I've smoked out of a bong. It puts out a lot of smoke but for my situation a little to much. I'll go with the piece. Oh and My Bubble isn't flowering automatically which means saturday its going into 12/12

Nice, what nutes are you going to use during flowering?

I only smoke the occasional joint, and vaporize at all other times. There is so many advantages, including taste and conservation of your precious herb. But having a more pure and clean high that you get from a low temp vape, is the best selling point for an all day user like myself. I even have a little stellar AA powered vape called the Magic Flight Launch Box for my lunch break on days where i work 12 hours or more. Sometimes, a few vape puffs can really put me at a new perspective.

sticking with big bloom until i can identify a preflower then i'm going tiger bloom. No molasses because before that became the big thing everybody was on straight organic nutes.

I haven't posted any new pictures since the 11th so I'll post some updates tomorrow. It will be the 32nd? day of 12/12. Major difference I'd imagine since the last pictures posted. Getting so anxious. I'm hoping I only have a few more weeks left. Monday will be 5th week of 12/12. Not sure exactly how many days/weeks of flowering. Need to pick up a pocket microscope so I can get a better look at the trichomes. I skipped out on watering today. Soil was still a tad bit most so I'll water them tomorrow.

for using cfl's, you are getting close to the same results as my 400 Watt HPS. Keep up the good work man.

Thanks. I'm quite shocked by how they look. I ended up buying a pocket microscope. I've noticed few amber trichs. On the sour cream it looks like 40-50% of them are cloudy with only a couple amber here and there. On the bubblelicious it looks like over half of them are cloudy, with no noticeable amber trichs.
On a side note, pocket microscopes are cool. I've been looking at everything I can find under it. I forgot how awesome it was to use a microscope.

Man My bubble still hasn't shown sex. Its been about 3 days under 12/12 But its 8 1/2" tall though. Its blowing up and growing leaves like no tomorrow and yet i see no signs of even male or female flowers.
EDIT: I went over the whole plant with my 10X designer loupe. And i noticed 2 spots that could be preflowers. Not sure if they are though but i did spot them on the stem in between the new branch and the one connected to the main stem. About the 4th or 5th node up. without magnification they look like really thin hairs with magnification they are pear shaped formations. i only seen two of them so if i see more in the next few days of 12/12 i'll post pics or something.

It took about a good solid 2 weeks of 12/12 before I was certain they were females. Well the sour cream. The bubble was trying to hermie but I fixed that.
Thanks, yea I think I'll follow your route and get a 400w HPS and a waterfarm for my next grow.

what camera are you using to get your close up shots? i'm in the market for a new digital camera and would like to buy another that can take some good macro shots

A canon powershot, I forget which model number.

I use the canon Power Shot A1100 IS and it takes fabulous macro shots. In fact, I use it to inspect for male sacs now instead of my 30x loupe. It is amazing to load them into paint and zoom in and see thousands upon thousands of trichs on a single leaf. 
Good camera at a great price.

Yea, I was wanting to grow one monster plant at a time.
Yea for the price it is a amazing camera. I have a Sony as well, it was the same price as the Powershot, but the Sony is garbage. I've only used it a handful of times. Completely not worth the money.I use the canon Power Shot A1100 IS and it takes fabulous macro shots. In fact, I use it to inspect for male sacs now instead of my 30x loupe.

Do you think you can build a 5 gallon bucket dwc.Very cheap and easy to build.You can grow your 1 plant inside that.

What's a dwc? I'm sure I can, I like building stuff.
