I vegged these babies for 60 days because the first month i only had them under 1 75watt 2' grow light.. (LOL) needless to say i started before i found this sight.. after doing a little research i decided to let them vegg for 60 days so they could get bigger, and bigger is exactly what happened..

I have a total of 15 26-watt 2,700k CFL's 1,750 lumens each on 4 plants.. In the last 4 weeks of vegging they have literally doubled in size and mt tallest is 25inches..

I topped 2 of the 4 just to experiment and WOW they look good compared to some on this sight..

I have noticed since i put all this new lighting in they dont look quite as healthy as they did with less light, hopefully you guys and girls can give me some advice on how they are looking..i have noticed little greenish- whitish hairs protruding from where the branch meets the stem, im hoping they are females, maybe its a little too early to tell, WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK???:bigjoint:

Plants look heathy man! I wouldnt worry too much about them not lookin as good as they did, u said u just topped them? they could be under a little stress, they will probably bounce back, I think u need some time in 12/12 to see if they are ladies, usually about 2 weeks into flowering u will really be able to tell. if you see little ball-like things right where the stem connects to the main branch (sometimes the balls are in little clusters) toss em out right away. I would suggest u start flowering now man, sometime the plant can double in size again after switching to flowering

Yea, they are on their first 12/12 lights on.. I put em in the dark for 28 hours before turning the lights back on.. Do you think 91 degrees is too hot? They look a little wilted? maybe? I topped 2 of them 3 weeks ago, they both made an outstanding recovery!!

YES! 91 is too hott, that explains the curling leaves thing. U need it as close to 70 degrees as possible bro. Try to fiugre out some ventilation quick

where did you get that thing to hook all those flooros up to ??
Its just a 6 bulb vanity for a bathroom, I found it at a thrift shop for 5 bucks, cut the end off and used an extension cord to plug it in..

I also bought 6 y adapters so i can use 12 bulbs instead of 6..
