Newbie needs desperate help, no buds!! (Update)

This is an update (kinda) of my reggie plant growing under a 13w cfl, with no nutes. I know from my previous post that my setup isnt what it should be, but I'm still looking for help! My plant has been on 12/12 for about 8 weeks now, but there are still NO BUDS!! -_- I would like to know if there will be ANY at all or were my 3 months of growing in vain, plz anyone who can give any insight or advice it would be greatly greatly appreciated! Also it seems as though my plant has a deficiency of some sort, you can see it on the fan leaves insight on what kinda of deficiency it maybe and what can I do to fix it would be awesome as well.
Thanks in advance,

No offense but your inability to type anything without spelling error makes me think all your posts should be locked in a section called "For all those who dropped out of high school"

Everyone is right your not going to yield almost anything off a 13w CFL. People who do get success with CFL grows normally use multiple bulbs of multiple spectrums per plant and they still don't touch HID yields and quality.

lol .. and that just show how intelligent you are ..

no time to look up evry word .. Im sure you get the meaning .. I guess your just a bit mad Bc. of your crapy haverst and my comment .. kool enough .. Np.

It's funny because you try to insult my "crappy harvest" but you have never seen my buds. It's like me insulting you for a having a 2 inch penis without proof.

I dropped out of high school and I can type faster/more correctly than most of you. Does this make me a grammar nazi? No.

That makes perfect sense, thanks for the advice

re-veging a plant can be a long process, its very important to ensure the plant has fully shifted back to veg prior to flowering it a second time in order to reduce deformations including but not limited to developing both male and female flowers. This can take anywhere from 1 to 3 months in my experience, just to get it back to full veg, then i feel a min of 2 weeks should be allowed for fresh, new, non-deformed growth. This normally results in a fairly large unruly plant dew to the way a plant branches, again not a trait to be considered desirable.

i have tried it a few time with limited success, generally ending up with a fairly small amount of lower quality bud, with respect to the amount of time invested.

it doesn't mean it can't be done, and generally is the result of realizing you want to keep a strain after flowering it and never taking any clones. This typically means you never really intend to reflower the plant but rather to clone it once it is healthy and flower the clones.

Oh that's why most people use a 1000 watts of light per 4x4 area, at least you didn't waist too much electricity. Put it outside and you might get something.

Those are buds, like scroggy said, the only buds you will see they'll stay that small most likely, 13w is absolutely nowhere near enough, sorry pal.

It's funny because you try to insult my "crappy harvest" but you have never seen my buds. It's like me insulting you for a having a 2 inch penis without proof.
I think he thought you were the OP and frankly it is a crappy harvest... not the growers fault just the light. So chill :) we need more peace on a stoner forum, isn't that what cannabis stands for basically?

Everyone is right your not going to yield almost anything off a 13w CFL. People who do get success with CFL grows normally use multiple bulbs of multiple spectrums per plant and they still don't touch HID yields and quality.
250w of CFL (2 big fat ass 125's) for me yielded more than 250w of HPS so not always true, if you equate the wattage you will yield the same, it's all about placement!

Stay Frosty!

are you sure, that seems to be about the absolute maximum a plant could handle, if i only had 4x4 i would opt for a 600 but that's just me. i'm not saying your wrong at all, i'm just saying i think you are misleading him about the amount of light needed. bleaching and heat are going to be major issues in a 4x4 area and co2 would be a nightmare trying to use 1000watts at full power. If you had AC and a sealed room you would be in business tho and in for a some sick shit but thats alot higher end than most people are looking for.

I know your here to try to get back at me for calling you out for thinking a reflector and ventilation for your grow are the same thing so just peace out bro before I make you look like a fool here too.

Plus I don't know what your going for with this but I hate America.
 
I believe the numbers were 75 w per plant, forgot the "equivalent" ideal in lumens. Just a general rule of thumb, 13 w will never get you anything worth the time to grow. Unless you are really small, like honey i shrunk the kids small.

You can use less, but will not get the density that you will like, the pic in my avatar is under a 400. It can happen. If you are stuck in a room that is only 4x4, 1000 watts would be a lot and I agree a 600 would be a better choice. But in in my last 4x4 tent I ran a 600 watt light with 240 watts of side lighting, because the I was to happy with the density of the buds, that's just me..JR
