2 26 watt (6500k) cfls should be fine for 1 plant as long as you got the surroundings of the plant covered in either flat white paint or some type of reflector mylar, tin foil is okay with cfls, emergency blankets ect ect.

You want to flower your plant once it's mature around 12 inches with at least 8 nodes. Just make sure when you induce flowering in gets 12 full hours of light and 12 full hours on completly dark uniterupted nights.

remember when you flower you will need at least 6 23 watt (2700k) cfls surrounding your plant. :bigjoint:

When was the last water before the one you just did? Plants droop at niught, when over watered and under watered.

Like2smoke · Feb 3, 2009

maybe its over watered!!

pennywise619 · Feb 3, 2009

It might be, the best way to check for me is to feel the weight of the pot, or by just sticking my finger in the soil about and inch. If damp soil sticks to your finger than it's to early to water.

lol unbelievably tiny! haha. i thought mine was small at one month.
Dont ever use just one 40w light on a grow.. comlete waste of time.

im using one CFL light and mine is a bit bigger than this at only two weeks. Maybe your light schedule is wrong, im doing 18/6 since anything over 14 hours is good for veg. and i got mine 3 inches from the tops, I consistenly check the height by putting my hand to the tops (without touching them of course) and testing for heat from the light, if i feel a little bit of heat i move it up a half inch or so. check your watering schedule as well, i water mine two to three times a day very lightly and only when the top inch or so isnt damp. use pure/filtered water.

I hope this helps but im no pro. i am in the process of getting a y-connector so i have two lights shining down on my baby. :leaf:
