Looking good. But if I were you I would repot your baby in a 1 or 2 gallon pot. that clear bottle isn't to good if your roots get light they will turn green and you will get issues. Just repot and your all good!

40 watts, i couldnt find 42 watts but 2 watts dont matter but those are the best cfl on the market if you only happen to have $10.

looking good man, do your baby a favor and transplant her into a 4 gallon container.....also get some more cfls....wallmart sells 65 watters which are equivilant to 200 incandescent watts for 19 bucks a peice ....pick up a few of those.......good luck.....

simple solution man, 7 doallrs a peice for those clamp shop lights at wal mart....what i did was i had a floro above my ladies and i just took apart the shop light reflector and used the sockets. I let the sockets hang down over the floro....I used duct tape to position them....go and check out my grow pics and that will give you a better idea....if you cant find my grow...let me know and Ill post a link, I would now but the wife needs the computer.....

btw....dont mind the plant....I had her all fudged up...lol....but I straightened her out and pulled almost 2 oz.s off of her....
