No nutes yet but im thinking about it with the next watering im gunna give her some food, today i managed to pick up 2 more cfl's for her as well but the only think i couldnt find was a god dam splitter for it so I'll have to live with just 1 extra light in there for now haha 3 different places and they all had the splitter for just a regular bulb.

... Cfl's are the same socket as an Incandescent bulb. They're exactly the same, please don't tell me you thought they were different.

Dude you did excellent and the lady looks lovely. Good job man. Keep it up and hopefully well be lookin at some of those budshots from you 
I already threw up mine but their a few weeks ahead of yours 
Ok man well I just trimmed a bud off tonight and dried it in the oven (hate that makes it taste like shit...) and it turned out getting me and my lady pretty fucked up off just a little and it being this premature and doing this I can't wait to see how mine turns out Good luck on that grow and if you're still thinking about nutes, personally I wouldn't do nutes unless you feel she needs it. A hit and I'm out right? lol

good to hear your lady is producing well bro! I cant wait to start seeing little hairs coming out
I just got a 3rd light in there last night so she'll be happier, also a proper thermometer and humidity checker. I have a 4th bulb but I'm just trying to figure out how to set it up in there lol im running outta space and it took me a good 10 min last night switching all the cords around so that all the lights were going into the timer so they will all turn off rather then 2 turning off and 1 staying on, thats a mistake im glad i didnt make haha

Didn't expect you would add another plug in there for lights, it will be useful when its a bit older to have side lighting. I visualized 3 Y joints so you could have 4 bulbs in the one socket. In like a square/diamond shape. Maybe later if you add even more and can keep the temperature under control.

yea the temp seems to be at the same still even tho i added that 1 extra bulb, im almost thinking that 4 cfl's might be too much for just 1 plant, but im not quite shur about that yet, i mean i have 1 more bulb that can be set up in there just dont know weather i want to or not yet, today tho when i came home from work and checked out my baby, she dont seem to mind that 1 more bulb is in there she's growing faster and pushing newer leafs faster but is there such a thing as too much light for a plant?

When you hit that point you will be bleaching the leaves out. I had quite a few bulbs in my grow area, and they don't seem to mind at all. The more light, the faster it grows, but also, the bigger it gets the more light it will need. So it will be a constant cycle of adding more/stronger lights as it grows. Then when you flower you need to double whatever you've used to veg.

oh man that sounds like a lot of power, I thought I'm sapposed to be using less light in the flowering stage, cuz im supposed to be reducing the light cuz it's "winter" I dunno im pretty shur i need different lights for flowereing, like less light then the 2700K lights that i have now? But still cfl light bulbs right?

that might have been me but now seeing the plant in question i dont think your underwatering, nutes is what it probably needs... how old is that, its doing better than mine... although mine is about poised to turn into a giant bush since it now has main cola plus 8 branches
and id say over-watering, however there is a fine line between underwatering and killing it, some people dry them right out to stimulate root production as the plant searches for its next meal, but that can stress it out too if done wrong. however if you over water repeatedly the roots wont develop properly and you wont get the plant you could have, or an extreme again would be death.
you will know if you over water, just always pay attention to what your plant is telling you.. if you have been watering alot and the leaves are droopy and listless then your probably overwatering.
