...continued.
added lights for 12 hour cycling. 26 watt bulb for each plant.
Purple Martian:
Blue City Diesel
My plants are looking nice and healthy and green.
Im likely going to switch to flowering some time in late April or mid May, depending on the size of the plants, so i can start the possible long flowering time.

Yup, definitely seeing some pre-flowering "mini buds" on the stems.
Im debating on going big for the hell of it or keeping the plant smaller to maximize CFL efficiently...

Yeah, with CFLs going big likely isnt a big idea. But since im such a new grower, cant help but be curious about what would actually happen.
Maybe i will switch to flower at 2 ft tall.....
I also have some photos coming soon.

So i finally got a one month subscription for a supporter account.
But there was a glitch and it got messed up. Waiting on admins to fix it then i will post some photos. My plants are really bushy and are loving the daily temps of mid spring.

Alright! I can finally update with pics! Goekills fixed my support account. Thanks man. Next time i will try on my computer first. Never had issues with computers.
Ok, for the update.
This is from May 4th. I going to do a more recently hopefully later today (if i have time).
Purple Martian:
Blue City Diesel:
Found this little yellow guy chilling on a BCD leaf. Sadly, i found him dead inside one of my CFLs that lights my BCD 24/7. He flew too close to the Sun. He didnt know his Greek mythology. Poor guy. Rest in peace.
In memory of Little Yellow.
Hopefully i will get some May 19th photos today. Im planning on switching to flower mode once i buy the 2400k bulbs i need. Need more moolla..

May 29th 2017 Update:
Purle Martian:
As u can see, i burnt my top leaves cause i wasnt adjusting my lights enough. But got some cool pics.
Blue City Diesel:
I adjusted the left light to the outside to help prevent burning. I burnt some top leaves here too. Definitely getting height with this sativa dominant BCD. Havent been watering it enough but im trying to be better at it. Getting lazy thou.
I just ordered 8 26watt 2700K bulbs for my two plants. Each plant gets 100watts, hopefully thats enough. Might need more later. Likely. I will be starting the flowering phase this week im guessing. Also need another timer and sockets for the extra bulbs.

So i almost gave up on my plants. I almost threw in the trash cause of the severity of my spider mite infestations. But i refuse to give up.
Bought some triple-threat NEEM oil/pyrthins mix and some lady bugs. My blue city diesel is nearly dead
The purple martian is getting attacked hard. So im going to hope for the best. If it really comes down to it, i. Gunna clone some cuttings and just start over
No pictures cause my plants look fuckin dead
