so as of right now i am running 1 - 125 watt hps bulb, 2 - 42 watt cfl's in the 2700k light spectrum, and 4 23 watt cfl's daylight spectrum, will this hold steady for few days before i go and get a few more of the 42 watt bulbs?
OK so here is the new light set up... using 6 - 23 watt daylight cfl's and a 150 watt hps light that i found at the flea market for $10 for the first 5 days of flowering, then saturday i am going to switch out the daylight cfl's for 6- 42 watt soft white cfl's hoping that and hps will give em...

thanks man, makes a little sense, i didnt seem to be getting as much drainage as i thought i would be getting. btw nice grow you have me real curious with the cfl grow. how many cfl's are you using for flowering? and keep me informed on the yield!
Thanks guys! I started september 12th not november 12th, i think you misread that. They are just over a month old and are starting to show their preflowers it seems. They are sitting in about two gallons of soil and i have been watering between every two to three days or so. I am a very bad...
