Yeah, I didn't say anything about any probs. because your lucky it's even alive after having a light fall on it. Looking good!

From that last picture it looks like you're using CFLs... get 'em closer!

Looking good though

yea if he wants to fry them..his leaves edges are curling because of heat stress.. they look good but you need some more air blowing in there.your ideal temp should be 75-78f with lights on and 63-68f with them off.keep up the good work.

Your plant is looking pretty good, I would probably flower it soon so it doesn't get too tall, plants can double in size from start to finish of flower.

here we are again 2 days later...doin really well, thinkin about switchin to 18/6 iinstead of full 24 in the next 1-2 days to ease the plant into 12/12 soon...here are some pix..

thats true but if there isn't enough nodes then there wont be much bud... I would let it grow a few more nodes then flower and just add some fans and keep your lights about 1-2 inches from the plants so they don't grow up as much and get bushy.

Is 7-10 nodes enough for a yeild of around 2 ounces with a 75 day flower?

im going to flower with cfls probably as well..i have 4x27w warm light..do u think i should just use those four? or us those four and like four of my daylight or like all 8 of my daylight and all four of my warmlight..just a question that someone could maybe answer to help me with a better yield in quality and quantity...

i dnt think your going to get 2oz dry mybe at most a half when dry and thats beening hopeful!

happy growing

Here we are at 5 weeks old exactly...i labeled those wrong back there..the 17th of Dec. was a week, the 31st was 3weeks not 2, and the 6th of Jan. was 4 weeks, and today would be week 5...my badso here we are..still growin strong...so within the next day or two i will convert to 18/6 for about 3 days then hit the switch to 12/12 and flower this baby...i found a store that sells Super Bloom, so ill be heading there very soon..as well as the HD for some 2700k cfls..like 8 more...

sure its possible but all the conditions have to be right.but you would need real light like a hps and mh. cfl's are not powerful enough.

Here we are 2 days later..starting of 18/6

looks good dude. has some good looking stems another node or 2 and you can start flower and get some bomb plants.if you can put like a 150 watt hps under it and you'l get some fat buds.

r u gunna use the cfl's to flower?!?..u can get a 70watt hps at home depot for like 50$..
and still use ur clfs..for 1 plant that would work fine!

that would be the smart thing... CFL"S are good lights but for the price of a good cfl you could get a hps.

ya im plannin on buyin a 150w HPS from home depot tomorrow actually..saturday is when i plan on flowering..i think by saturday night around 7:30pm is when i will do the first 12hr night period...hopefully with four 27w Warm Light CFLs and that 150w hps will be enough to do some good nuggage..yayuh..well here are pix again two days later..im tryin to keep it on a two day basis with my pix to show more progression in the plants...

BTW...I just found me 2 Blueberry Kush seeds..yayuh..i think ima start germ. them in about 2 weeks, so when saturday(if my plant looks on time) i begin flowering, hopefully it will be timed right to start flowering the Blueberry Kush right when im done harvesting this Wizards Breath(Great White x White Widow)..
