8 weeks since putting it in the soil ?
considering the fact that the plant look like it was topped, it looks fine to me.

What do yall mean they need to sleep how do i make em sleep?
by either going to a 18/6 light schedule or if u want to flower to 12/12....the sleep time is the dark time. plants look good, small because of your minimal light, but its all good. u could get some stronger cfl, u said a couple were 100 watt, but I think they r 100 watt "equivalent" which is not the same. Looks like u have a sativa mix there. No noticeable pre-flowers showing so can't sex yet. Once u switch to 12-12, sex should show in a week or two.

it looks like sativa because of the skinny leaves,indicas tend to have fat leaves and lots of times tighter internodes

although many times internodes depend on how they were grown

Considering the lights you have, I'd say the plant is pretty healthy. Good job. There is group of people out there that say 24/0 light schedule is fine. Their argument is that mj will grow as fast as it's least limiting factor, meaning that weed will grow as fast as you can feed it and keep up.
Honestly, I haven't seen any evidence to the contrary. Light schedule is subjective. It's really up to you and what you think. People might say that because your plants are small, that that is proof that you need to turn the lights off occasionally. But your plants are small because your lamps are small.

Personally, I believe that plants need a dark time or "sleep," There is a lot of evidence that mj recovers in the dark. And that growth happens in the dark. But to each their own.

I think concidering your lights, you might as well start flowering now by switching to a 12 on 12 off schedule. Your lights are too small to flower a gigantic plant which is what your gonna get if you keep vegitating for a long time.
A sativa can be characterized by thin leaves, tall plants, long flowering times, and cerebral or "heady" highs that inspire creativity, and make you wanna get up and do stuff, as opposed to indicas that make you just wanna go to sleep. Indicas give you that narcotic, couchlock experience.
And the smaller plant to right looks good too. Good luck.

I just repeat what I read in another thread, Plants produce hormones during the night. you have no night cycle.
for me it took about a good 2 month for 2 of my plants to show sex, and some of em were still undetermined.
