Ive been flowering under cfl for about 2 1/2 weeks now. tell me if i need to do anything. ive been tieing the branches down gently with dental floss so i have a nice canopy but the bottom half is slowly filling in cuz i lowers a couple lights.

Tell me what you think20130625_081222.jpg20130625_081217.jpg20130625_081212.jpg20130625_081206.jpg20130625_081201.jpg20130622_191646.jpg20130621_141141.jpg20130621_141134.jpg20130621_141116.jpg20130621_141108.jpg20130621_141101.jpg20130621_141032.jpg20130621_141004.jpg

how much light u have. u should cluster ur bulbs in a gang of 6 using "ys" and suspend over the girls. i use 26w x100 and use six per plant 156w each with a few 40w tubes on the sides. u cant over do it with cfls, my .02

The one pic looks mag deficient. Could just be the lighting/ angle or something, but as i understand it, yellow leaves with green veins means mag. Try adding diluted Epsom salts, see if that helps. I'm still a noob myself, so feel free to look further into that. But as long as you don't go crazy with it, pretty sure it can't hurt?

Also, how many light/watts are you using, I'm on my second grow and I'm trying to get a feel for how few lights I can use while still putting out good bud. Limited space, heat, electric bill, etc.

i see alot of people growing w/ cfls say they been veggin for two weeks and plants be at 12'' or more. mine are 6weeks and 4-6" tall. wtf am i doing wrong? i had the wrong spectrum in the beginning and not as much light as i do now. plus a nitrogen deficiency( in the beginning). think i jus answered my own question. haha
