1) I grow her at my balcony then received insufficient light for 40 days from seed then after finish building cabinet box then move to below grow box till now.
2) My soil not that clean have kind of white insect very very tiny in soil.
3) random used fert by mix bat guano and worm casting
4) as you can see from my picture CFL blub too close then it burn lil girl (i think but no option now)

Can some one help me? give me any suggestion would be appreciated. this is my grow cabinet due to lack of space so this is my best try now...but...I try to learning about LED setting and will change asap.27Sep'11.JPG27Sep'11 (20).JPG27Sep'11 (10).JPG

K well just keep up growing like that and youll get lots of seeds. If anyone can tell if thats a herm already then they can see into the future. If you grown that plant for 40+ days, it might be stunted. You should do a little more research.

hey bro clean youre soil up , buy sothing or make some spray for the bugs , amend youre soil with some better top soil ,add a some garden lime , the guano will burn those younglings look at mine i burnt them a little with guano ,,,,chexck it out my cfl babbies are 3 weeks 24 hr light ,,look how bushy in 3 weeks from a 3 leave clone ,,,give em a little empsaon salt in the soil too, no guano till flowering,,,, i flower mine outside and i light train them check out the one thats tied down that is light stress training ,,not turning the lights out ,,,, keep at it use daylight cfls and florecent under cabinet lights in that cabinet you built with 24 hr light for vegging ,,,,look at the results ,,,,, i am hALFWAY THROUGH HARVEST 4 OZ SO FAR 2 PLANT HARVEST TONIGHT AND 6 YOUNGSTERS TO BLOOM IN THE GREEN HOUSE THROUGH WINTER OUTSIDE ,,I USE THE SUN ALL YEAR ,WITH MY VEG ROOM ,, P1010017.jpgP1010002.jpgP1010007.jpgP1010005.jpgP1010001.jpgP1010006.jpg

am i right in thinking that you WANT her to HERMIE.?? i wouldnt but each to there own m8,,, you do know that your beans will or could have a high hermie rate if you use her to pollenate herself... if she is already 40+ days old from seed then i think its defo stunted , she should be alot bigger by now... your cfl's cant possibly be burning her at that height either and if i were you id move them alot closer to her..

just my 2 cents worth...

Autos like a lot of light if you're going for maximum yield. If they don't get what they want in terms of lighting in the first 3 weeks the end result won't be what you're going after.

If you place a layer of perlite on top of the soil it will help solve the bug issue. Bugs germ in the soil then when they attempt to crawl out of the soil they get cut to bits by the perlite.

If you're considering leds and autos check my perpetual journal in my sig. Got a tad over 5 oz off four fem auto plants in 65 days spout to harvest led only.

oh and as for going dwn the LED route , i wudnt either... dnt waste your money on LED there not as good as hps or hallide lamps... fair enuf they keep heat dwn and possibly cost too but the final yield will heavilly be reduced...

not necessarily true man. Some leds are crap some are not. check the pics, 5.2 oz in 65 days. Same average yield I was pulling with my old hps set up.
 
he/she is definitly stunted if thats at 40 days. keep it up and try again with your seeds and the next go around id use clean soil and more light. leds arent worth the money the same results can be achieved with much cheaper lights.

along with other factors final yield is strain dependant... 4 auto plants under led's giving a final yield of just over 5.2oz is ok i guess ,, thats roughly 40odd grams each plant (dry)... as we all know auto's produce less than normal 8-10wk plants.. im pulling 3-4oz dry weight from 1 plant under hps... we all have our own opinions on led's , sum better than others but i would strongly advise to learn with what you got instead of going to the extra cost of buying led's and still getting it wrong....

sure if you're new to this don't go out and blow a g note on leds, that's not smart. I just get upset when people who haven't used reputable brands like to hate on them without first hand experience. They made sense for me given my heat issues in the dirty south, especially during the summer months.

Damn you guys so nice. I didnt expect quick replied like this before.
About hermie i also heard that it possibly give me hermie seeds but some fact also said that seeds from shemale plant will be feminized, so, i wanna do some experiment ;D and i will update the result again once i finish this experiment.

Next time i might change to grow via coco mixed with perlite and some worm casting. Sound ok?

About LED that true i should not spend more cash right now since i just bought these CFL and other stuff. Anyway, i will wait until my growing skill is better then will try LED One reason i do want to try LED is about heat issue as well as tight space in this cabinet. I live in South East Asia where we have only 2 week of winter, 6 month of freakin hot summer and 6 month of damn raining.

Btw, thanks y'all !!!

I would stay away from using hermi anything to produce seeds, kind of a crap shoot there buddy. If you want to make an led transition totally painless just get a good harvest sell some and re-invest the proceeds into your grow. Just make sure you research the hell out of the company you're considering. The soil you mentioned sounds legit, I personally use Fox Farms Ocean Forest which as worked well for me.
