Oh man I'd say at least 3 weeks.
Mine looked like that a couple weeks ago and I say I have 2-3 weeks left still.

CFL flowering takes longer

With my CFL grow I only have to flower for 6 to 7 weeks. The trichs are pretty much 60/40....Just cut down 2 plants got about 3 o's total off both of them...

i agree with you to a certain extent,but if you do things right growing under either hid or cfls youll get more weight using hids,so ppl growing shitty plants under hids or cfls aint the lights fault,its theres,,,,,,,,,,,,,
anyway you can grow decent bud using cfls without a doubt,however i think what (the haters lol) saying is why do some ppl buy about 20cfls when they could just use 1 hid light and get better results,,,but nevermind,cfls if used right do a descent job,im sure most of us have smoked some amazing weed that was grown using cfls,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,peace
I don't Know about anybody else, But the main reason I whent cfl was I could buy 2 23 wat cfls for not much and start my grow. I bought more lights as I went. I now have 9 23 wat and 2 42 wat bulbs. So a total of 291 wats.
The best thing is when plants are small I can run on 4 23 wat bulbs, and don't have to run a 400 wat hps the whole grow. This way I will pay less to run my lights for the whole grow than someone with an equal amount of wats..
Pluss on a budget it can be hard to save up enough for the high dollar hid all at once. Tho some day I hope to have enough room to have hid lights, now the cfls are doing there job! :peace:peace man:peace:

Wow, I dont understand why certain ppl continue to hate on others on these forums!! Why dont you "tough guys" go pick a fight with somebody on my space or something, ppl here dont want to hear this shit, and another thing to the ppl that post just to get there status higher then go around talking shit like their the "gods of growing", give me a fuckin break!! Were all here trying to get/give advice on how to grow, well at least most of us are, but I guess the reality is that all of us arent the peace loving, chill ass people that smoke the ganja, thier some pretty miserable M.F. out there that need a hug!!

Advice is free, that means you can take it or leave it!!

What works for one person to grow may not work for another:peace:

Well with all that aside here are pics of my 2 girls, 8 days into flowering/cfl grow

Hipsinking, yo go to your fav head shop. Buy a 30x scope. Den once u get back check your shit with the 30x scope if the buds' trichcomes are 35-45% amber in colour, flush it for a week, check the trich's again, once 60-70% of the trich's are amber in colour. Then and only then...harvest. Also, i like to pluck the buds that are 75% (trich amber). This gives the lower nuggets time to ripen like the ones above.
Jus an idea, good luck.
PUFF PUFF PASS!

For the record - my first grow was CFL, and now have moved on to HPS. But I know everybody isnt in the position to use HID so I dont bug people about it. I grew some killer under CFL, I grew some killer under HPS, neither time was I worried bought weight, just smoke. But the whole thing boils down to this - Some people like oranges, some people like apples - neither is better than the other because it isnt about the LIGHT people its about accessing your SITUATION and growing to it.

*Gone from thread now*
I think that this mite be the most diplomatic post in this thread
