2X CFL and a 150 Hps

So this my second grow, my first was with all CFLs so I decided to add a 150W HPS especially for the flowering cycle. The plant seemed to respond well to the mixture of the lights, although I think I've watered it too much. The seed was bag, but I'm adding some durban clones tomorrow to this growroom.

Anyway this I will update with pictures, but here's where I'm at now:

Lights:
1X45 W CFL
1X100W CFL
1X150 HPS

Grow room is very small, but gets very good ventilation. It's only about 2X2X3.



Here's the day I moved it inside:





And then The Newest at about 30 days, 23 outdoor, 7 in the closet

 
Nah not yet, I'm going to wait a while because I use that slow relase soil, last time I got nute burn with the same stuff so I usually wait until I put them in 12/12. The nodes on this plant are really close together, so I'm thinking it's going to be bushy looking.

I'm thinking about flowering in 10-15 more days, give or take . The fan leaves still have to grow alot it seems but the stem is getting thick.

If you get some kinda bugs don't be suprised...
I've always heard you should never bring an outside plant inside...due to the bug problem.

Not trying to rag on you, it looks good, just trying to help.
Might want to at least spray her now b4 you have a problem...just my 2 cents.
Good luck bro!
 
yeah bugs are def. a concern, they started to eat my old plant when I took some soil from my compost heap inside (what a mistake!). I kept this plant on a concrete patio about 4-5 feet from my lawn but I have not noticed any pests yet. I usually just start the plants outside then move them inside after about a month b/c I don't have a vegging room.

Ya bra, I see the CFLs. I'm guessing you probably aren't even using your HPS yet, eh? Still small enough for just CFL's. With such a large container, over-watering could be an issue. With that size cotainer i'm guessing you'd only water maybe once a week. I bought one of those moisture readers for $15. It took all the guess work out of watering, which was very nice. Your plant looks healthy in all your photos, keep it up.
 
Gonna throw some more pics up later, these babies have gotten HUGE, one is about 5 feet and the other is about 2 feet. Should have some dank nugs to post up soon
