeks!!

Thanx Pauliojr, appreciate it! Yes I like CFL's too...I find them easy and they have given good results soo far. And u can stick them anywere u want.
I'm gonna have only 4 or 5 more weeks to complete flowering because i'm leaving the 15 of may and need to dry for about a week. But I still hope It will work out ok. Do you think I should cut some fan leaves for more light on the buds or just let them go like this?

Anytime man. I do not like the idea of trimming fan leaves. I know there is a huge debate on it, but the fan leaves collect a lot of the light meaning more energy for your plant!! The more light the plants get, the harder they will work for you. Keep us updated!!

O and thank you LANDO!! Haha, I do my best. I just hope everyone here would give the same words of encouragement to me. As I am sure they would!!
