Any preflowers yet? Listen to the plant, friend. It will tell you when its ready. CFL or HPS?

If you have preflowers, flip the switch. If not, you should have soon even with Fluros.

Yeah, but how will I make out yeild wise. Don't wanna end up wastin all dis time just to get a little bit, although I do plan on taking clones before I flower her

Unless you plan on changing to HPS you are not going to get much from fluros anyway. Fluros only penetrate a few inches at most so a bigger plant will do you no good.

You have a good point, guess I never thought about it that way. I do plan on moving up to an HPS but not untill after I move outta where I am, which could be anywhere from 2-6 weeks. So I will just bud her and see how she turns out, plan on gettin a couple clones for when I move up to the HPS I hate growin from seed.

Youre gonna get some bangin ass weed with that light. MUCH better than flouros!

Use the flouro's for vegging, the HPS to flower. Since youre not using an HPS, the longer you veg, the more you'll yeild. Your plant is a respectable size... it could be flowered now and still yeild a decent amount. Its up to you really. Keep in mind it will double in size when you flower, so if you have height restrictions, thats something to think about.

When I get The new lights I am gonna put the MH in for a couple weeks then switch to the HPS, I have the flouros on 24/7 now. The are the plant & Aquarium bulbs just put em in the other day and already seem to be makin a diff

Went and bought a thermometer today, room temp is about 76 soil is 71. Humidity is just above 30% is this too low?

30 is a little low for veg. It will slow growth slightly but if you keep it watered it will be fine. Low humidity is good in flower so you don't get mold.

Yeah they are on the way!!!! As for the tin foil, I put it in there for both reasons to reflect the light and make it a bit warmer in there. My new room is goin to have mylar on da walls and floor. Also I am sure the humidity will go up a bit after I move things since I will be growin in a basement, I think it will be a bit high down there tho. Another thing I am wondering, what kind of light cycle should I put these babys under once I get my HID's and attract the least amount of attentioin from the electric company? Haven't been worried about it here caus I am in an apt and it is all included in my rent and really no way to track with 4 other tenats, but wont have that luxiery next month as I will be in a house
