Just to update folks, all is well with my 1 lady. Shes got alot of new bud growth, and im still working with the 2 cfls and aero hood. i ((Need)) to get more lights im just praying that i dont have a shit yeild because of my lack of lighting.. Budget is tight atm tho so making due with what i have :)

I ended up bending the plant, and letting one side of the suspended ag hood hang lower than the other to spread the light pretty evenly among 3/4ths of the plant. and i have the other 2 soft white cfls blasted on the slower bud growing sites.

Posting pics up tommorow, feed backs greatly appreciated
(Anyone know a good reliable source for some discount lights? also im interested in investing in some HPS lights but how does that fare with the electric bill?)

well i kno the 250 watt one are not too bad on the bill, CFL's are the cheapest, its like 4 bucc's for each bulb, or that is what i paid, they seem to be likin the 100 watt cfl's, good lucc, will be posted for su pics 8)

nop. look at the guy's plant pics. even with couple more lights with the aerogarden, the plant stretched a lot.
but if u want a lanky stretchy plant go ahead try it.

LOL man, my girl is tall and lanky because i didnt top her , not because of the lights :) the next grow is going to be a mega bush. im going to top the shit out of it early on.

i have 2 CFLs put them right above the plant, plus aerogarden lights just above the additional CFL, growing like mad, staying low and bushy, i personally dont need anymore than 3 extra CFLs, its goin crazy

just put it into flowering after 5 weeks, its gonna be awesome, once the stem thickens and the leaves get big... theres no failing, you can do it with 3 CFLs if u do keep them really close to the plant, i left it for 3 days as i went away, came back and they still didnt reach the light and they grew at least 5 times the size, dont need to overdo it and as i am short on cash 3 CFLs for 1 plant is fine, just make sure its a fem :)

really, i thought mine were short and bushy at one point.. but then they exploded and grew real tall.. i was real worried before about the lights burning my plants, do you guys have that issue too?

Nae mine are starting to grow out more that grow up, i got some tight node spacing, it was probably the strain, most of mine are indicas so being short is in there genetics
